FOBO App will discontinue Sept 6 - Switch to FOBO Bike 2 App
I just got a notification that the original FOBO App that I have used with our old FOBOs will be discontinued on September 6th. Do I need to release my old FOBOs before loading the new App or will they automatically be recognized by the new FOBO Bike 2 App?
I doubt I have any of the original registration or serial numbers. Anyone switched to the new App with their 5 year old FOBOs?

Well, when I switched to it hoping to resolve some pesky issues..... I was promptly greeted with a message that my sensors were ALL undetectable! Emailed support and was told that the old sensors DO NOT WORK with the new app!! So you are stuck with buying new sensors or just using the app and hope you never get into a situation that you can't resolve! FYI, I have resolved ALL of the pesky issues by upgrading the firmware on the sensors. BUT, this cannot be done with the Android version of the app!! WTx! You have to use the Apple version to do so! Luckily I had an iPod Touch that could do it....

AeroPilot,
When I bought my new RT, I released my original FOBO1 sensors from my F3 to use on it. I then installed them on my RT using the FOBO1 app, which went smoothly, and I intended to use FOBO1 ongoing. Just out of interest, I loaded the FOBO2 app onto my phone and opened it, and it immediately found my FOBO1 sensors (and settings) with no prompting. FOBO2 app certainly finds the sensors a lot more quickly than FOBO1. So it looks like you can simply open FOBO2 and it will find your existing sensors…….

Looks like things have changed since I tired that! Good news! They must have heard me when I told them, that having to buy new sensors to use an updated app was utter BS!
