No one have this sport bracelet too?

I do.. Now testing it. The vidonn.apk which I downloaded, does not install on my android phone (with android 4.2).. so.... pretty stupid.

Windows app seems to work with some hickups..

After creating an account on a windows machine it works.. sort off. It has potential... but software is crap at this point. When you want to look at data of your walk or whatever, you will be send to the website in Chinese... you get some basic stuff like calories burned and walked and the such.
But I wanted it to easily sync by android smartphone app... but with a non working app it can't. ... so it is still a work in progress.

I believe it needs 4.3 and BT4.0 with BLE.

The question remains why it is not "backward" compatible. It easy to dismiss a phone this way that it would not be compatible for a chinese brand..

That's Android for you :) Because of protocol details, a lot of the smartwatch and smartdevices require 4.3 (where android introduced a better notification support and other changes) and also low power 4.0 BLE. And that requirement gets hardcoded without a backward compatibility support :(

Well bringing this thread back to life. I did buy this from DX. App works on my Zenphone. but no calorie trackers will link to it.

multi day charge step count seems accurate.
