    GW 5 heart rate monitor laggy

    GW 5 heart rate monitor laggy

    oh ok. I gotcha. do you know if the green laser that does the readings gets weak over time or does it just go out all at once?

    GW 5 heart rate monitor laggy

    i've tried holding it down or moving it up the arm slightly but it will just slide back down anyways. it doesn't make it any better holding down on it. I'm left handed and it will drive me crazy to use it on the other arm.

    GW 5 heart rate monitor laggy

    for the past several months my GW 5 has been lagging on reading the heart rate. it's been reset at least once as i reset my phone and had to reset the watch. i think i reset it again because of the heart rate not working as snappy is it did when I first got this earlier in 2024 renewed on...

    selfie wave hand to take picture not working.

    yes i use it all the time. It's a well lit room or i'm near a lamp. never had problems this much before. i rebooted my phone and it seems to help so far. i know with the newest update things got screwed up like the AOD and i thought I read something about the camera.

    i noticed today I'm trying to take selfies and the camera is slow and it's not recognizing my hand most the time to take pictures. i wave my hand a bunch and then when it starts the countdown I'm not ready and not smiling. so i have to try again and after 30 seconds i have to push the...

    August Update

    unfortunately i can't make the screenshot bigger. the forum shrank it down. defeats the purpose of the feature to do a full screen shot of the the whole page.

    Chrome browser "infected" ???

    I'm trying to say I'm looking at other apps, and then the browser comes up with random websites. Probably scam sites. Close it out, go to another app, and then it happens again. Technically it's not a popup.

    Chrome browser "infected" ???

    so a browser app whatever that is, could be loading random websites and bringing the window up at random times when trying to look at other apps? I'll have to look at her phone next time she comes over. I tried looking in the browser before but couldn't figure out what could be causing it...

    Chrome browser "infected" ???

    Have to try that, except it's not a notification. The browser opens up with random web pages when I'm trying to do other things.
