If your Yoho Smartwatch does not connect or bind with the app, try the following steps carefully:

1. Check if Bluetooth is Turned On

   • Disable and re-enable Bluetooth to refresh the connection.

   • Avoid connecting other Bluetooth devices at the same time.

2. Reinstall the App

   • Uninstall the Yoho Sports App completely.

   • Restart your phone.
