      I agree. Everything everywhere wants subscriptions. Thus is for a health need should charge a fee after buying the product. When people have alarms given to press in case of emergency they don't pay a monthly fee for this service. So why is this different

    Everyone in the comments is so negative 🤣 Most of em haven't even tried the watch, it has been on my wrist for 2 years. Saved my life countless times, family members were alerted and found me choking on my vomit. It works seamlessly, if you can't get it set up then you likely need to learn how to set up bluetooth and/or how to use your phone. If I go out of range then it will disconnect and the range isn't very far depending on your Bluetooth version. Always stays connected when I need it to be. Also gives you information about your sleep and exercise. You guy's probably pay for like 5 streaming services you don't use and 5 patreons, but to save your life isn't worth it 🤣.

    can you think of a fashion conscious teenager that would wear anything that wasnt trendy. i have three children, two of which have seizures. my eldest whom is now 31 has been on meds for 17 years and has full blown fits and no medication to date has helped. My youngest has absence seizures that are light triggered. she also has them in her sleep....a lot!
    I welcome any product, trendy or not, that will alert me of my childs health issues.

    Why is there a monthly subscription? I don't see that is necessary if it blurtooths to your phone then uses your phone network to text for help? It seem to me you want you cake and eat it too.
    From videos I've seen it says it also needs to be connected to the internet 24/7 to send Geo Location data that is also not needed as that can be sent in the txt.

    Monthly fees? lol, these are your good days that u can take advantage of unhealthy people but xiaomi or samsung would already include seisure detections to their smartwatches without extra fee in a year or two. And probably it only detects increased hearth rate nothing else. Maybe also shake movements. Learning ai doesn't sound any realistic.

    Firstly this product is very expensive to begin with. Why would you need to pay a subscription fee in top of this. If this was made cheaper then and not a subscription too. This could reach out to many more people and help them..maybe be given on NHS too. Monthly subscription fee too? Why

    My son has Seizures and this is what I think of this product...
    There are 2 issues with this item...
    1. The price point is a bit high, considering you can purchase Full Featured Smartwatches for similar price point.
    So, even if a consumer gets over the price point issue, there is a second issue...
    2. You are required to have subscription after purchasing this overpriced item...Seriously? Google, Apple, Samsung no other company has Subscription service for their watches...This is a bluetooth connected watch, ALL communication data can be feed through the Smartphones...Subscription service is total rip-off.
    I don't think this company realizes Volume = Sales and Revenue
    Too High of Price Point = Failed Product

      Subsidized: right. People with seizures usually have trouble with earning a decent income. If they have descended to dependence upon a fixed income from the government, $250 would be a huge and prohibitive expense.

    • @lanceroark6386
      @lanceroark6386 Před 6 lety +3

      Charles Hannon I’m glad we have it. We’ve had a few false alarms while driving, so we know it’s working. She wears it all day, and doesn’t complain. We like to charge it in the afternoon since we’re all near each other and don’t immediately need it, and so that it’s fully charged all night long.
      One thing I don’t like, but understand there’s nothing I can do to change, is that it requires a Bluetooth connection to my phone. So when I’m gone, it’s basically useless; but again, we want it more for sleeping, so we accept it.

    • @rising484
      @rising484 Před 6 lety

      Boanerges The AntiCatholic Thank you for your quick response. I have been looking at the embrace watch but I am also looking at SmartWatch Inspyre. They seem to have a similar app but you can use other smart watches. How long did it take for you to get after you ordered it? How is the battery life in it? Will it last all day long? I also do not like that you need a phone connected to get an alert. This is why I am trying to figure out if I get a Samsung gear fit 3 with it's own line or an Apple watch with it's own line with SmartWatch Inspyre software will I need the phone to be connected to send an alert since the watches have it's out telephone number. I would assume I still do since it seems the app sends the alert. So unless you can install the app on the watch I think you will always need a phone connected to it.

    • @lanceroark6386
      @lanceroark6386 Před 6 lety

      Charles Hannon yeah, it sounds like all options require a phone. Yes. The battery lasts all day. It lasts more than 24 hours, so you’re not stuck with one set recharge time. Theres a feature in the app that tells you what the battery level is, so you shouldn’t be caught off guard by a low battery.
