UPDATE: Ever since the Nougat update, my Band2 no longer syncs even after hard resets, reinstalls, etc. Does everything it needs to but would like a few nicities. Allowing us to set custom wallpapers on the band and setting custom colors in the app would be nice.

It was good at first but now it's constantly crashing and it's draining my battery. Will have to uninstall if not fixed soon. 2 week update: app is still constantly crashing and can't even access anymore. Bluetooth connection keeps getting lost and I do not get all the notifications on my band.

The app was working really well for me until my phone (ZTE Axon 7) received the nougat update. Now it won't work. I've reset the Bluetooth connection with my band 2 multiple times, have uninstalled and reinstalled the app several times, and restarted the phone. After reinstalling the app and restarting the phone, it syncs for about an hour (notifications work and info updates), but then stops working.

Had to change my review. The band is great. Customer service isn't. Ran into the common issue that people have where it stops working. Had to wai almost 4 months to getva refund since their main factory stopped making the bands. I also didn't get a full refund. I spent 220 on the band plus tax and only got 170 back. Thanks Microsoft.

It would be nice if the graphs for heart rate were consistently scaled. Walks in morning regularly go off the chart. But then, Microsoft have dropped the product so why would they fix the app?

Hilda Jackson

Very disappointed with the Band2. Has been replaced twice. It stopped working last week, (third time). The warranty ended Feb. 13, 2017. My husband's also stopped working in January of this year and warranty ended last year. It is my understanding Microsoft no longer makes the Band2, but they still make the Band1. Think I will look into another brand.

I am not a great fan of the current layout. The notifications are hit-and-miss. The music controls don't work if you have bluetooth controls. It does not support the Samsung stock email client for emails on the Band. Latest update broke the sleep tracking. Now i get 0 hours of sleep every night. Come on Microsoft, you have abandoned the band, why do you push updates to break the smartwatch completely? Latest update: phone detects high battery usage from app. -1 stars

Love the Band Hardware but after switching to Android the Band software is terrible. It crashes in the background multiple times everyday. I have to uninstall and reinstall constantly to get the app to open. MS has not only killed the hardware they are not fixing bugs that make it frustrating to use.

Adam linnane February 21, 2017

I love all the features and layout of the app. However, I am annoyed how I just got a Microsoft Band 1 and Microsoft band 2 just came out meaning Microsoft having given up on updating it after just one keyboard update! Also no support for Cortana on Android!

J Willow May 17, 2017

My activity history doesn't show up on the app. I have reinstalled numerous times and I did submit a report to you about this but got no reply. Good band let down by the app

Rob V March 29, 2017

March 29 2017 - the Band does not work on lg g5 on Nougat but DOES work on Nexus 6 on Nougat. So it is not a band issue; it is a phone issue. Still love using it every day, for sleep tracking, exercise tracking, steps etc.

Alan Roth May 13, 2017

Love it. The problem is that because the Band 2 has been discontinued, there will soon be no way to use it. Can't you allow other hardware (Garmin, Android 2.0 watches, etc.) to connect?

Kenneth Carlson February 4, 2017

I loved this device too bad no one caught on. App was updated per request. Band 2 had everything without having to have phone present for exercise and awesome display. App didn't require Band for basics.

Paul Cooper March 11, 2017

It's getting worse. It used to consume all my battery but now crashes all the time. It's making my band unusable. I have ordered a gear fit. Such a shame

Has nice detailed workout break down. Sleep tracking feature is great. New update now collates steps taken from my phone too. So now even if I am not wearing my band my activity is tracked!

David Carroll April 20, 2017

Used to work. Doesn't anymore... That is all you need to know. Update: It is now several months later. Still not working. At this point, Microsoft should be refunding anyone who purchased the Band.

Marsha Walker April 23, 2017

Samsung Note 5. Won't sync...wants me to do a factory reset. NO! I don't want to lose all my previous data. Get it together Microsoft.

Mike Upton February 4, 2017

Cortana integration doesn't work anymore. More of Microsoft intentionally hobbling a potentially great ecosystem. Why do I bother?

February 27, 2017

White screen at sign-in and nothing. 2 stars because of Win10 app, which is good. Edit: Figured the bug out, but had to dig online... Bumped from 2 to 4 stars.

Terry Middleton February 19, 2017

The Microsoft Band 2 is outstanding...I've never seen so much data. It has completely changed my life. I've lost 20.5 lbs and move 1000% more than ever. I PRAY Microsoft keeps this product around. I'm going to buy one for my wife and daughter. 8000% better than a FitBit, which is a great product also. The MS Band 2 would be, in my opinion, the Bentley of wearables.

Desmond Ratcliffe February 22, 2017

On my 20th install can't get it to sink with my band. Band works with the phone but app can't see the band

Michael Scache March 6, 2017

Apparently this app is no longer supported. When trying to pair with Android, I keep getting an "unknown error" occurring that loops every attempt. Piss poor effort by MS.

Puneet Bharal February 1, 2017

Love the app and band. Guided workouts are the best feature. Very disappointed ms killed the band and health lines

Serg Nik March 7, 2017

App crushes too often despite the new name. And why don't you, guys, store some data locally? While offline I can't check my yesterday activities - is this normal??

Matthew Schofield March 1, 2017

Regularly crashes while syncing with WiFi enabled. Just disable WiFi to Sync. Otherwise, app is great.

piggypages April 13, 2017

Fix the app Microsoft!! Why does it should my calories burned for the entire 24 hours when it's only 7am?! This has been an ongoing issue!

Daniel T February 26, 2017

Doesn't work, constantly crashing. My band 2 is now worthless

Achilleas Portarinos March 19, 2017

3 out of 5 times the app freezes while syncing the phone needs a restart to go on with the sync. Shame Ms

February 11, 2017

Have to reinstall daily to get it to sync worst app in the world period

Kevin Crombie April 1, 2017

It won't work since the nougat update. So has to be a 1 out of 5!

David Schenk April 29, 2017

This worked well while the band itself lasted. Only had for 8 months and the band broke.

Daniel Cheung March 13, 2017

After updated to Nougat, the band won't sync. And sometime the app freeze.

Victor Milovanov March 7, 2017

Stopped working after 2/26/2017. Does not sync to band at all anymore

Elizabeth [Definitely Vegan] February 20, 2017

App won't sync with the band! Extremely annoying!

OVN 1211 February 7, 2017

Doesn't connect to my account. Even after a half hour of waiting. Please help

February 25, 2017

Stuck forever on "We're logging you in to your Microsoft account..."

Hamish Robison March 21, 2017

Continually get 'an error occurred with your band' haven't been able to login for close to a year

Karen Alder March 4, 2017

Can't get app to pair with my band 2 and it's really annoying. Was fine until recently. I hope it's sorted out soon.

February 16, 2017

Sync stopped working a few weeks back, sort of vital functionality.

Mariolis Molina April 24, 2017

It's alright. At times it is not accurate.
