New Software for PC

[originalstarlite]

A new version of software just popped out: 1.3.1106.2 and yes, it installs without 8.1 PRO!

Maybe someone is listening.

So I was a little excited that this got fixed. Installed it.. plugged in my band.. and then.. and then...

This is a pretty worthless app, eh? Can't view/edit/delete activity or anything. It's somehow more worthless than the first Windows Phone 8 desktop app..

You are right. It is nothing more than a charging dock. :unhappysweat:

It also syncs with the Cloud and updates the band firmware. Yesterdays new version was needed to better enable some phone programs interface with the Band. Nothing new was added, but when new App interfaces are added it will be through this program.

New to Band. I don't get this. The app on my phone lets me see all my results. The app on my ipad lets me see all the results. The app for my desktop windows 8.1 only syncs, shows me battery life, etc. How do I see all my results on my desktop?

Currently, you cannot. The desktop app only syncs. There is a program called Unband that allow you to access data from Band on PCs. The latter is not MS product.
