This item is just plain junk. I'd be surprised if you can get it to tell the time! Trash trash trash. You and I both got taken.

Don't know yet. We just opened it for birthday last night. I've got the app downloaded but haven't read the directions. I will follow up.

I have the same problem. The only way to get around this that I know of, is to first step on the scale, wait for the reading. Then step off and wait for It to reset, or It says ready. Then step on again and It should be correct. For some reason It is off by 4 or 5 pounds, the first time you use It after auto shutoff. I wonder If the manufacturer knows this ?

I am not aware of any trick in programing. I have not had the issue you are describing. Sorry.

Plug it in if you have the adapter and start peddling ... it beeps, it tells you in the green lighted bar sporadically how many miles you have gone, the calories burned shows up just above where it says: 8 week weight loss : on the solid plate below the green lighted readout bar. You have to turn it on by using the adapter or battery...I don't use batteries so I am unfamiliar with that process. HOPE I HELPED YOU. It is a sporadic read-out...it runs across the screen at random.

To be 100% sure call them up. Press #2 for customer service and ask to speak with a nutritionist. I spoke to one today about some questions I had and she was very informative. (888) 669-3663.

Our Omron pedometer came with a brief but adequate instruction manual - which gives step-by-step instructions how the device can be re-set. If you do not have this small manual, check with <www.omronhealthcare.com> or write to Omron Health Care, Inc., 1923 West Field Court, Lake Forest, IL 60045. Good luck, LO

I don't know where you can find a tutorial. The instructions are not intuitive and it reads a bit confusing. I bought 2 of them, one for our cats and one for our tilapia. I was able to get them both programmed after reading it very slowly several times. Take it in small chunks slowly and it will make some sense. I'm not the sharpest guy in the room and I got it after several tries. Don't give up, just read it very slowly and it'll be revealed. Good luck!

Yes, if you connect it to My Fitness Pal it will tell you you have burned so many calories and now have them to enjoy! There is a fork and knife on the UP application that you can put your foods eaten into. I haven't used it, but it tracks your foods. It is seriously one of my most favorite posessions, and many people at work are now wearing them.

You cannot program by weight. You have to set the timer and then adjust how much in that timed amount using a screw. It takes some time but I have been able to set it for a few kibbles (around 5). I have the digital timer which allows up to 8 feedings.

From another review: I made myself a little cheat sheet for the programming process, printed it out and stuck it on the fridge. Maybe it will help someone. I use two feeding times. Also I use the default "smallest" feeding portion, so I don't have to change that: 1) Turn feeder on. 2) Within 90 seconds, set time: 3) Press "Clock" to set hour / press "Timer" to set minute 4) Press "Set" to confirm. 5) Press "Clock" to toggle between 12/24 hours. 6) Press "Start" to confirm clock settings. 7) Display now shows "1 07" (first feeding at 0700) 8) Press "Set" for two seconds until display flashes. 9) Press "Timer" to set desired feeding time. 10) Press "Set" to program second feeding time. 11) Press "Timer" to set desired feeding time. 12) Press "Start" to save and exit. [To change portion size:] 14) Push VOL key to display portion size. 15) Press and hold the SET key until the digit blinks. 16) Press the VOL key to set the portion size. [ 1 = 1/4 cup, 2 = 1/2 cup etc... ] 17) Press the START key to confirm.

I've got the same problem. It gets as far as flashing lb/kg and that's it. Nothing responds after that and I don't get any numbers to move up or down with. The printed directions are not helpful at all because it doesn't respond after the flashing lb/kg. Am probably going to ship it back. Has anyone had one arrive with an almost dead battery? Maybe that's the issue.

There is a code in the book that came with it, that you scan. You have to enter program mode first, then scan the code. I'm not sure which one it is, but you can try several options until it works.

I think it does. I had to input my weight when setting it up so I figured it was to calculate calories lost.

Same as below, adjust the sensitivity in the set up process. It is not perfect, running on the treadmill with my watch hand holding my hair off my neck and it missed counting steps. Pretty accurate though!

The only info I received with mine was a couple pages explaining how to use it and a couple recipes. U should have received some paper work on it. Contact the Co. U purchased it from.

It doesn't track food...you have to do that manually on sparkpeople.com. This thing only counts steps, basically. It's for sale on sparkpeople.com for $29.99 now. I think a new model is coming out. I returned mine for refund as it wasn't what I thought it was going to be.
