Battery Drainage

My myFirst Fone R2 watch battery does not last long. What can I do?

The actual working time of the myFirst Fone R2 varies based on the smartwatch settings and the frequency of location updates. Under normal usage, the battery usually lasts up to a day (approximately 8 to 16 hours). Daily charging is required.

Here are some tips to extend the battery life of your myFirst Fone R2:

1. Adjust Screen Brightness
Set the brightness of the myFirst Fone R2 to low or auto mode.

Swipe down on the main screen to see 8 icons. The yellow icon adjusts the screen brightness.

2. Optimize GPS Location Updates

Set the GPS location update (Tracking Mode) on the myFirst Circle app to update every 1 hour to reduce power consumption. You can set shorter tracking update times when you need to know the exact location of your child, (while traveling to school or returning home from school).

3. Turn off Auto Tracking
Turn off auto tracking in tracking mode to monitor and reduce battery drainage.

4. Proper Charging
Ensure the watch is charged for 1-1.5 hours and avoid overnight charging.

5. Keep Watch Software Updated

Make sure the watch software are up to date. 

By following these steps, you can maximize the battery life of your myFirst Fone R2 and ensure it functions optimally throughout the day.
