Sensors not updating phone

When I first installed the sensors and app - everything seemed to go as planned. Initial readings were present and updated a time or two. It was then 3 or 4 days before I was within Bluetooth range of my bike. And remained so on a trip. I have not tried to loosen the sensor and retighten to force a reset. Questions: How often should it update? Do the sensors continually try to update whether the phone is within range or not? The last received update indicated both sensor batteries were at 100%. Do I have to be logged in to the website for updates to occur? Do I have to leave the App running in the background at all times, even when not near the bike? If so, can you indicate impact on phone battery?

Dear Lynn Blankenship, Thank you for writing here in the forum. The FOBO Bike 2 sensors advertise data every 2-3 minutes. Updating in the app is related to whether the app is running or your smartphone's Bluetooth functionality. You should only be logged in to the FOBO Bike 2 App and not the website.

Thank You for the prompt reply and excellent response. I didn't have to touch the sensors, simply uninstalling and reinstalling the app started/restarted the updating process. Both sensors are now providing updates. So far I'm very impressed and pleased with your product and company!

The front tire sensor seems to update a lot more frequently than the rear. Front tire is right is a minute or less in elapsed time, rear time is in the 2-5 minutes elapsed time, not sure why. But either frequency should be sufficient as long as it stays the same. Thinking the longer duration might even help extend battery life. Both batteries are still at 100% with the sensors installed for 5 days so far.
