The Digimon Vital Bracelet App Shutdown - What You Need To Know!

[@LostinTranslationmon]

Check out my end of the Vital Bracelet Review video here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/q5SappSvfN-Me7M

[@Thomaswake]

It's amazing just how much faster the app is without the online stuff

[@larrysilvers8134]

Oh wow 😮, this is nuts just how much faster it loads everything. Makes me wonder what was going on behind the scenes when it was online that slowed it down so much.

[@chaosoli33]

I have a question. Can this app still be used and downloaded ? I have seen very low offers on eBay for vital bracelets and it’s additions. Is it now pretty much worthless ? I know those digivice tamagochis no matter which version are gold worth online but those vital bracelets seem pretty cheap

[@Thomaswake]

@@chaosoli33 Yeah the app is still up and able to download. Worthless? I wouldn't say that but no new ones will be coming to the normal VB, but the BE just got a new crossover. If you're not sure about them just get the cheap one but the BE is really the way to go since it can use both the older ones and the BE cards

[@hellohaveagoodday]

​@@chaosoli33I'm in the same boat but yes you can download the app, I just also don't know which bracelet to get 😅

I didn't know this was happening and didn't open the app in the past couple months while I was moving and changing jobs. Tried to open the app and couldn't connect. Found out about this and since I didn't connect, I lost all my data...devastated... I had tons of S tiers on all my favorites...now I have to start over from scratch...What makes it even worse is apparently I only missed this by about 4 days...

[@Flirtz420]

Hopefully sumone makes an app so we can battle one another again. I’m gonna miss the tournaments/raids and vs battles!

[@SometimewithTim]

It’s really hard to trust Bandai with mobile games cuz they shut down so many mobile games too fast. 🙄.

[@Joe_334]

It's like shutting off a game after an hour of playing. I wonder if they have a crazy backlog of games too, lol

[@haruglory6409]

I just skip everything with bandai name these day. Very sad, i'm growing up with many good bandai games.

[@scar6320]

I do wish they wouldve sold it to someone or some companie that wouldve kept the online stuff cause i havent had my be that long I think I got mine when the agumon from data squad dim card came out so i didnt really get to experience the online version that much which sucks cause I really was excited to do that

[@theWEITNA]

I feel like a digidestined because I was concerned for my digimon when I heard about this update.

[@Joe_334]

I think developing a digimon in something like Blender is viable at this point. I have one that is stuck in blender hell right now. Can't get the meshes to stop stretching on the Ultimate and Mega digi-volutiom Stages.

[@jordanstephens4178]

Had the watch for a year and its def done its job for me and my 7 year old boy..we love just starting up a new dim (BE and VB) and working our way to mega...still have tons of digimon to unlock so as long as we can keep doing that im still happy with my purchase. Does suck that i never dived into the online battles..why couldnt they just keep that up as well. Hopefully they do something similar to the watches in the future. Probably my favorite "digivice" amd ive been a fan since 99 lol

[@larrysilvers8134]

I'll admit ever since about this time last year when my VB's charging cable got damaged, I just gave up on my vb. I still have it and I like the look of it, it is the special version that came with the dragonic blaze and rampage of the beasts dims. I just didn't enjoy the stat training since it always felt regardless of how much training I did my digimon, they'd still get beaten by digimon that shouldn't have beaten them. I also think the battery life of the VBBE was atrocious. I will use it again because I only managed to complete the dragonic blaze dim. Good to see that Bandai learnt something from the shutdown of the first app, giving us a way to continue using the app and collecting digimon. I'm engrossed in the Digimon Liberator web novel and web comic series they're doing for the TCG. Giving new evolutions of current digimon to the main cast digimon of the novel and introducing new digimon in the comic.

[@Lightmaster677]

So...are those who missed the deadline just...screwed then? We just get the 2 spots on the Vital Hero and that's it? No way to store them externally now?

[@Lightmaster677]

Update to this, turns out you can just re-download the app and you get the update with that. All is good.

