Hi...do you know the size of the wristband? I ordered the rose gold mesh magnetic band but it's a bit faded. What MM size??...I ABSOLUTELY love this watch!!
Hi. The strap size is 22mm. Btw. My Mrs also loves this watch despite it’s just an entry-level (basic) watch. She had latest gen6 from fossil and she still prefers uwatch 2s…because it’s simple and the battery holds ages..
Hi. Please check: - in the watch - in the notification settings, at the bottom should be feature “other”, tap this one, make sure it’s turned ON, - in your phone settings-> notifications -> Paiactive - allow notifications has to be turned on. If these two won’t work, I would suggest factory reset of the watch - then set it up from scratch as a new device. During setup make sure to confirm pairing requests and allow all notifications. Please let me know if any struggle, we’ll figure it out.
My wife has the 2S and had not used it in a while. I charged the watch and updated the software so that it now showed the correct date and time. I asked her to walk around the room to see that the steps were tracking correctly and they were. We do a mile and a half each morning on our treadmill and after my walk my Fitbit showed 3600 steps and her UMIDIGI 2S showed 212 steps. Does this watch count steps by swinging arms? When on the treadmill she holds onto to handles so her arms are stationary. I realized that there was a training feature for treadmill. We tried that as well and as long as the arms were not swinging, there was NO counting!
Hi. I apologise for the delay. Here’s what I found out: - the accuracy isn’t the strongest point of the watch, as for 100 steps it shows around 86-90. - Swinging arms while walking doesn’t affect the step count. - step count precision can be adjusted by tampering with the “steplength” in the app (me -> profile -> step length), In my case, when my Mrs did 100 steps, the counter shows 86, I have changed the existing value (66cm) to 58cm and the accuracy was improved to acceptable level (for every 100steps the counter shows 97-102 steps). I know, this isn’t ideal solution, but at least it seem to be working ok. In your case the difference in steps is huge, 3600 actual steps and only 212 been counted- please try to do factory reset and set the watch as new (it may be software related issue). Please let me know how did it all go. Adam
Hi, I’ll check this out - I’m sure there’s setting to turn on this feature (not sure if it’s within the app or in the watch itself), I’ll check it out once I’ll be back home and will come back to you, Adam
Hi Daisy, are you able to power it on? - or it ran out of power and you can’t charge it? I’m asking, because if you still can turn it on for a brief moment, you may be able to reset it to the factory state, then set it up as a new watch. BUT, If it’s totally drained, and its not charging at all, it may also indicate that the cable may be faulty, it happened to one of my watches. One more thing to try: swap the power source (e.g try an iphone charger, or anything with the USB port) other than the usual device you use for charging the watch. All this just to determine whether your watch is actually faulty or not. Obviously, if nothing would work then the best thing would be contacting the seller and ask for a replacement or refund, if possible. Let me know how did it go, Adam
Hi. Make sure, you got “allow notifications” feature turned on Settings->notifications->paiactive->allow notifications In the app, turn on notifications for all the apps you use in your iPhone. Let me know how did it go. If any struggle, no worries, we’ll figure it out.
Hi. I would try to do a full reset of the watch: - from the main screen go to other -> reset -> confirm. Once done, you'll have to set it up as a new device via the app. If this won't help, I would suggest to contact the seller and ask for a replacement/refund, as the watch may be faulty. My Mrs has this watch since February this year and it never turned off once (unless the battery was drained, obviously). Hope this helps, please let us know how did it go, best, Adam
I panned it successfully However now I have an akon on the screen of the watch that says app with a circle around it and an arrow above it. The app is installed on my phone and they are paired, but I don't know how to get rid of this. Could you help with this?
Hi there. Thanks for the video. I bought UMIDIGE Uwatch 2S last year. Suddenly the screen is not on and its dark. Do you have any idea what should I do please?
