This watch is more like an Alpha since basic functions are a mess.

Did you actually watch the video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oca1RIeyNOc) and the site ads (http://www.weloop.cn/en/)? We're supposed to get a lot more than "just a notifier".

1. Notifications are iffy and only very few are saved.

2. Remote control for camera and music playback. So far music playback is NOT working for most people. Video recording is buggy.

3. Hundreds of Watch faces... except most of them are lazy and terrible and most of the ones in the pre-release videos are absent here.

4. Watch does not have working 12 hour output, only shows 24 hour watchfaces only.

5. The advertised health-app does not work or look anything like it does in their mockups. It's also very inaccurate to the point of uselessness.

6. Says it supports "Android 4.4 and above"... in actuality there's no Lolipop support

Most of the advertised watch-faces aren't even in. Most features don't work and the sync is broken for half the things like music playback and internal fitness sync. There is still piles of bugs.

At this point, considering the Pebble is often $79 (or $8-$18 more) its better to just get that.
[General Accessories] skiiermike:
Don't forget to add the terrible Dev support. By that I mean they fail to even respond to posts on there official FB page and they obviously don't look at this thread.
[General Accessories] Pehehetri:
Hopefully they will release sn SDK soon and problems will be fixed... hopefully.
[General Accessories] iskalatur:
When will they release a non beta Firmware? The watch has potential if a real developer begin working.
[General Accessories] makguru:
Any news about the planned updates the firmware for iOS?
[General Accessories] iskalatur:
There're lying. I think, we'll get it in 2016 maybe

[General Accessories] lycheebill:
well to be honest, after having tommy for 3 month, my feelings are mixed. On one hand I'm extreme happy with the battery life and the practicality, on the other hand, i'm sicken tired of waiting for software support. Its been over 1 month now since dev team said they're working on a solution for android L and yet, still no notifications, no updates. Instead of working on one product with already limited resources, they're working on three. Instead of producing one perfectly functional firmware, they're doing three half-assed products.

I dont know what should I think about tommy now. I`m proud that i'm chinese and some Chinese companies such as weloop is starting to try innovating to suit consumer demands, but I'm also disappointed with their half-assed attitude. I'm not software dev, but Im sure with all the source codes available, it shouldnt take more than a month produce a fix, or come out clean officially.

Unfortunately I'm taking tommy off my wrist and putting my Seiko back on, as right now there's not difference in practicality. Until the firmware's issues are fixed, it will stay inside my drawer, and I'm not getting my hands anywhere near the 2gen tommy neither.

For all of you guys out there with android 4.4 or 4.2, enjoy the best of tommy while you can. Peace!

With this smartwatch can i read long notifications?
[General Accessories] Pehehetri:
no, i can't scroll down when a notification arrives so no.
[General Accessories] kennytan84:
honestly i getting tired as well of this waiting game.. we are just their guinea pigs to test their market...

now they know they are popular they can dump us and coming out with a new device.. boo tommy
[General Accessories] iskalatur:
I agree. We are test user for them, I think.
[General Accessories] nekisia:
I don't understand why you are growling. Before the purchase you know that firmware, watch and app are in beta mode. So, yes we are the testers. I bought the device fully conscientious and I m pretty happy till today. I m facing some bugs here and there but I have patience.
[General Accessories] skiiermike:
I bought two of these watches over 2 months ago. Since then there have been no noticeable updates. There have been no announcements from weloop indicating the updates being worked on and there is no proper reporting system for bugs or requests. I have sent three messages to them on their official Facebook page over a month ago with no response.

That might help people understand why so many are upset.
[General Accessories] nekisia:
I m familiar with startup companies and also informed of their highly risky products.
[General Accessories] standef:
Stop Crying....

The watch is what it is.. It's functional for what it is. If you expect mega features buy a watch that will deliver what you expect and be prepared to pay a hefty price.

I too would like to see more from this watch but don't expect a lot... Get over it..
[General Accessories] ThemeSong:
Yes, but they are really SLOW, Android 5.0 is out from 1 month officially (and from 6 months in developer preview), and still no support. I can wait for the "new things", but i'm very disappointed, i can't use my smartwatch.
[General Accessories] skiiermike:
A hefty price? I could of bought a Pebble for $20 more. I chose to go with weloop do to all the hype on the forum.

My tommy arrived today and its awesome!! A little bug on music control in ios but still awesome!
[General Accessories] iskalatur:
I would be happy, if they solve the language bug. It can't be, that I must always change the language, if the watch connect to my smartphone. The language of my smartphone is German.
[General Accessories] nekisia:
Try to change your phone's language to English and leave for a few days to see if the bug still exists. I ve never faced that bug with any of watch's firmware. My phone language is English.
[General Accessories] iskalatur:
I try, belive me, I try. If you choose English or Chinese on your smartphone, there is no problem, if you disconnect and connect it with the watch.

But if you choose a another language as English or Chinese, after disconnect and connect, the watch automatically change to Chinese language.
[General Accessories] nekisia:
Great, then you have found what causes this bug. Did you post that in official English forum?
[General Accessories] simple1i:
May I remind you all of the rules & objectives of XDA. It's a forum. Anyone has the right to share their ideas and thoughts positive and negative.

If someone wants to post that their WeLoop is rubbish then they can do so without any fear or repercussions... and vice versa. You have no right to slate anyone for posting a negative review in the same way that one can not slate anyone for thinking that their WeLoop is the best watch in the world.

Tolerance, open mindedness, sharing = a happy XDA global community.

