Hi your videos are great. I have a problem where my steps froze yesterday after mths of no problems so followed your video and did full reset. No steps are showing now and I don't know how to get them back. Do you have any ideas thanks

[MarufoVega]

I can't figure out how to bring up a menu of activities. If I press the 2 oclock button I get a circle of icons to lock the device, find the phone etc, no activities. So how to I select and then start an activity like a run or treadmill session etc?

[lourdestremblay]

I got disturbed during my setup and did not get to see the guidance on how to use the watch as when I returned to the phone it had gone to the main screen, is there anyway to replay those prompts/trainings on how to use my watch, this is my first one and I would really like some tips, thanks 🙏🏻

[CindyFridayBeeman]

I watched it all and saw nothing about setting time.

It is beyond me how every picture of this watch looks great and full saturated colours and then you look at the display and it is just unsaturated, uncolourful.. just bad. The same goes for the watch skins. Skins are like photoshoped and you see full red and orange and then you use it in this watches and you see washed out red and brown instead of full nice orange.
