Bond Touch - Long-Distance Bracelet

I bought this for my bestfriends birthday and we absolutely love it!! I bought 2 separate ones so I got gold and she got silver. Incredibly flexible, light weight, small, and easy to set up! You can change the glow color, send different pattern vibrations, text through the app, and more. They came sooner than expected! Definitely a perfect every day wear type of jewelry with the best perks of keeping you and your friends and lovers close. Worth the buy 💕

Our Purpose: I bought these for my husband for Valentine's Day this year 2021. He absolutely loves the idea of them. They are not only for distant relationships they're very comforting for in person relationships. We use them just to tell each other we're thinking about each other even while we're in the house together or sitting next to each other. They're great for providing support when you're in a stressful situation and you know your partner's are backing you up because you can feel your bond tickling. They are fantastic for anxiety and depression also.Battery: The battery lasts about a week; just make sure they're connected before you walk away. My husband has no problem, for some reason I do. 🤭Thickness: the bands are not very thick at all. In my photos I compared it to a large paper clip. They are very comfortable and durable. You can get them wet during your daily process of washing your hands, rinsing off dishes things like that. We do not submerge our bonds. Most people think it's a fitbit or something similar. 😂Accuracy/Range: This would be our only complaint about the bands. They work on the Bluetooth of your phone, so when you're too far away from your phone you still receive touches, but only on your phone not your band. I know in 2021 almost everyone has their phone with them at all times. Even if I leave it somewhere in the house and go to another part of the house it doesn't work. It's absolutely could only just be in us issue and we need to always carry our phones. 😉App: The app is super easy to use and so user friendly. There's really nothing to it which is the beauty of it. The greatest thing about it is you can go back and replay the touches you've received and sent and you can feel them on your Bond. 😊To the developers: I would like to say thank you with all of my heart. Since using our bonds in February the tocuhes have ended disagreements, helped with anxiety and depression. We are a very close couple, being apart is hard when you work a lot. Your product is wonderful! Again, Thank You so very much.

It comes in a box containing two smaller boxes. Each smaller box contains one bond touch bracelet and one charger, in addition to a set of instructions. All in all two (2) bracelets, two (2) chargers, and two (2) sets of instructions. You’re told the battery will last around 4 days, and that may be true with significantly less use, but I would say if you’re going to use this semi-regularly, you’ll need to charge it every 2-3 days. Also, once you slide (Don’t pop it on) the charging module on the bracelet, and plug it up, it takes around 30 seconds before it starts flashing the first time, so don’t be alarmed by that as I was. My girlfriend and I use this often and we both love it. We’ve come up with our own code based on the number and longevity of the buzz(es) we send. I do highly recommend this product, and say you should have nothing to worry about. It’s a good purchase.

The bond touch was a great wedding anniversary fit that I got for my wife. It allows you to send 'touches' to your spouse. We use it as a subtle reminder to one another that we are thinking of each other throughout the day. We have also set up on own emergency code, that let's us know if the other is in trouble. A feature in the accompanying app that we really enjoy is the secure messaging. It allows us to talk discreetly and with out risk of sending errant messages to others. The messages and photos sent through the app, automatically delete after a period of time.Battery Life seems ok, it all depends on how often your send and receive 'touches.' This fit is fine as well. I have a large wrist and it fit me with room to spare and my wife used that same band and was able to achieve a snug fit.Overall, the Bond Touch is a fun little device, that I wish I had discovered years ago, as I'm sure it would have been appreciated in various assignments across country and overseas.

I recently got a Bond Touch Bracelet for my long-distance relationship, and it’s amazing! This bracelet really helps us feel connected, even when we’re miles apart. Whenever I touch mine, my partner's bracelet lights up and vibrates, which is such a sweet reminder that we’re thinking of each other. It’s definitely worth the money, and I love that we each have one, making it even more special. If you’re in a long-distance relationship, you have to buy these! They make staying close so much easier and bring a lot of joy to our days!

My boyfriend and I suffer from anxiety. We also are both single parents and live very busy lives. I bought these for us to remind each other we are thinking about each other when we can’t be together . Sometimes we aren’t able to talk on the phone or we are unable to text so this is super important for us. I also got one for my oldest son who suffers from anxiety and lives out of town. It helps him a lot as well! Best product ever ! It’s easy to charge and it shows you and your partner the battery life of your phone and the bond touch! The app is super simple to use and has a great feature for a count down when you will see each other again!
