It's complicated! I think I got it set up to do a single daily dose but not 100% sure. It keeps asking me to do a firmware update but cannot figure out how to do it and Coralvue has become useless. Coralvue will only give support by email and thats as good as trying to understand the owners manual. I am pretty frustrated with it and not sure if I can trust it, I am still thinking about returning it. The only thing that keeps me wanting it is the size, it the perfect fit for me.

Make sure you download the correct app to you phone, first time I used the wrong one, make sure its Kamoer Remote, once I did that it connected. Watch the video set up by coralvue, it will help a bit with the set up.

depending on your router you might have some more detailed options as to which band you want to be the "backbone" signal, if you can select 2.4ghz as your backbone. I had trouble connecting and this seemed to do the trick. Seems to be pretty accurate after calibrating, still working on dosing schedule it is not entirely self explanatory at first glance.

I went through the same process with mine, it took multiple attempts at updating the firmware and closing and opening the app for it to work right.

Evening

If the f4 is like the x1 it uses 3mm ID x 5mmo OD. I ordered 5 extra packs from either amazon or eBay when I ordered my 3 x1. I can’t remember.

I just received mine today and im having issues connecting to my 2.4Ghz wifi. Unfortunately this appears to be common with their products (Upgrading from an X4 wifi). Once they work they work well but networking is not a strong suite. Debating on returning it.....

Just got mine and it will not connect to my WI-FI, I have both 5g and 2.4g wi-fi on separate log ons, this unit only connects to 2.4. I have emailed Coralvue and they tell me try things I have already tried and they keep sending me videos that I have seen but do not help. I am hoping I can get Coralvue on the phone in the morning or the unit is going back. Not very good tech support on an expensive item. This unit would have been perfect because of its small foot print, not very happy......let me know if others are having connection issues, thanks
I feel your frustration, been at it for a few hours. Im probably going to return the unit. Way too much of a headache.

Hey what APP did you download to get this thing up and running? I searched on Google Play and did NOT see an APP for F4 Pro App, it does not exist...There are other Apps for Kamoer (((Dosing Pump2, X4 Dosing Pump, Kamoer Pumps, X1 Pump, Dripping Pro, Aquarium Cloud2))) Where am I going wrong on this? Any help would be greatly appreciated....
