If my smartwatch cannot be repaired from fossil then can i get a full refund of the watch ?
I submitted my watch to fossil and they just cannot repair it due to unavailability of its parts so they provided me a credit note which was just of 3k.
What u guys think ?
I am looking for anyone who would want to be a friend on the Misfit social app. If anyone is interested, please dm me your username.
Hi folks,
I got two Misfit Vapor X's during their firesale last August and have just got around to testing them out.
Looking at a few posts on Reddit , many folks have noted much higher updates on thiers (https://www.reddit.com/r/WearOS/comments/jvudkd/got_a_wear_os_update_on_misfit_vapor_x_today/).
Any way to force the update through? Mine seem to be stuck on 2.10 and refuse to update any further ... Just showing the ol' 'System is up to date' message.
Thanks in advance!
Seems to just be a broken website now. What a dissappointing conclusion.
Whatever Misfit's big announcement is it's coming in less than 12 hours. I'm allowing myself to be foolishly optimistic and hoping for something with a 4100. The X is almost perfect except the old chipset and 512mb of ram.
A few weeks ago one of my friends gave me this Misfit Vapor that his gf didn't want anymore. I'm beginning to think there's a good risen why it was being given away.
Is the charger supposed to be really difficult to put on correctly? I have to do a lot of wiggling to get it just in the right position to actually charge.
The battery will sometimes drain itself very quickly when not used. I keep it in a locker at work, and sometimes even on airplane mode the battery will have gone from full to dead in less than 8 hours.
Sometimes, apps will just start on their own for no reason. I found out once that my stopwatch app had been running for over 4 hours.
I tried to link the Misfit app on my phone to the watch, but I didn't even see the vapor on the "select model" screen.
It does this weird thing where the touch screen will go unresponsive and will stay that way until I press the button. Then it will open some app (sometimes it's google fit, sometimes weather, sometimes assistant, sometimes something else) and it will input touches and swipe the screen around on its own. Sometimes, when I swipe down and open the settings, it will start to navigate through menus on its own and change settings without me touching the watch at all. One time, it went and changed my entire watch face on its own. It's very weird, and very frustrating.
All of these issues came after I performed a factory reset on the watch, and the phantom touch screen issue comes around more often after I finish a workout with the google fit app.
Even with the issues, it's still functional, until it decides it doesn't want to be. Is the watch defective? Are these misfits just generally shitty smartwatches, which is why I've never heard of them until I got this one? Is there something I'm doing wrong? Any help is appreciated
I check the site occasionally and just noticed a 62 day countdown. Any thoughts?
Hi. My band snapped in two and now I am need of a replacment. They don't seem to sell them anymore so I was wondering if anyone knew of any brands that would work? Would any 20mm band work?
Hello, apologies if this has been asked before. I bought a Misfit Vapor X a few months ago and honestly the experience hasn't been as good as my Flash/Shine 2 were for several years. The biggest issue I'm having is the Vapor X randomly stops counting my steps. It has done this several times now usually lasting for a day or two before it just starts working again.
The watch is up to date. I'm using it with an iPhone 11 with both wearos and Google fit apps installed. I've restarted the watch many times and changed between daily we extended mode. All I want is it to reliability track my steps/heart rate. I don't even care about notifications or any smart features. Had anyone else encountered this issue or found a solution? Thanks!
Does anyone else not get any notifications for Outlook (new mail or calendar events)? I get them all the time on my cheap Wyze Band but I have never gotten anything on my Vapor X.
Vapor watches sometimes have software issues that even a factory reset can't resolve, such as the Vapor X Google Assistant bugs (like many Wear OS watches) and auto brightness, which always makes the screen dim (max brightness level is probably 3 when it's on). Did any of you solve these problems or got it fixed by an update? Please comment more software issues you're having with any Vapor watch, so we can report to Misfit/Fossil and have them work on an update with a fix.
Question for new owners of the (outdated?) Misfit Vapor ONE: my Vapor seems to have died - won't charge. It was always a finicky charger - wouldn't charge unless it was powered off.
It was purchased during the big Misfit closeout sale Aug 4.
Anyone else having trouble with model from the same "batch"?
I bought a Vapor in the big sale because it was the only one listed in the app so I thought it would sync to the app. It apparently does not? Or am I missing something? I still really like it, but I really wanted to continue using the misfit app because I don’t use the same tracker every day and all my trackers are various misfits. (I like the sparkly ones, sue me.) I switched from Fitbit to Misfit because I like the app better. Now I find I can’t use it with the Vapor, even though the app would appear to support it? Like I said, I still like it but I’m a little disappointed.
Anyone who has upgraded from the original Vapor ONE have a OEM charger they would like to part with?
I received it on my watch this morning. It must be phased because none of my family or friends have it yet.
Like the title says, I live in Australia and even through eBay, screen protectors which would fit my watch is scarce to say the least. There are NO stores which stock the screen protectors in person either.
All from China, US, or Germany, and would take a month or two to arrive which I would like to avoid
I've never purchased anything from Amazon, but I have a feeling I might have to.
The screen protector diameter I need is 41mm. Even if there's another watch with the same size that would work too, but when searching, most of the listings would say something like "Samsung Galaxy 42mm Screen Protector" (which I assumed was a 42mm diameter screen protector, but was actually 31mm because the actual screen size was for that watch was 31mm...which is super confusing).
Can anyone help me?
Edit: its a Misfit Vapor 2
Path or Command - I will make you a good deal for it! I was about to buy one when they sold out :c it's one of the most disappointing missed opportunities in recent time... I would be forever grateful :)
I’m not sure whether it is going to work for everyone, but I believe I found a way to disable the Misfit background heart rate check. FYI, I’ve been trying to disable it due to its high power consumption (plus I prefer Google Fit).
So, all you need to do is to go to: settings (on watch) > Apps & notifications > App permissions > System apps > Misfit > Sensors (make sure it is disabled).
I hope it helps you. Let me know if it works for you as well :)
Finally got my new Vapor charged up and running (after acquiring aftermarket charger).
After 2 system updates, it is still on WearOS 1.2 - how do I get to OS 2.0+?
Also, I noticed that it will only charge if it is powered off - that can't be normal?
I'm not expecting much for $15, but WTF?
