CHARGING & BATTERY

How can I charge my Spacetalk Life?

The supplied charging cradle magnetically attaches to the rear of your Life watch.

Plug one end of the supplied USB-C cable into the charging dock and the other end into a 5V/1Amp USB power source.

It is normal operation for the light on the charging cradle to be red whilst charging. A green charging light indicates Spacetalk Life is fully charged.

Once the watch is sufficiently charged, the screen will illuminate and display a charging symbol for 5 seconds.

How can I maximise the battery life of my Life?

Ensure your Life is fully charged overnight to a 100% battery capacity.

Short location update intervals (e.g. 5 minutes) are not recommended for day to day use as they will consume the battery faster. For the best battery performance, we suggest using your Location by Request feature in combination with a longer update interval or interval updates turned off.

Keeping your watch's software up to date will also ensure you can benefit from the latest battery optimisations.

If you are using a pre-paid SIM card, it is also recommended to check that your SIM card has credit balance on it as battery life can be impacted due to data connectivity issues if your SIM card runs out of credit.

My Spacetalk Life won't charge

If Spacetalk Life does not appear to charge, follow these steps:

  1. Attach the charging cradle to Spacetalk Life and confirm that the light turns to red after a few moments. This indicates that Spacetalk Life is charging.
  2. Inspect the 4 golden contacts on the charging cradle and on the rear of the Spacetalk Life watch for damage.
  3. Ensure Spacetalk Life is seated correctly on the charging cradle and the watch is not upside down and not meeting with the gold charging contacts.
  4. Try connecting the charging cradle to a different USB power source to ensure the charging cradle is receiving power.
  5. Clean the gold contacts on the charging cable and on Spacetalk Life with a dry cloth.
  6. Perform a soft reset. To perform a soft reset hold the power button down for 5 seconds, then place the Spacetalk Life back on the charger for 10 minutes.

How do I view my Battery Level? 

You can check the battery level in a variety of ways. To check the battery level on the watch, swipe down at the clock screen to see the battery level, network signal strength, volume and brightness control.

Some watch faces also allow the battery level to be visible on the watch face.

From the Spacetalk app, the battery level will be displayed next to the device name on the map screen.

NETWORK CONNECTION

No Network Connection

You can check the network signal strength on your Life by swiping from the top to bottom on the touch screen. The network signal strength and the network name should be displayed. If it isn't, follow these steps:

  • Check that flight mode is not active.
  • Check that the SIM card has been inserted correctly.
  • Hold down the Power Button for 20 seconds to perform a soft reset.
  • Confirm the SIM card has been activated correctly with your provider. If in doubt, remove the SIM card from your watch and test in another device or phone.
  • Check that voice, SMS and data are working.Confirm the SIM card has valid credit. If necessary, recharge the SIM using the provider's recharge process.
  • If available, try another SIM card in your Life.

Network Error Messages

'No SIM' messages: The watch is unable to recognise a SIM card within the SIM card reader.

We recommend turning the watch off, taking the SIM card out, ensuring there is no damage to the SIM card or the watch itself. Re-insert the SIM card into the watch and power the watch back on.

If the watch is displaying signal bars and also 'No connection' on the clockface, to narrow down the source of the issue, navigate to the information menu on the watch by swiping down and selecting the settings then information and select 'Software Update'. This will prompt the watch to use the SIM card's mobile data to check for the latest software. Dependent on the result of this, please see below for next action:

'Your Spacetalk is already on the latest software': The watch is able to access sufficient mobile data from the SIM card. If the watch is still showing 'no connection' ensure that the SIM also has sufficient credit allowance. This can be done by making a call to the watch, letting it go through as a missed call and returning the call.

If after the above troubleshooting does not resolve the 'No connection' message displayed on the watch, contact our support team.
