Jun 7, 2014 9:07 AM in response to JamesSwainby Lyssa,★HelpfulSome smartwatches (like the Pebble) have a dedicated app that allows the watch and iOS to interact with one another.
If the watch you purchased doesn't have such an app, you will probably not be able to use all the featuers of the watch.
I'm not sure what BT Notifier does so can't really say if there's an iOS equivalent.

Jun 25, 2014 4:16 PM in response to JamesSwainby Mazzenote,hi
So I did some reasearch and bt notifier doesnt exist for ios, HOWEVER I did search uwatch in the app store and what I found was that there's an app called Trakdot which is suppose to connect to your U8 smartwatch. I havent purchased my watch yet, because I had to make sure there was an app for ios. Though you can try the app and sync it with your watch and see how it works out for you.
Hope I helped!

Aug 8, 2014 9:38 AM in response to karel-willemby jog1041,There is a Trackdot Uwatch App in the App Store, but the problem is...It doesn't work. I downloaded the App from the App store and tried it, but it doesn't even recognize my Uwatch. I researched some videos online and found out that you don't need the Trackdot App to sync your Uwatch to your I-phone. 1st make sure the blue tooth feature on your Uwatch is on, then go into settings on your I-phone and turn on your blue tooth. You should see " BT Watch " listed, then click pair your device. If you're one of the lucky guys with the lucky watch..Then your watch should sync...If you're like me..Then it won't sync; now you'll have to find another option.....Hope this helps...

Aug 21, 2014 12:51 PM in response to JamesSwainby Bagheera18,Try googling for "BTNotificationEnabler: Send ALL Push Notifications To Your Smartwatch!"
My U8 is on it's way so I can't confirm if it works yet, but I think it just might be the solution.

Aug 21, 2014 1:14 PM in response to Bagheera18by Bagheera18,This is also very interesting. It works for the Pebble, so maybe also for the U8?

Aug 21, 2014 5:58 PM in response to Lumberitby jog1041,Curious...Lumberit...Which model Iphone do you have and what IOS are you using?... U8 claims that their watch will work for Iphones 4 and newer. But according to my research; only customers who have later model iphones ( Iphone 5 and newer ) were able to sync their phones to the watch. I have an Iphone 4 runing on IOS 7 and I wasn't able to sync my devices. From what I can tell; if you have an Iphone, you have about a 50/50 shot of getting your device to sync with the watch. If you have an Iphone 4 or 4S your chances are slim to none in getting the devices to sync regardless of whether you're operating on the most current IOS or not. If you have an Iphone 5 or newer, it appears that your chances are better in getting the devices to sync....So anyone out there who has gotten their Iphone to sync with the U8 Smart Watch; I'd like to hear from you...Can you tell me which Iphone you were using and what IOS you were running...Thanx.

Sep 16, 2014 2:36 PM in response to JamesSwainby BreannaJared7412,There is an app they just released (sep 13, 2014) on itunes called Uwatch. Hopefully that helps!

Sep 17, 2014 12:07 AM in response to JamesSwainby Bagheera18,Unfortunately that Uwatch app has nothing to do with the U8. I have a JB iPhone too but haven't been able to fully make it work with the U8 because there simply doesn't exist an iPhone version of BTnotifier (yet). No idea if it will ever be made.
My solution was to sell the U8 and order a Weloop Tommy, which (imho) looks better and does have a dedicated iPhone app.
