Time resets every time watch is turned off?

I'm not sure if this is expected/intentional or if I did something wrong, but the time that I've manually input resets whenever the watch is powercycled. Is there a way to get around this?

Hi @tako,

Yes, it's expected. The Bangle can't keep its time through a reboot - however if you can get a GPS fix then the GPS radio will get the correct time, and then whenever Bangle.js starts it'll check that and use the time from there (so you don't need to re-set it)

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:

That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