[@WakoDoodle]

Thanks for the heads up, downloading the update and running as we speak. Still, I wish they had another digivice/VB, etc... ready and revealed before they close stuff; they do it with their mobile games too. I know they can't keep it running forever but atm we're kinda in a digimon drought; the least they could do is keep it opening until the next game is revealed. XD Still I wonder if the events still run offline? I missed a few of them so if they're timed in the app it would be amazing!

[@bentarcher]

I'm actually surprised the level of effort they put in to preserving what they could with this offline mode. Also thanks for the public service with this.

[@LostinTranslationmon]

Absolutely!

[@leocampo2755]

Unbelieve,marvellous & magnificent video Lost in Traslationmon,bless for you I send you a gretting 👋🏻

[@ChrisTuten]

Has anyone had any issues where data does not transfer when moving to a new phone? The app itself moved but 'mons and banners didn't. Old phone is Z Fold 5, new phone is Z Fold 6, and method of transfer was Samsung's Smart Switch for point of reference.

[@camilo7197]

Volví a descargar la app y se me queda pegada en la pantalla de carga, que hago? 😭😭😭😭

[@darbiuga3468]

Ya no es el LAB, ahora es otro xd, VB arena, algo así

[@MCzag274]

Sadly my save data got stuck on 65% and wouldn't complete so I tried force stopping it and that did nothing. I uninstalled and then reinstalled to all of my data being lost. I still have my old idea and linked my account but I'm pretty sure that feature is completely gone now too.

[@LostinTranslationmon]

Yeah, as I mentioned in this video, the Bandai ID link has been removed.

[@mooriannkeo7900]

I'm having the same issue with it being stuck every time I launch. This app is mind numbingly infuriating till it's bitter death.

[@Aquazeem]

I'm still fairly new to Digimon but the Vital Bracelet BE is prob one of the most fun things I've had in a while. Does this mean they're done with the vital bracelet line? I really like it as an accessory compared to the keychain style of digimon, but I feel like I got into it a bit late unfortunately

[@LostinTranslationmon]

Yeah, they're likely done with it

[@Jurrzo]

I wish the be had vs dims or a update befir shuting down the update would be for the be where our bracelet can touch other bracelet and we can accpet the battle or delcine it

[@jackbporter1159]

I just got mine and now i cant have fun and battle now i can only hope that bandai is kind and makes an offline version :(

[@Flirtz420]

I love the vital bracelet and the BE. A Fitbit was perfect for digimon since they r suppose to be linked to us n our emotions n bodies. I also loved that it was a watch so it was easy to wear/carry.

[@ManuelLopez-ut1kx]

Hopefully Bandai expands on this in the future like an actual app for the apple watch or something with the same concept as dims but just like downloadable digimon instead of

[@Om214]

I actually wasn't too worried about all my Digimon I have in storage...I was actually more concerned about keeping all of the items I've accumulated over time! Unfortunately, it seems the save data from my old phone didn't transfer over to my new one, so I'm back at square one...

[@chaseklein-ch2me]

Why can’t I open my app now?

[@DarkRacerDryBones]

My anxiety went through the roof lol I thought I lost everything I worked so hard on but thank goodness we are gonna be able to keep our digimon! But just to clarify will adventure mode still work so that we can get items?

[@LostinTranslationmon]

Yep!

[@theUeki49]

thats awsome as someone who only check their app just now.....RIP the app doesnt even ask for the offline mode now.

[@theUeki49]

I'm starting from square one now and wow the app runs so much faster.

[@R-SXX]

I do not miss the online mode - and at least they give us an offline version; but I suspect the app will be not available after september? Thus, everyone who buys a bracelet cannot even get the offline version?

[@LostinTranslationmon]

Thankfully, places like qooapp exist and people can still get the app. If you download the app for the first time now, it still creates local data.

[@notaprinny]

Replying in december - app is still available. Started using my watch again last month and only just found out that the online portion was shut down lol

[@rannithewitch9553]

​@notaprinny worth it without online

[@notaprinny]

@@rannithewitch9553 I believe so yeah.

