  1. Hi,
    I got a magene c406 as a gift from my brother in Indonesia. When I tried to connect the device to my phone, the bluetooth connection with my mobile magene is loosing after 3 seconds. Again it connects and then it fails.. This continues for many times, even its not connecting in a stabilized manner. I am in India now. How can i move forward?

    1. Dear customer, thank you so much for your of Magene. The C406 bike computer cannot connect to the phone directly. You need to download OnelapFit App, then connect your device to OnelapFit.
