    Instagram users, quick question for you!

    Hi! I'm considering the OnePlus 7 Pro, really loving the size of the screen that is unsullied by front-facing cameras! I don't take selfies at all so the pop-up camera tucked out of the way sounds perfect for me. One thing I was wondering though, I post lots of stories on Instagram and when I...

    New Speed Charge/Battery Status Lock Screen with annoying ads "just appeared" on GN4

    Arg this took me ages to track down what was doing this, like others, ads are one thing, but this new screen meant it was an additional step to unlocking your phone when charging! For me, it was ES File Explorer, just go into settings and untick 'Charging Boost' at the bottom of the list. What...

    Asus ZenWatch 2

    Hmmm well the good news is that I don't have to worry about upgrading to this version! Battery life stated as two days with the screen on permanently sounds impressive, the crown button is the major difference, not sure I feel the need for this though on the current gen. I was hoping for a...

    Is anybody else having a problem with always on mode on a Zenwatch?

    Same here, the only solution I found was to ask for a replacement.

    Steps numbers gone crazy

    Since, maybe a few weeks ago the steps recorded on my Zenwatch have gone crazier than a bag of spiders. I know on average I do between 7,500 - 10,000 steps a day if I have my normal routine. Lately it's gone over 15, 20, even 25k steps a day. It was on the same pedometer sensitivity as it...

    New Zenwatch won't charge

    I had this exact problem after one or two days of initial use - it didn't charge over night and when I tried to get it working that evening, the square charging light in the cradle itself didn't come on, so it was an issue with either the cradle or the watch itself. I had to return & get a...

    Software Version 5.0.2

    Since this update, mine seems faster generally, or maybe less issues that cause lag (slow processes), anyone else?

    Files moved to SD card are playing Hooky

    Yeh if it's a Sandisk then welcome to the party. At first I thought this was just some weird error or restriction after the Android lock-down for general copying files to SD, I got around this by copying media to it from my PC. But now I've noticed that it appears to let you delete/add files...

    Why the zenwatch over the 360?

    I agonised over the choice between these two but in the end went for the Zenwatch mostly because: Premium design, square face (don't miss anything with the edges), easier surface (the 360 looks like you hit the edge of the surround when swiping maybe?), customisable with watch straps I like the...

    Is anybody else having a problem with always on mode on a Zenwatch?

    Ah I was about to reply to tell you you're not alone but we were both talking about this on another forum. Just to let others know, you're not alone, it's an issue on mine as well and it seems to maybe affect those sold in the UK, maybe a batch or something. I have have also emailed ASUS to...

    Question before buying Asus ZenWatch

    Yeh the battery life seems to be about the same as others but of course depends on how much you use it, if screen is always on and how many notifications you get! For me, screen off, maybe lasts a day and a half. Occasionally though it drains very quickly without warning so doesn't last a...
