Does this stay linked to iphone by bluetooth when they are within range or does it disconnect after recording weight. Worried about battery drain.

No battery drain. App is great for charting weight. Disconnects after you save the reading. If more than 1 person is using the same app on same phone you will need to close app between weighing in order to record and save second person's data.

The scale shuts off a short period of time after you step off of it. I believe it also quits connecting to your device at the same time.

I have not noticed a battery drainage problem on either the phone or the scale

Negative. It works via synching, via your ComPilot & The ComPilot can only synch with one device. Not to drag out the reply. But I will be watching TV, listineing to the show via my ComPilot, and if I put my iPhone in the charger, the iPhone Bluetooth will override the TV bluetooth connection. So I have to turn off the iPhone, to continue the charging, in order to listen to my TV show. With this example, I hope I provided a better undestanding of my answer to your great question. Terry

The remote control feature through my iPhone works well with no problems. Distance? I've only used it up to about 25 feet away on a small table tripod.

I have had it for over a month and repeatedly tried to sync it [Bluetooth] with my cell to no avail. I cant answer your question, but maybe you can tell me how you initially accomplished a link. etter.josh@gmail.com-Thanks

I have not used it. However it connects to a BARE iPad with rubber corner guards. I plan to use it on an iPad outside. I got it so that the pad cannot be ripped from my hands when taking pictures in crowded areas.

I've had no problem with the Bluetooth staying connected. Only problem I've had is the speaker volume is very low when connected with another helmet.

Link connects wirelessly by blue tooth to your iPhone or android device to sync data, and only needs to be plugged in for charging every few days. Core needs to be plugged into a computer via USB to upload data and to charge. My experience with the core is that the tabs that lock it into the arm strap wear down within a few months with daily removal to sync data via the USB cable. Mine does not stay in the strap very firmly anymore. My advice, pay a little more and do the Link version. It is much more handy to get a quick reading rather than having to remove it and plug it into you PC every time.

It keeps the settings when unplugged - at least it does for me. This includes keeping secure wireless info.I too occasionally have the problem of a dropped connection. I can restart my iPad (if that is the device broadcasting via AirPlay) and all is well. Other times, I must restart the Fidelio. [All this could be a router problem...] I use other AirPlay devices for audio and video and do not have this problem. My favorite is a Panasonic; works great and streams Internet radio.

you do not lose the recording, but of course it doesn't record when the batteries quit. That is a problem if you are sitting at a table with the microphone pointed to the speaker, as you do not see the red light go out if you are at the wrong angle to the front

It varies, guess it depends how strong your wi-fi signal is from your phone, I have been in the house and car parked in driveway watching live video. At other times you could be in the vehicle driving with the phone 2 feet away and it drops out. I bought one and rear camera connector is cheezy be real careful when you plug it in. I emailed company several times and heard nothing back

While it does when bluetooth is left on (it takes about 30 seconds for this to work) I do not leave my bluetooth on when away from my car. It wastes the battery. I recommend going into bluetooth settings during the walk to the car to connect as soon as your phone finds the MPOW.

I have changed my battery many times without any data loss. I have two batteries which I sometime have to change in the middle of a recording and only looses the time from satellite disconnect to reconnect.

Played a few times with the bluetooth connected to my iPhone. Haven't had any issues with it disconnecting during the round. Actually noticed last time I played, that it was a bit annoying. ALL notifications that appear on your iPhone (i.e. emails, texts, application notifications, etc.) appear on the watch and makes it tedious to get back to the distance screen or clear all notifications during a hole, but that may just be me. Hopefully that helps. Definitely love the watch, I wear it beyond just playing, just as an everyday watch. Considering its cost, might as well get as much use out of it.

Its built in and syncs with a smartphone ... on mine the wifi disconnects randomly .. not sure if its the camera or my phone causing the issue

I only use the bluetooth connection and I would say my battery has never ran out while I have used it. My speaker is amazing. If I was guessing I would say something is wrong with yours.

Interesting you should ask because I have this question as well and thought I found a solution yesterday (fingers crossed). Answer to your question is yes based on my experience and here are my findings, the speaker goes powers itself off after a period of inactivity, however, I find that if you pair it with your bluetooth device and then add the speaker to the wifi network it will remain on, at least that's how I did it and still on after overnight.

For me it remembers my Iphone most of the time. Sometimes I have to repair, but it works as good if not better than most Bluetooth systems in this regard.
