Smartwatch Pro for Pebble for Negative User Reviews

✓ Stay away!The worth app I have had it crashed all the time and also interfered with my other apps. This is a profit making venture Stay away if you know what is good for you..DrosophilaeVersion: 1.1

✓ Not Great!This works as explained in description, but: 1. It needs to be the only app open and communicating with your pebble ie. RunKeeper or Official Pebble app both need to be closed. 2. It stops working after a period of inactivity. And 3. Doesn't support Caller ID, so will only show caller number if someone rings you. These are all issues with iOS but you should be aware, nevertheless..MarkrugmanVersion: 1.1

✓ UnreliableKeeps losing the signal so doesn't interact with the watch. Instead always says "loading" Save your money until a more reliable app comes on the market (hopefully).NusicfiendVersion: 1.1

✓ Calendars don't workCalendars don't work.Skkkk6781Version: 1.2.2

✓ Hasn't improved!I have had this app for a while now and I echo its unreliable connection issues raised by reviews of previous versions! The standard features are now covered by more reliable apps or actually built into the pebble firmware by default - the only feature left I want to use is the "Find iPhone" feature which has failed many times due to the app dropping its connection to the pebble! Whether this is an IOS power management issue or not - don't sell an app that doesn't work properly!.Ginge_orgVersion: 1.3

✓ Not what i expectedEverything works as advertised. Only thing-always need to go and refresh the app for everything to show up on my pebble. Need an update soon please, i paid $4 for this feature, it should be able to work 100%. Everything else, great job! 3 stars for now...Fcb_steveVersion: 1.1

✓ Unfair to change date format to US versionDate now comes as mm/dd/yyyy This was changed in the recent update as per their description. The is not fair. What about people who live outside US? We use dd/mm/yyyy in Australia. Can you not give us the option rather than force one particular date format (like the slider in location to choose imperial units) The pebble watch also stops communicating with this app if I don't open this app every few hours. So, "find my phone" is useless if you lost the phone few hours ago. Also, nothing else would work unless you open the app before trying to so something. I like the address feature, tells me where I am in terms if real address, easy to inform someone else..HumerusVersion: 1.1

✓ Mixed views now :-/Was working perfectly but won't since the recent app update for the pebble app. Please sort!.ItsonlymeeeVersion: 1.0

✓ Waste of $5This is a waste of money, it does not open twitter, calendar, reminders, or battery status it freezes.... only thing that works is the volume....Yode25Version: 1.1

✓ The App isn’t install & workAfter purchasing the app and installing, another app must be installed which has a problem, I request a refund..Mohammad2sVersion: 1.7.1

✓ Doesn't even workYou need the 2.0 version of the pebble app which isn't even out yet...The JokapooVersion: 1.2

✓ LameSave your money. Reminders don't push to watch and everything in the app would be better done on the phone. It adds nothing in way of a better pebble experience..Jackson2007Version: 1.1

✓ Needs a zero ratingDoesn’t work.Wang dangVersion: 1.7.1

✓ Not greatKinda feels like this app just hit to capitalize on people wanting Smartwatch+ on the App Store. Now that it has a competitor I can see just how little I like this one..IrrevanentVersion: 1.1

✓ The app.I am not sure why do you charge money for the app . It does not exist..Sorty.Version: 1.7.1

✓ DisconnectSold on this app just by the "find my phone" feature. That being said, it hardly ever works because the phone continues to disconnect from the app. Everything just says "loading..." There are no other apps connected, only this one. Only way for it to work is if I open the app on my iphone every hour or so. Fix please... Also if possible to implement what httPebble has that enables weather,altitude, etc, on specific faces, that would be great. I remember seeing one that displays the weather but shows disconnection from app as qell when disconnected..WillisxchungVersion: 1.1

✓ WorksThis app is still in the AppStore, even tho pebble isn’t. Please keep it online. I can find my phone using it, it works most of the time. I’m just happy it’s still up.Mehhhh 7783!4!4$38:Version: 1.7.1

✓ Decent app but…It seems to be hit or miss. Not really worth the price if it's not up to par. Often times it will not show music found. It will not allow volume control which is the only reason why I have in & got the app. It also seems to clash with other pebble apps & the app itself has crashed on the pebble. Hope it gets fixed soon..Sylar_OSVersion: 1.2.1

✓ Waste of money!!!Doesn't work. Utter rubbish. Don't waste your money..DJ EMILVersion: 1.1

