  • Ensure notifications for the app are enabled.
  • Power off the smartwatch and repeat the pairing steps.

Bluetooth is disconnecting. The watch is too far from your phone.
  • Reduce the distance between the watch and your phone.
  • Ensure there is no more than 5m distance between the devices.
  • Remove any metal jewellery as this interferes with the stability of the connection.
The time displayed on my watch and phone is inconsistent. Watch is not connected to the phone. Ensure your watch is connected to your phone through the app and not directly through your phone's Bluetooth.
Number of steps on the app and the watch does not match. Watch is not synchronised to the phone. Ensure your watch and the app are synchronised. Open the app and wait until syncing is confirmed.
Watch is not charging. Charging contacts may be dirty or rusty. Clean the charging contacts on both the watch and charging cable.
Music is playing from the watch rather than my Bluetooth speaker. Bluetooth Audio is enabled. On the watch, go to settings → Phone call and switch "Bluetooth Audio" off.
Outdoor exercise tracking on the watch isn't consistent with the data on my other exercise tracking apps. This watch does not have in-built GPS. To make use of your phone's GPS, you must initiate the workout in the DaFit app's workout section and have your phone present with you during the workout. Even when connected to your phone's GPS, some data discrepancies between the watch and other fitness apps (Strava etc.) may occur due to the relative positions of your phone and watch during exercise.
