HiVivo for ASUS VivoWatch

Like the watch, but the app really need lots of work. Most of the time will hang upon launch. Am using Motorola Z Play.

Good

Love the Vivo Watch, but for goodness sake Asus, upgrade the app so that it doesn't constantly lose connection or something. Sort it out now, as i have to Uninstall and reinstall the app to get it to pair again. That's unacceptable.

Have never really got it right, metrics have varied wildly as the software has changed on the phone. Neither has the app ever displayed exercise time to the second, so if no use the reasonably enthusiastic fitness people.

Watch crashes several times a week and data is lost each time. On 3.20 firmware when this started. Had been a lot more stable in the past. Lousy when things get worse.

The app crashes all the time causing the watch to lose connection, but other than that, all is good. Out of all of the fitness watches that I have tried so far, the Vivowatch is by far my favorite. It is quite simplistic in its execution, but that is one of its strengths. The few things that it does, it does flawlessly. Like great battery life, solid tracking, and third party notifications. There is a great foundation here that can be used to make this product perfect. In future updates I would like to see some of the following: - resting heart rate tracking - notifications to be stored on the watch to scroll through - Bluetooth music controls - Bluetooth disconnection warning - descriptions of the icons in the app - more detailed sleep tracking; REM, deep, light, awake - exercise mode being a menu to select different exercises - support for multiple types of exercises; swimming, cycling, weight lifting, etc. - smart coaching - training plans - custom watch faces - manually adding workouts from the app - preset message responses - connecting with friends - activity achievements - reading full messages on the watch - manually adding sleep from the app - a find my phone feature I look froward to the great improvements to come. :)

I was hoping to use this device as a smartwatch 'lite'. Unfortunately this app only provides the bare minimum. These are just some of the points that bother me: Make the message interface more comfortable (display whole message, missed message telltale, multiple messages). Syncing the data is way to slow. Please make the auto-backlight feature optional. The arbitrary scaling of the graphs is horrible for comparing different days. More (configurable) watchfaces. Display more info. Smart Lock support.

Could have been good but it's let down by poor development support. Accuracy of the vivowatch is not great either, especially during exercise.ASUS seem to have forgotten about this product which is a shame.

The app requires bluetooth restart if you sync, or the app will fail to get any information from the device. The app also sends out constant bluetooth connect requests to the watch that do not stop until you sever the bluetooth connection to the watch from your phone. It has become so bad, I have abandoned using the watch at all, as it will ask me to press the button on the side of the watch every 2 mins without fail. On top of all this, the ASUS team has clearly responded to this issue in the comments, but has failed to provide a solution within 6 months of the issue being known, or failed to communicate whatsoever. Great hardware has been let down severely by this app, and I cannot recommend the device to anyone until ASUS fix the issues.

Last year it had sync issues. Now all is fixed. Just you have to sync your watch daily basis. If Asus launches new vivowatch I will be first to buy.

New Lenovo Essential Tab 7. Synced 2 weeks ago but no more - some Bluetooth issue, paired in OS but app won't connect anymore. It might be OS security - got notifications but can't control it - Bluetooth and app runtime.

After upgrade, all notifications does'nt work in my smartwatch, verry confused. Restart and all method I try but it still not work.

I don't even get all my alerts. I AM SENDING THE WATCH BACK FOR A REFUND.

Need more improvement my watch keep dying with white screen

Si potrebbe fare di meglio, la sincronizzazione tra telefono e cellulare deve avvenire in modo automatico, non manuale... Inoltre quando si cambia il layout dell'orologio si blocca

Why I cannot have Network function (to share my records with friends) in my app?

How about an option to change settings in the app for syncing with the watch e.g. distance to Miles/kilometres

I cant find my messaging app in the settings

Spesso perde la connessione

Can't showing up the notifications ..

Needs updating/polishing. Watch only lasts for 4 days. When opening application it would just hang so maybe it was always trying to connect. Had to do clear cache and then it re-opens. Everytime I open the app it takes awhile to sync.