✓ Was Excited... WAS!!!Long story short... It barely works... When I hit twitter or calendar, it just says loading for... Ever. Then maybe it will show up. I feel like I have to reconnect it constantly. If I have to pull out my phone to use it, it's pretty much useless. I'll just use my phone at that point. And to charge what they charge, I feel like they got over on us who were excited about the Pebble. I wouldn't buy it again of given the chance. Maybe in a while..AverageTechGuyVersion: 1.0

✓ Good but could be better.This is a decent app which adds good additional functionality to the watch. However it regularly loses connection and must be opened before reestablishment. this is quite frustrating especially for the price. Also, perhaps addition data such as weather would help improve the app. A good start with room for improvement!.The Doctor!!!!Version: 1.2

✓ Could be greatAfter reading mixed reviews for this, I thought I'd bite the bullet and buy it. I love the concept of the app and watchapp, however the connection issues blight the experience. When it's connected it's a really handy tool. However I'd like to remove features from the watchapp that I disable them in the iOS app. As it is, if I choose not to use Twitter or Location, I still have to scroll passed them in the watchapp. Whilst this isn't actually difficult, it does add more unnecessary button presses to get to say, battery. For now I'll not bother using the iOS app or watchapp until at least the loss of connection can be resolved..Mac.MadVersion: 1.4

✓ Didn’t work at allInstalled via 4S to watch running 1.4 this app failed to load in the watch, just got hung up in every option, none of the features worked so will be seeking a refund..Meatball66Version: 1.2

✓ Still limited functionIt's a great idea. Unfortunately, it's not useful enough. No pushed twitter, thus no real time notification if there's new tweet. Have to access twitter after several button pushes. Lagging in update battery information and calendar. Need a lot of improvement and more option to have direct access (reduces the number of pressing button)..Dewa WisanaVersion: 1.0

✓ Disappointing and expensiveOnly works on the odd occasion! Certainly not worth the high app price. Promises a lot but doesn't deliver! This may be the fault of Apple rather than the app BUT why then bother designing the app if it can't consistently do what it promises?.Ck12547Version: 1.1

✓ I should have listened to earlier reviewersI had lots of problems with my Pebble just to get it to work as promised but when I finally resolved these issues, I guess I got carried away and downloaded this app despite the reviews that warned me not to. I should have listened. It worked the first time but then froze everything and not only didn’t work but stopped my Pebble from doing everything except tell time. I trashed Smartwatch Pro and wish I had listened to the others who panned it. They were right.Mibany1Version: 1.2

✓ 1 star because I can’t give 0This app is totally useless. Thanks for taking my $3.99 and doing nothing but connecting to a free app..GabbysdadVersion: 1.7.1

✓ Wish it worked :-/I was excited to get this app working with my iPhone, it worked for a VERY short period of time (1-2 hours tops). After that nothing works… I've tried everything; disconnecting and re-connecting, removing the app completely from the pebble and iPhone and re-installing it, and nothing worked. :-( I really like the idea of this app but i wish it worked..JkuskowskiVersion: 1.1

✓ Not replacement for Pebble app!Since Fitbit bought Pebble, after I already bought my pebble time watch, the Support was let go quickly. I had restored my phone recently, and they no longer had the app available in the store. I had fallen in love with my pebble time, and was hoping this app would help me keep it going. I paid $4, and it does nothing that I can see. Don’t waste your money. This shouldn’t be on the App Store since it can’t do anything. I wish I could get a refund, and Fitbit would at least leave the app up for the products sold..Jmgant85Version: 1.7.1

✓ Smart watch proI can't believe I spent 5 buck on this app. Not worth 5 bucks maybe. 99.WiseguykevVersion: 1.1

✓ Battery data mismatchI'm not sure which is correct - the Pebble reports via its basic "low battery" symbol, but the Smartwatch app says the battery is at 80%. Other times, when I have the watch plugged in via USB and charging, the Smartwatch app will say the state is "unplugged" (It's not), and the charge level is 90% (untrustworthy). So something's not right with the communication with the watch to the app, and I'd recommend not buying this app until it's updated to work correctly..HappyPigVersion: 1.1

✓ Not badNot a bad app, however when I go to a calendar entry and click the middle button of my Pebble to select it, it just gives me the option to change the alert time, it doesn't show me the whole calendar entry details, which is what I was expecting, perhaps I'm wrong ?? The 'find my iphone' feature is quite handy. The twitter function is good, would be nice if the Pebble backlight stayed on a little longer though so you had time to read the display, not a fault of this app developer obviously..Thematrix211Version: 1.0

✓ Great app!But it would be nice if there was an option to display weather..ItsallaboutrichVersion: 1.2.1

