Background

Smart connect, the app used to control the device using Bluetooth[1], has been discontinued since August 2025[2] as the cloud service (only used for login), is taken offline, making it impossible for new users to set the time on the clock. In the meantime, Amazon allows third party sellers to sell the product since 2021.[3]

[Company]'s response

Product box indicates "We reserve the right to terminate digital applications after December 31, 2017." (or otherdates on other products)

Some EU consumers on Reddit report being offered a partial refund after citing EU laws.

If applicable, add the proposed solution to the issues by the company.
