What Counts as a Faulty Sensor?

A sensor may be considered faulty if:

  • It won’t connect to the Nico app after setup

  • It stops sending readings unexpectedly

  • You see repeated error messages in the app

  • The sensor fails shortly after application

  • Readings are clearly incorrect or inconsistent despite proper use

Please reach out to the support team to determine if there's an issue with your sensor.

Step 1: Check a Few Quick Things First

Before requesting a replacement, please try the following:

  • Make sure the sensor is properly applied and secure

  • Confirm Bluetooth is turned on and the app is up to date

  • Restart the Nico app and your phone

  • Ensure the sensor has completed its warm-up period

Many issues can be resolved with these quick checks.

Step 2: Contact Support

Include the following details to help us assist you faster:

  • A brief description of the issue
