Tzumi Sound Mates
We've had lots of reports of problems with people struggling to connect their two Tzumi SoundMates together. There are multiple posts on our forum about this with confirmed solutions. The two posts we would recommend you start with are this one and this one.
If you are unsure if your SoundMates are charging or what the light colors mean there is clarification of that here.
Apple iPhone 8
Apple products such as iPhones, iPods and iPads are limited in terms of their ability to provide fairly standard Bluetooth functionality such as file sharing between devices, especially when the Apple device is connecting to a non-Apple device such as an Android smartphone. For details of the file sharing issue see: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/18884705/transfer-data-between-ios-and-android-via-bluetooth
There are apps though that can be installed between two Smartphones that can assist with file transfers!
My single ear piece charges, but it will not hold the charge for more than a few hours.

Hi Gomersayshey, was it always like this or has it gotten worse over time ?

Since I got it.

FYI, the charge light, after blinking for a few minutes, remains on, green, and solid. It "appears" to be either charging or all charged.

Thanks for confirming. Different versions of the SoundMates vary in runtime but many variants are designed to last around only 2/2.5hrs. Ref: https://fccid.io/2AON7-5761/User-Manual/User-Manual-4069062

I appreciate the manual. I cannot discern whether the 2 hrs referenced is for "active" use time or "ON" time. If this is for the amount of time that the bud is just turned ON, then this is unacceptable, I need to be able to trust that I will hear a call when it comes in during the entire day, not just the first couple of hours.. the ONLY thing i am trying to use them for is to hear a call or text when it comes in.
