" ... Had to install and re install app a couple times to get it to sync. ... "
" ... Not a huge deal but there are no instructions on how to reset the watch, had to google it. ... "
" ... However, I was only able to update it via the mioGo app my iPhone (I usually use an android phone and was told at the time was having issues updating using an android). ... One of the only things I wish would improve is the apps/integration with the data it gathers using the MioGo app with Google fit. ... "
" ... Sometime mobile app stuck during sync (I'm using iOS version). ... 4 star, remove 1 star just because of the app issue. ... "

" ... Pros: price, customizable, comfortable, accurate, simple. ... I set it up for just HR and lap times for weight lifting. ... "
" ... Occasionally stops taking accurate readouts if your wrist gets sweaty, but way more convenient than a chestband. ... "
" ... They are similar but the Alpha 2 has a softer more comfortable wristband and a backlight . ... I sweat like crazy and my arms move vigorously but I have no problems. ... "
" ... Much more comfortable & easier to use than a chest strap. ... "
" ... I find it quite comfortable to wear but I'm very large framed, smaller framed people may find the size a bit awkward it you want something to wear when you're not working out. ... "
