I was reading that you have to log into their website when you use the device. Why? Do you have to have an Internet connection to get results?

Results are displayed on the Android Phone. It will display the results even when the phone is in Airplane Mode(i.e. no internet)

I returned my Swingbyte as the method they use to secure it to the golf shaft doesn't keep it for slipping and twisting basically making the results invalid.

You dont need to login. If you do though, you can see your swings online. Not essential. You do need a SMART phone with internet connection.

You don't have to log on to see your data for each swing, but the website offers even more analysis than the app, though the app's data is vast. Swingbyte says the website is designed to be accessed by your home computer.

Yes, I have internet access. I was not aware that I was required to use a website to use my device? Please advise.Thank you, Darrell

There's no display on the device. You have to have a smartphone to read the results.

Not at all.... I used it for the whole month and watched what I ate and no results happened. I think you would have to bye it from the website instead, but I did not try that one it is expensive. This to me is a knock off brand.

Yes you can! It has an app specifically for it and I think you can run it through the web browser too but I normally just use the app.

As I recall, the last hotel we stayed at provided the type of connection that the first web page you went to (no matter what URL you tried to browse to) required you to enter your room # and last name. I connected the this hub to the hotel WiFi, then my tablet to the hub, got that prompt and entered my room # and last name, and was then able to surf like normal. The only difference (between connecting tablet to hotel WiFi deirectly) was that I could also interact with this hub via the browser. If my memory is correct, I don't believe our other devices where then asked for the login information.

hi man, its supposed to allow you to call, and surf the internet, BUT the IOS app is really really bad, GMATE IS ALMOST USELESS, cause the software updates took a really long, more than a year, without a serious update, i dont recommend this product, untill new updates, that will take long

I believe a strong cell signal is somewhat important. I have just recently installed the Android app for tracking and have tested it while I walk around my neighborhood. Usually it works and shows the position. In a couple of spots it doesn't. This leads me to believe the cell signal is not getting through. My opinion of this device has gone up since I started using the android app recently. It works better than the online web page tracking.

Im pretty sure they have a pc app as well as the iphone app. If you go to their site they are great at getting back to you. I love mine...in fact I washed my first one..dont do that! And got another for myself and my sister. Ive had it since February. The pedometer itself works on its own but does not store the info you need to sync it with your app to see daily info. Again I am almost positive they have a pc app now. If not they have an all in one device you wear that stores everything but it is much bigger...I havent used that one though .

Mine saw my own home wireless modem and I had to use my password info to connect, but it did connect .I am not very knowledgeable about tablets, but I did manage to even load a Netflix app and it works fine. You many need to return or exchange your item, or find the closest tech savvy person and let them have a shot at it. Good luck!

You might need a web connection to activate the software if you choose to do so over the Internet. If I recall correctly you can do this over the phone as well. Aside from having to do an online activation, this product is used offline. No web connection required

You cable sync to the website as usual, when you start the app, it grabs the data off the website. So you can review past performance, but not current. And only overview same as Console, but not the details. And no, there is no Bluetooth transmission from the non-BW unit to tap into. Nor anyway to enable it. Unless the chipset/radio is in there to do it, and someone found a program hack for enabling it. And of course past performance is no indicator of future performance - oh wait, wrong topic.

I use android, but not that, that matters... I tried to use the app once and it was confusing getting it all set us on the software side... as well as the monitor has to be connected to a computer that stays on line at all times for it to work. Long story short, the aggravation was not worth using the app.

I am trying it out there. No definitive results yet. I think it takes time and persistent usage. I try to be cautious around my eyes.

Hi Patricia. The unit itself is a very nice device. Where I had problems, was with the software. It worked once, maybe twice, but that was it. A search of the Internet revealed that many others had problems with the software too. What I ended up having to do, was to find a program on the Internet, that I could manually add the results into. When you say that it stopped working, do you mean the unit itself stopped working, or the communications with the software stopped working? I've only had mine a couple of months, and I don't use it that often, so I have no idea if mine will be working a year from now, or if it will stop working as yours did. Sorry I can't be of more help.

It would give you a reading, but not store your results. You could find a much cheaper version that would just take a reading. The key is the storing and syncing of the data across your wireless network to the cloud and to a health management app, such as Healthvault.

The finger print scanner I got, verifi P2000, allows me to log into my computer. It comes with software from another vendor that will automatically log you into other sites, once the software is authenticated for a session. When I read the information about it, it appeared to me that the software used to log into websites only authenticates once, and then will log you into any site you visit that you have set up, without another scan of your finger print. I didn't consider this very secure, so I didn't use that software - just the scanner to log into my PC. But if you're okay with that level of security, then it should work for you. One note however. The free version that came with the scanner has a severely limited number of logins that it will store. You have to purchase the upgraded package to do unlimited. I didn't think the price was unreasonable. If you want to research in advance, I believe the software is called Roboform.

Why don't you spend 3 minutes on the manufacturer's website instead of getting someone to do the research for you? They have a list of apps that work with this. Do it yourself.
