Ratings and reviews

It seems to work great, I never experience any connectivity issues with my Fit2 band. I do wish there were more watch faces to choose from, though. And I wish there was a way to tweak the heart rate algorithm from the app; my band is always giving incredibly wrong readings (double my actual heart rate!) It needs either a way to adjust the heart rate or a way to discard individual points when in continuous monitoring mode.

A terrible app, you have to start it immediately after turning on your phone or it won't start. Lately it keeps shutting off by itself so I have to restart my phone to start the app. It usually takes a long time to sync with the band, especially on sleep and steps, and often it only does it partially and takes up to a few hours to do it completely. Sure hope this update improves syncing!

Anyone who deals with connectivity issues, make sure the plug-in is not restricted by "Battery Saver" feature of your phone. I turned off that feature on my device setting for the "Samsung Health" and the "Galaxy Wear" app, yet my Fit2 would still occasionally not register cycling speed and distance when I locked my phone. Apparently this plug-in is the most important among them all, so be sure to check the plug-in's permissions. 4 Stars because the feature made me lose track of precious cals :)