✓ Do not purchaseNo longer supported but still charging.KTIOWVersion: 1.7.1

✓ Love it, but doesn't work for longI love this app! But it doesn't stay on the pebble. it will be good for about an hour, then just says loading, and never loads..LeggetteVersion: 1.2

✓ Depends on working pebble server. Do not buy.Since the server has been down, I have not been able to reload watch faces onto my Pebble. I brought this pp thinking I could install watch faces from the app, but every time you try to do that in the works you to pebble server which is down. This was a total waste of money. There's no point in by mishap at this point with the pebble servers down..Fearsome UnitVersion: 1.7.1

✓ Not reliable for current informationI would say this app is best as a remote, which I don’t use it for yet. I like having the calendar and the watch faces that use this app. Unfortunately, the limitations for this app may be beyond control, where losing connectivity is the ultimate frustration. This seems to be as an iOS issue but it happens regularly for myself. At this point you have to take your phone out. Not the point obviously. As much as I like being an early adopter with this watch and app, I can’t reliably show it off..NycboneVersion: 1.2.2

✓ Keep disconnecting and no syncing of scheduled remindersOften times the app will lose connection to the Pebble watch, even though the watch is still connected to the phone (weather updates, etc.). The only solution is to reboot the phone, which is less than ideal. Also, the reminders that are synced to the watch does not include the "Scheduled" list. So you'll see tons of reminders all out of order. I.e. you got 20 reminders and the first one is due 2 months from now, but the last one is due tomorrow. Too much scrolling!.LanwarriorVersion: 1.6

✓ So horrible, it s a rip off,It didn't even work at all. Money wasted.BunmilolaVersion: 1.7.1

✓ It did not work.Not work.ZseregVersion: 1.7.1

✓ Shame Apple limits this appIt does provide the ability to check all this data on your Pebble (Calendar, Twitter, etc), but only if the app is open and hasn't been running in the background for more than an hour. Otherwise, the app on the Pebble simply doesn't pull in the data needed. It must be understood that this is not a developer choice, but a limitation set by Apple. Still, it renders the app as more of a fun one-time thing rather than a permanent feature addition to the watch. Lets hope iOS 7 can offer something better..WinterJoeyVersion: 1.1

✓ Not worth itOnce you open it, there are quite a few Watch faces it offers. But most of them you have to purchase. It would be nice for maybe a 99 cent purchase but that's only because I like finding my phone with it, but really that's all it's capable of..Cab914Version: 1.7.1

✓ RDoesn't recognize either my calendar or my notifications . The only thing that works is my location so it is pretty useless!.COPD2013Version: 1.1

✓ Features good, but very unreliableAs others have said, when it works, it's great, but unfortunately most of the time it doesn't work. The watchface must have disconnected from the app and doesn't realise, doesn't prompt you for action, etc. Perhaps there are iOS limitations but in it's current guise I don't think this is reliable enough to release..Paul_MJVersion: 1.1

✓ Works, for a whileLoses sync after a while and have to reconnect in the app every so often. At that price it should be flawless..ShawUKVersion: 1.2

✓ Don’t botherApp is dead, but still taking money for it.Rich wwwwVersion: 1.7.1

✓ Somewhat disappointingI purchased this app from Pebble because I wanted the calendar feature which uses a "Diary" watchface. When I complained about that watchface to the general developer here that the watchface changes back to one of the Pebble default watchfaces overnight every night so I have to re-select Diary every day, all I got from the developer was go and complain to the watchface maker, not him. If you are underwriting your offerings as a way of selling your app, then it's your responsibility to get the endorsed sub-app corrected. When the watchface is working, I'm happy, but I'm unhappy with the general developer for his deflection of responsibility. I would recommend finding another calendar app..GKallanVersion: 1.5

✓ LoadingI've had no luck with this app whatsoever. I am constantly greeted with the 'loading' sign. Complete and utter waste of money. Avoid..G0_f1shVersion: 1.1

✓ TerribleNothing works! Not one feature, the least the developer could do is refund those who keep getting this loading issue!.Ran8787Version: 1.1

✓ The app is deadIt’s no longer working..DemenchukVersion: 1.7.1

✓ Have to keep reinstallingI think this app is great, except for the fact that it keeps turning off. It says it's connected, but when I press the button for an app I get the loading message that never goes away. I have to go to my phone and reinstall the app in my watch every couple of hours I don't use the app. This makes it pretty worthless for me, since I can just check everything on my phone since I had to drag it out. Also, the battery indicator in this apps keeps telling me it's disconnected, even when I have the watch charging. Just too buggy for me; I wish I could get my money back..GeekGirl1337Version: 1.1
