Why Beurer accompanied only a Quick Start Guide, is beyond me, because it does not explain everything, and there is also on the homepage no Biedienungsanleitung to download, that's a shortcoming. So we are not told how an empty battery even reports that the display can be turned on with a double tap on the display. How the alarm works, is not explained. poorly made!
The display itself can be easily read and lit only briefly. This saves power and also explains the long term of more than one week. it's good. Even the shop is simple with a kind clamp. During charging, the charging status will be displayed briefly, otherwise not. The shop is relatively nimble. For me it was from a bar hours until fully charged battery is less than 3. Inductive charging would of course have been the crowning. By chuck 2 contacts are touched and probably also ensure that the sensor does not but is only splashproof waterproof. For an activity sensor actually an absurdity.
The software runs with me on a LG G2 Mini with Android 4.4. Each time you start the program until it crashes again, can be followed but then opened easily. Unfortunately, it asks every time whether the NFC sensor to be activated. The currently only the sensor is used, NFC is not necessary. Unfortunately, the constant demands can not be stopped, that is poorly written.
The program is designed for a variety of products. Unnecessary program parts can not be turned off, unfortunately. Even that is bad solved. The synchronization is again easily by pressing the sensor button mehrsekündiges. I have never had any problems with the synchronization system via Bluetooth 4.0. For sleeping and the activities, the settings can change and as table. Properly managed, the presentation is not, but functional enough. If you sign up at Beurer, the data is also stored in the cloud, it however, I have omitted. Thus, the data are stored only locally on the smartphone.
