This is a fairly new problem which is caused by the device you buy having a subscription like link to some central server. Older and normal gadgets like a Bluetooth headphone simply don't check-in with a central server to see if they should turn on. I received a similar email from Scanadu Scout this year (an Indiegogo product that allowed you to scan your body for heart rate, bp and a few other metrics). However, in their corporate greed they decided that the Bluetooth device you bought should connect to your phone only as a router to their server. If they had stored their algorithms in the app there's no problem if they decide to shutdown analytics servers one day... They branded it as 'end of beta test' or something like that. I can post the full email if someone wants. Too bad, very useful little device that could have worked for years to come.