Pretty good app ,but unfortunately auto sync not working most of the time between devices, required restart Everytime. Maximum cell life three days as per my one month experience. Improvements expecting. Using latest version as you mentioned .

Hope the date displayed on analogue watch face can be made bigger. Another request is, make it possible to display owner's name on the watch face. And, make it possible to use as Stopwatch, countdown watch. Tq

Good apps, please improve with more option setting notifications, sometimes auto synchronize not working / failed

Since the last update, can't connected/ paired with hp.. very sad..

Dashboard updated online and works really well. However after today's update to "fine tune Bluetooth" my watch keeps asking to confirm connection with graphic and have to press watch button, seriously doing my head in now. My watch is buzzing every minute with the connection press any key to confirm. This is awful. Please un-fine tune the Bluetooth

Since the last update, app notifications aren't working any more. And please make the auto-backlight feature optional - it just doesn't work as intended, wastes battery power and is very annoying at night.

Nice watch and app so far... but, need to improve more than just health function... example, message notification like social media can't read more detail for every text on message. Its only just like inform that we have a message... its suppose to be complete. Message and weather information are become our need on activity... put the weather information on it...and watchface are limited.... please develop it more creative and artistic watchface choices ...

It used to be fairly reliable but since the last firmware update whenever I try to connect the device it gives an error saying failed to get the power information on the device. Worthless device at the moment. Please issue a fix asap. Update have tried to re-pair and reset it multiple times and.... Still not working. Please fix this. Update...still broken. It worked fine before last firmware update.... Not now. It's crap.

Was working well after 2 weeks will not sync with my watch.

Very poor development support, used to sync with my hudl2, no longer, software on hudl2 has not changed. Also got an Umi Super phone, will pair with phones Bluetooth functionality, but not using HiVivo app functionality. And the developers response below is typical of the standard of support on offer. 8/8/16, still rubbish at pairing, and I'm using an Asus device, developer just can't get it right.

Every time we install after reinstalling to transfer records the sensor red and green light indicating heart beat does not work and watch dial cannot be read in the dark

Have to reinstall app regularly to get the watch to connect to the app the distance does not use stride length for computing distance travelled and is therefore inaccurate and useless. Seems to count steps OK and is a reasonable watch but otherwise pretty disappointing. Can you fix these issues?

This is a great watch. It is the best watch ever. If only it worked as well for android as it does for apple. Like being able to scroll through messages, being able to read more than one message, being able to scroll throughout an entire message. All of those you can do on iphone but you cannot on an Asus Zen phone 2. Why do they hate me for buying their phone? Are they racist? They must hate me because I have small genitals.

I wore vivowatch in many nights and did not track my sleep pattern. Not a single data recorded. Does it have to be activated? Also it shows the heart rate way off.

Steady progress on functionality, looking forward to new watch faces and being able to scroll down on notifications of SMS & emails.

Good

One year on & vivowatch still incredibly inaccurate. Heart rate in exercise mode still way off, sometimes 45 beats +- than gym equipment! Sleep mode: if you wake in the night, press buttons on the watch, the watch still thinks you are asleep even though you are pressing it's buttons, you have to take steps before it realises you are awake! Still no monthly stats, no motivational messages, a completely inferior product compared to jawbone / fitbit etc. When will I have an accurate & useful fitness device?

Asus zenfone ze551ml 5.1, con firmware vivowatch 3.07: Ogni due o tre giorni sono costretto a disinstallare l'applicazione e reinstallarla perché non riesce più ad inviare le notifiche al vivowatch, nemmeno con l'app aperta. Aggiornamento per gli sviluppatori: Quando accade, riesco a sincronizzare il dispositivo senza problemi, ma le notifiche non le riceve più. Non ci sono errori.

While my Polar H7 reads 130 bpm, VivoWatch reads 190-200 bpm. Please add a function to disable the hearth sensor. It's useless while exercising. Only consumes a ton of battery. Thank you.
