The problem is the disconnection and reconnection of the bracelet:
- When you leave the area of your Bluetooth phone, the vivosmart loses connection: this is normal. The bracelet vibrates even notify you he has no Bluetooth connection. All is well!
- When you come back in the Bluetooth range of your phone, the problem arises: the reconnection does not happen. While it is expected that it will automatically reconnect as any bluetooth device that has already been paired with the phone ... Worse, that your vivosmart reconnects again, he must completely rebuild the pairing step reentrant in the 6-digit code that will give you back the bracelet (coupling). In other words, do dozens of times a day whenever you're away from your phone, it's just UNBEARABLE !!
You will see a colleague at distance 2 offices: one must réappairer ... You go to the bathroom: you have réappairer ... You will smoke, you have réappairer.
One solution is to never leave his cell from his pocket ... but in this case, what interest to see your notifications on the wrist if the phone is always with you ...
To dare to put this one star on this article I supports my arguments on my personal experience: I have a Nexus 4 version 4.4.4 stock.
But also on the support site (forum) Garmin at the thread: "Bluetooth pairing issues on Android 4.4.3 (Moto X)". A simple google search should be enough to find the link. (More than 11 pages ...)
The problem has been known for nearly two months by Garmin, which has continued as responding to all readers: If the phone is not in the list of compatible phones can not be helped if it not work .... No fix is coming from ...
So, I definitely recommend to all people without an Android phone Compatible listed by Garmin (11 phone only!).
A yes, last info: Apple, everything works fine .... except for iphone 6 !!! Even he has exactly the same problems!
In short, A buy only if your phone is compatible!
