FAQs

Why are my past contacts, data, and chat history missing?

During migration, some information can take a little longer to appear.
What to do now:

  • Keep the watch turned on and charging when possible.
  • Make sure the Spacetalk App is up to date (App Store / Google Play)
  • Ensure you have the latest firmware for your watchLoop (SK2-4G-1) is 1.1.27Adventurer 2 (ST3-4G-1) is 20250926Life (IF_W540M) is 0.1.14.99

If still not working properly, contact Support with your name, the IMEI number of the watch(es), the #watchhelp hashtag, a screenshot and the time it last occurred.

Why is my Spacetalk Watch not working?

Our current migration has caused issues for some users.
Try this (in order):

  1. Make sure your phone app is updated to the latest version here. Even if you have the new version, it’s still good to re-check as we are releasing updates often
  2. Restart the watch (normal restart only; do not factory reset)
  3. If prompted, update watch software in the Spacetalk App.
  4. If still not working properly, contact Support with name, IMEI number, the #watchhelp hashtag, a screenshot and the time it last occurred.
Why are my Watch contacts all in one Space?

The new platform groups trusted contacts in a single Space for better safety and control. You have full control of your Spaces and can easily remove members from that Space in the ⚙️ Settings icon in the top right hand corner, in the Member Management section with the Remove from Space button at the bottom. To check that location is not being shared into this Space, within Member Management tap each user to see what they are sharing into the Space. You can turn permissions off and on for yourself or your Managed Members.

How do I get in touch with customer support?

The fastest way to get in touch with customer support is via our AI chat 'Arti' in the bottom right hand corner of this page.

How do I invite members who don’t have the Spacetalk App/smart device?
  1. All trusted contacts now need the Spacetalk App to connect.
  2. Invite steps: Open the Spacetalk App → Space → tap the + icon in the bottom right hand corner → Add member → Invite or Share code → send the invite link/code to the person you trust. They can join and set up their profile quickly.
Why can’t I login?

The login and join page are the same screen, when signed out of the app. To sign-in simply enter your email or phone number associated with your account. An OTP (one time password) will be sent to both the email and phone number attached to your account.
If you’re directed to a profile setup page, please try again using different details. For example, the email address you entered may have been incorrect. If you are still being asked to set-up your profile, we suggest you raise this with us, providing your email, phone number, and the day and time which you last experienced this issue.

How can I use the old Spacetalk App?

The old Spacetalk app is no longer in use. To provide better security and enhanced features, we’ve upgraded our technology and moved all customers to the new, more secure platform.
