It's a basic app the works as well as it needs for basic watch. It scores low due to it constantly registering as a Trojan, or severe at risk app in antivirus or security programs. This results in needing to uninstall to use secure apps such as banking.

I purchased a play+ ace watch for Christmas for my 8yr old son due to the fact it said you can track your kids where abouts. First of all you can not track them at all!!. And I have to sync my phone calls, messages, photos and files to the app so you can det the time. I can not turn any of these options off so when ever he is around me basically he gets all my notifications and calls to his watch.. how ridiculous is that.. it shouldn't be a kids watch if you can't control it. And fix the bugs!!

Very basic app. My wife has Fitbit which records much info. This is so limited. Used to restart at zero every day now it just keeps adding so now shows 48k with Galaxy Note 8. I want to see daily not total. I dont know why it changed. Also very few watch faces to choose from. I thought over the year they would have upgraded but no. So yesterday I bought a Hawaie. More expensive but at least tells me what I want to know. I am very disappointed as I really like the look but app is too basic.

Don't panic - the app works well. I saw the reviews and thought my Kogan Pulse+ was going to be a waste of $$ but I had literally zero issues. Make sure you select the right watch on the home screen, as some look similar. Turn on your phone's Bluetooth and you're good to go!

Unpairs randomly, have to reboot the phone and watch to get it to pair again. The reported temperature is useless, it doesn't update unless you login it your phone and start the app. Even then the temperature is wrong. Today its 33°C here, the app reports it as 22°C

Would not recommend app for Android users. My partner and I both purchased the Kogan AMOLED watches, his for iPhone, mine for Android. Apple picked up both watches to install and two other watches in house but my Android couldn't pick up anything. Total waste of money for Android users.

The setup process is unintuitive and badly designed. A simple revamp with someone who understands UI and normal expectations would score you an extra 2 stars, probably from most people here who have rated the app. Also no Discord or Slack push?

It connected pretty easy after uninstalling and reinstalling. All the features seem to work fine except the personalisation of the watch from the app. Ive been using it for a week now and no connection issues. I run on android.

The app works fine on my Kogan M1 but it is very.. VERY basic. I would like far more than 10 dials to choose from, I'd like a dial designer to be honest or at the very least, the ability to set my own background. The ability to scale the "always on" time would also be great as I don't always have my glasses on. All in all it's almost boringly basic, but very easy to use. I don't dislike it & that's the only reason it gets 3 stars.

I cant use it it worked when i first got the watch for my kid at start of this year but won't sync cant set the time cant do anything with it my cheap kogan fit tracker works fine with its app. I will be throwing the watch away as it was clearly a waste of my money i have done all the correct things to sync the device but it continues to say it is already it deems it completely useless i have done everything i can from uninstalling reseting and everything else troubleshoot has suggested
