It isn't a terrible watch and it is a great activity tracker, but it's smart functions need lots of improvement. It seems to mostly be a software issue. You need to use third party apps to do basic things like send texts or make phone calls. The apps do not work well and often, after basic software updates, do not work at all. I kinda wish I bought the Fitbit Blaze instead. This watch is not doing what I need it to do.