Got hang on updating

Hi there, while attempting updating to 3.17 and setting to OTA, the screen of the watch now got stuck on updating mode with backlights on. Also can't update, anyone faces this and an solutions? thanks :(

I
[General Accessories] skiiermike:
It happens a lot. Leave your phone in the updating mode and put your watch in manual ota. Off the top of my head I think you need to hold the three side buttons until the watch resets but the exact method is somewhere near the beginning of the thread.

I do remember I had to hold the buttons for what seemed like forever.

Thanks for the reply but still unable to solve.......... sigh:crying:

It seems that Weloop is going to release a new app version (beta for the end of january) :

http://bbs.weloop.cn/thread-6835-1-1.html

Let's hope they will add Lollipop notification support and more watchfaces!

BTW it seems similar to the GoClever Chronos Eco App.
[General Accessories] iskalatur:
I will be happy, if they solve the language problem. How many times they will need? It can't be a big problem.
[General Accessories] Liborf:
I hope they do something with the support of MediaTek chipset .. I have them as an ordinary watch:(
[General Accessories] AIPHEE:
Me too, only setting alarms and step/sleep sync works. No watchfaces or notifications.
[General Accessories] infomedia0:
A new update came for the client application on the play store.

Said bug fixes and new watch faces.

Although it's yet not working on lollipop ( nexus 5) i didn't find new watch faces either.

Looks okay till now, hoping to find some added functionality for this watch.
[General Accessories] Liborf:
With the last update I had phone (Doogee DG550) watches found, but the connection is still unstable and must be renewed, notifications and some other functions do not work.
[General Accessories] herel88:
A lot of new watchfaces added, most ugly, but few are pretty! watchfaces for every taste!
[General Accessories] iskalatur:
Wonderful watchfaces, but how long it will need to solve the language change problem?
[General Accessories] herel88:
Try to find v1.26.3562b is the old beta, I use this and I don't have language changes.
[General Accessories] iskalatur:
I know that but I want to use the newest version of the app. It is definitely a temporary solution but I'm asking my self, is it really a big problem to solve the language problem in the app?

I can't believe that.
[General Accessories] ae01:
Just got my pebble watch few day ago, and I can confirm that they are non comparable.

The pebble just way too good in any aspect, except the screen maybe.

The pebble cost 79$,I think that if you are just about buying a smart watch, you should go for the pebble, you get a lot more for this extra 10$ or so.
[General Accessories] Pehehetri:
yeah but what about the battery life?
[General Accessories] ae01:
I can live with one week battery life,I think I prefer a full functioning watch, that I have to charge each week, then a non mature, low level support watch with 3 weeks stand by.
[General Accessories] Rene_ajax:
79 dollars??!!! where you get that from???

Here in the netherlands every shop sells it for €129... thats about 150 usd dude....
[General Accessories] ae01:
Just order it from the official website, with worldwide free shipping.

[General Accessories] iskalatur:
I love my Weloop. Yes, there were many things to do, how like fix the language change bug and the sync problem with android 5.0, but I love it, because I forget to charge the watch.

I hope, the developers bring a non beta Firmware as soon as possible, where all the bugs fixed.
[General Accessories] WSDC:
Guys please be careful as the watch doesn't come with any warranty nor support from the manufacturer. My watch is now a 'brick' and no matter what I try it still cannot come out of the OTA mode sigh.........

Firmware 3.18 is released

As i understood this update fixes.

- vibration alert, night time i suspect.

- chineese / english switching back and forth.

- a new toggle under settings is now available "O clock on/off" (every whole hour the watch will vibrate. 12'O'clock etc.)

(im on ios so cant tell if this fixes anything for the android users, sorry)

iOS version 2.078; Android version 1.27.3645b

Cyrilic support ?

Hello,

This is a great product and I really want to have it, but I doubt whether the clock supports notifications with Cyrillic characters? I'm from Bulgaria and if not support Cyrillic, the clock will not be an useful for me.

Can I test this with any of you before I buy? I mean to send someone an email on cyrillic and tell me if it works or not?

Thank you in advance.
[General Accessories] taleboblen:
PM me some Cyrillic characters and i will test for you

Thank you :)

[General Accessories] antonioj:
Actually, it seems they are going to integrate clever fitness stuff than even the Pebble does not have: they´ll use the watch sensors together with phone sensors, namely gps, to auto track all you do and detect if it is walking, running, biking, etc (alot like iOS/android app Moves did when it was being developed)
[General Accessories] skiiermike:
I'm no Dev so I'm not sure if this is of any help. While updating the watch I wanted to ensure my screen stayed on so I was tapping the screen.

If you tap the center of the percentage 6 times a pop up appears for you to select your update file. If you select browse it gives you access to a bunch of folders that appear to be inside the app or maybe the watch itself. I tried it several times and 6 is the magic number to make the option appear or disappear. It doesn't work if the watch isn't upgrading it's firmware.

Hope it can be of some use.

Maybe it be better if vibration would have your own specific vibration, just like "1 beep" in traditional watches.. I chek my watch every single whole hour, thinking if i had received some notification. Because its all the same alert. :laugh: ,sorry my english =D

hope this helps
[General Accessories] in silico:
In the Android app with the watch disconnected and in OTA mode:

Tap the image of the watch on the initial screen (showing disconnected underneath) six times until you get asked if you want to switch to OTA mode. Confirm, select your watch in the popup and proceed with update as usual.

This way I was able to quit OTA mode on my Weloop (and switch to Chronos FW).
