To connect a Q7 smartwatch to an Android phone, you need the free Da Fit app and an Android device running Android OS 9 or higher. The connection is managed entirely through the app, not your phone's native Bluetooth settings.
Before you connect your Q7 smartwatch to an Android phone: Prerequisites
Ensure your Q7 smartwatch is fully charged. Verify which specific Q7 model you own, as some models require different apps: the standard Q7 uses Da Fit, the Q7+ uses the X-FIVE Wearables app, and the Q7 Sport uses the Q7 Sport Smartwatch App. If your smartwatch was previously paired directly through your phone's Bluetooth settings, you must unpair (forget) it from those settings before proceeding. If the smartwatch was previously paired directly via your phone's Bluetooth, unpair (forget) it from your phone's Bluetooth settings before attempting to connect through the app. A smartphone is required for the watch to set time, receive notifications, weather, set goals, and review activity data.
Step 1: Install the Da Fit app and set up your account
Download and install the Da Fit app from the Google Play Store on your Android phone. Open the Da Fit app and follow the on-screen prompts to create an account or log in.
Step 2: Grant permissions to the Da Fit app
Allow all requested notifications and pairing access permissions for the Da Fit app on your smartphone for full functionality. For Android users, specifically grant the Da Fit app access to notifications within your phone's native settings.
Step 3: Pair your Q7 smartwatch inside the Da Fit app
- From the Da Fit app's dashboard (home screen), tap the watch icon located in the upper right corner.
- Tap "Add A Device" to initiate a search for your Q7 smartwatch.
- Select "Q7" from the list of found devices to pair.
- If multiple Q7 devices appear, tap and hold the home screen of your Q7 smartwatch for 3 seconds to display its MAC address, then match it with the pairing request in the app.
How to confirm the connection was successful
A white Bluetooth icon in the upper right corner of the main watch face indicates a successful connection. The Da Fit app will also display "Connected" and show the watch's battery life when successfully paired.
Troubleshooting: Q7 smartwatch won't connect or sync
If syncing issues occur, restart the smartwatch by navigating to Settings, tapping "Power Off," confirming, and then holding the screen to power it back on. A factory reset of the smartwatch, accessible via the 'Reset' icon in the watch's Settings, can also resolve persistent connection or syncing problems. The Q7 Smartwatch and your Android phone must remain within Bluetooth range for continuous data syncing and notification reception.

Make sure the app is allowed to run in the background and that your phone's Bluetooth is always on.