[@mooriannkeo7900]

I'm glad I'm not the only one suffering from a stagnant progress bar. (76% for me) And everyone who reinstalls loses all data, which already happened to me once with the original app migration. Unbelievably frustrating to basically have to sit in limbo without the use of my now stuck app, which means I can't transer any mons rn. And If I reinstall I am most certainly going to lose my data AGAIN and that will legit make me put this system down.

[@endino1254]

So i can buy a vital bracelet and only use the offline things?

[@Joe_334]

So, could they somehow make this into a local card game, where the attack phase is a simple battle from between the vital bracelets? I am not familiar with the actual card game, but the battles look like they could work in a TCG Format.

[@LostinTranslationmon]

Nope.

[@Flirtz420]

Wonder how long they gonna keep it up though.

[@Royalmeowjesty]

I've downloaded the app, but I'm only just about to buy the bracelet and some dim cards. Will I still have to connect the bracelet and all the dim cards before 30th Oct?

[@ReinaErmita]

I just hope they at least leave the arena even if we fight an AI and get item out of it.

[@Huvinator]

My question is, If I get a new dim card I didn't have later on, will the codex work for it since I hadn't previously registered it?

[@LostinTranslationmon]

Yep! Since that's part of the offline gameplay

[@noeljacobs4973]

So currently you can’t PvP with the BE vital bracelet? Because of the no versus memory dim compatibility?

[@LostinTranslationmon]

Correct.

[@Glinoe92]

Ask the app when are they going to close it?

[@coloresajenos]

So after october can we still dowload the app? My original VB and the phone i had with NFC both of them died :(, i've considered buying another VB giving that i have lots of DiM Cards, but with this i don't know i never dowloaded the second app

[@LostinTranslationmon]

I'm not sure, I wouldn't assume so, so it's best to download it now while it can be downloaded. However, people will host the apk elsewhere if that's the case, but it's best to download just in case.

[@jadrawkz4595]

What means we cannot use app anymore we have our device now how to link them

[@LostinTranslationmon]

Not sure what you're asking, you can still use the app as mentioned in this video.

[@hellohaveagoodday]

Oh nice as soon as i get into something it's going to shut down lmao, man i still don't know which bracelet to get there are just so damn many 😭

[@LostinTranslationmon]

The BE is the most recent one.

[@hellohaveagoodday]

@@LostinTranslationmon is it good? I'm just trying to justify the price of it between the £20 vital hero and the £40 BE, plus dim cards 😅

[@LostinTranslationmon]

Absolutely much better than the Vital Hero! I love my BE!

[@ManuelLopez-ut1kx]

So does this mean the actual Vital Bracelet BE got an update as well other than 2.0.A?

[@LostinTranslationmon]

No, this is just the app.

[@RogueJadeite]

I still can't read the text :(

[@mebreevee]

I miss the VBLab

[@SylverQrow]

I thought i updated 😞

[@chelseavictoria3312]

Mine is stuck at 32%...

[@LostinTranslationmon]

Still? I wonder if the servers are overloaded now...

[@Xhjon]

93% here

[@DiegoPrs]

​​@@LostinTranslationmon Nope, it's just the incompetence of Bandai. If you missed an update, you won't be able to update the offline version bc it gets stuck in some percentage (76% in my case). The only way for us who skipped a version or 2 of the app is to reinstall the app and lose all the data. Still waiting to see if they fix this amateur mistake, but not too hopeful, so I'll probably just uninstall the app forever if that's the case.

[@digi-buddies]

I hope they leave the practice game arena behind so you can still play with your digimon thru the app

[@jw24119]

All my digimon are gone…..😢

[@haruglory6409]

Goodbye Vital Bracelet, i come to this channel this day after i done selling all my last dim on marketplaces for years, done uninstall the app, farewell, maybe, who knows, good digimon games reunite us once again 😂

[@digimonprofessor1481]
