A:AnswerI would say you can use the Vivo Active 5 without a phone. I've had mine for almost a year and for some reason, I can't even get it to notify me with my texts and stuff and it's still keeping track of my steps, heart rate and sleep.
A:AnswerUnfortunately, the watch is telling you the truth. We suggest taking a hot bath, putting on some candles, and perhaps a soothing spotify station. Just remember not to press any buttons while the watch is submerged.
A:AnswerYes. Absolutely. Has the quick connects that you simply squeeze like a necklace clasp to remove. I have purchased a multi-pack of extras on Amazon for around $16 and change them out according to what I'm wearing or when I eventually wear out the little band that holds the bigger band down and in place.
A:AnswerNot exactly. It alerts you to calls on your phone, and you can answer via the watch, however you can not TAKE the call on your watch. You still need to use your phone's speaker/microphone to conduct the call.
A:AnswerI wpuld find a different product, possibly Garmin that can call out. I see how the moniring features would be helpful if it wpuld be used for emergency, however the viviactive 5 does not call out.
