Ratings and reviews

please fix the Bluetooth connection issue. it's really frustrating to deal with pairing the watch everyday because it disconnects everyday! it has been happening in the last few weeks only and I have had this watch with no problems since 2019! This is a terrible user experience and a bug that impacts a lot of us, so please fix asap.

Latest update made my Vivoactive 4 unable to connect. Do not update! Over time, they have gradually fixed things, as well as adding nice new features. Unfortunately, more recently, they've made some undesirable changes. The "recent" list in the strength section is no longer alphabetical, making it more difficult to find the exercises you want to record. And it no longer seems to be able to properly recognize exercises. Triceps presses show as "sit ups," Curls sometimes show as "unknown," etc.

7 months and you're still unable to: 1) connect or sync to your watch while networks are off but Bluetooth on. 2) w/ networks off, use the app to see any previously synced information besides what's shown on the tile cards 3) now "find my phone" only functions with the app in the foreground. While in the background: volume up (ring and media), unrestricted battery use, allowed to run in the background...nope, the only locator functioning is on the watch itself. -probably more probs yet to find