Hi, my apologies for the late reply. There's no calibration of the watch, I'm afraid. However, if you'd tamper with the data in the personal profile, this will affect the step count algorithm, e.g if you'd increase your height, the watch will increase your stride length, effectively it will then count less steps. And the other way around - if you'd drop your height, the stride length will be recalculated, which will give you more steps. It's the only way to 'calibrate' - or actually cheat the step count, I'm afraid. I'm sorry, if this isn't exactly the answer you have expected. However, let me know, once you'll decide to experiment with it.
Hi. Do you mean, the screen did freeze on watch face-? Anyway, did you try to: - press and long hold the side upper button? It should eventually power off the watch. - did you try to re-sync it with the Paiactive app? (Change any setting and then sync) - other thing to try - in the app go to “me” -> “my device” - press on it and select “unbind”. Then close the app - then open it again and try to “add device”, same way as you did once you sync it for the 1st time. Try it and let me know what was the outcome - did it work or not. 👍🏻
hi. It may be too big, but it obviously depends on your child's wrist circumference. My Mrs has 15.5cm / 6" wrist circumf., and it fits and looks good. If you'd like to check something budgety in similar price range and with similar features, take look at - Liebig smartwatch: amzn.to/2T4kltp - or Milostar smartwatch: amzn.to/2T76hzj these watches having smaller size of the body. Hope it helps.
Hi. That’s strange, I would suggest restarting the watch, as this worked for me with the other watches. Another suggestion, alternatively - try to leave your Bluetooth connection ON overnight. I’ve been testing the LW11 for over a week and it counted sleep (more or less accurately) for every single night. Please let us know if this worked out for you, I’m sure it’d help other users who may have experience similar issues and would look for potential solutions here, Adam
Thank you Sueanne 💜 Since my wifey got me my first “budget” smart watch, I actually love it. That’s why had the idea of creating “the miniseries of watch reviews”:))
Hi. The display has a pretty thick bezels around the screen (which consist around 30% of the whole screen, and the actual display area is 1.3” in diameter (won’t show anything outside these 1.3” in the bezel area), If you swipe the screen to the left, you’ll see the activity circles which are bordering with the bezels, and that’s how big the total display area is.
Hi. That’s strange - I guess you’ve tried already to plug it to the charger to see if it turns on? I guess, the factory reset would help, but obviously it has to be turned on to do it:-/ Is it covered by warranty? This seems to be the only option
My Mrs has a pink version of this one and she likes it’s her fav watch. One thing which could be added - water drinking reminder. That would make a perfect budget watch:)
I did it but still not work,, i don't know how can't be like that,, just shutdown after that i press the home bottom will not on. I charge also nothing respond, i press again still not work,, I'm confuse
I wish I’d be able to help, but I haven’t got any experience with sony smartphones I’m afraid, Btw. looks like you already found an alternative solution using Samsung..
hi, apologise for my late reply. If you would share the exercise data with apple health, you'll find it there (monthly steps, weekly and annual step count too). Not sure how it would work with Strava app). Hope it helps.

How do you change the display timeout on Umidigi Uwatch 2S?
hi, I'm afraid the display timeout is not adjustable in uwatch 2s..
Full charge but display not showing. Press and hold nothing happens. Worked before until I charged it again.
Just bought the 3s I hope it's as good as the one he reviewed.
Great review by the way.

Carl or anyone please how does one sync with the phone and set time?.
I finally got the watch but can you set the watch to be full screen
Because every time I turn I on only the middle of the screen shows and not the whole screen so I want to know if you can set it to full screen
Hi. The display has a pretty thick bezels around the screen (which consist around 30% of the whole screen, and the actual display area is 1.3” in diameter (won’t show anything outside these 1.3” in the bezel area),
If you swipe the screen to the left, you’ll see the activity circles which are bordering with the bezels, and that’s how big the total display area is.
So you can't change it to full screen
I really dont like how it is not the whole screens

Hi. That’s strange - I guess you’ve tried already to plug it to the charger to see if it turns on?
