My Spur runs out of battery faster than usual. What should I do?

Without enabling the HR monitoring mode, Spur is able to last 3 to 5 days after a full charge.
There might be a few reasons why your battery level runs out faster than usual.

You may have:
Turned on HR monitoring mode for a long period of time
As enabling the HR monitoring mode requires the tracker to constantly detect the pulse with high-intensity green light-emitting diodes (LEDs), the battery tends to drain out faster than usual.
You are advised to enable it at certain periods of time for a better analysis of your HR reading.

Received a large number of call/message/email notifications
Every time a call/message/email notification is received, a light vibration will be triggered.
You can conserve battery by enabling only applications that matter to you most.

Unplugged the tracker before it is fully charged
A full charge should take approximately 2 hours.
If you have unplugged the tracker before it is fully charged, your tracker will tend to drain out faster than usual.

Tapped and activated the screen display too many times
You can conserve battery by disabling the “Activate Display on Wrist Raise” feature to prevent the display from lighting up unintentionally.

Heart Rate

How does Spur track my heart rate?

The Actxa Spur has PPG (photoplethysmogram) sensors which uses high-intensity green light-emitting diodes (LEDs) and photodetectors that provides reliable monitoring of the pulse rate in a non-invasive manner.

How accurate is Spur’s heart rate technology?

Spur is designed as a simple and non-intrusive device to help every individual measure and monitor their heart rate readings while doing their everyday workout.

It is not catered for experienced athletes who require accuracy in a beat-by- beat basis, which can only be obtained by electrocardiography (ECG) sensors.

To improve the accuracy of your heart rate readings, you are advised wear the Actxa Spur approximately one finger-width away from your wrist bone, and ensure the buckle is secured for a tight, but breathable fit.

How can I track my heart rate while doing a workout?

What does the “target heart rate zones” in my activity report mean?

The different heart rate zones tells you that your body is working at the zones which has different benefits specific to it unless your workout consists of using more than 1 heart rate zone.

Max HR zone (90 – 100%): Training in this zone requires you to be working out in a very high intensity. It is not sustainable for long periods of time and unsuitable for first-timers. After a workout in this zone, you should get a good recovery before the next workout session to avoid fatigue and injuries. Train in this zone to improve your performance and maximal speed.

Intense zone (80 – 89.9%): Training in this zone is a good and fast way of getting fit. If you wish to improve strength and speed endurance, you should aim to achieve this zone.

Cardio zone (70 – 79.9%): You should be able to sustain in this zone for a longer duration. You may be breathless at times but it gives you the most health benefits especially for those who are just starting to exercise.

Fat Burn zone (60 – 69.9%): You are able to burn the most total body fat by training in this zone but you have to workout for long duration about 30-60 mins or more. It varies between individuals due to type of training, food intake, genetics and etc.

Warm-up zone (50 – 59.9%): This zone is suitable before starting a workout whereby it involves the body to get used to the environment and get ready like an engine revving up. Do incorporate dynamic stretching to avoid getting any injuries during the session itself – it is like stretching a cold band which will break!

Relax zone(< 50%): Being in this zone means that your body is slowly getting into its normal state whereby it is rested after a hard workout. Don’t forget to stretch to reduce muscle soreness, improves the body recovery as well as blood circulation in the body.

Disclaimer: Consult your doctor/physiotherapist/certified coaches for more details regarding your fitness training plans.

What is the recommended duration which I should train in each zone to be healthy?

According to Health Promotion Board (HPB), every individual is recommended to accumulate 150 minutes of moderate intensity (60 – 69.9%) or 75 minutes of high intensity (80-89.9%) aerobic exercise per week.
Health benefits of regular physical activity include a 20 – 50% reduced risk of premature death, incidence of coronary heart disease, type 2 diabetes, depression, stroke, high blood pressure, colon cancer and breast cancer, to name just a few.

What is Resting Heart Rate (RHR)? Why is it important?

According to the American Heart Association, resting heart rate is the number of times your heart beats per minute while it’s at rest. Best taken after a good night’s sleep, before getting out of bed, the average resting heart rate is 60-80 beats per minute, but it’s usually lower for physically fit people. RHR also rises with age.

Measuring your RHR regularly is important for you to know if your daily workout routine is paying off.
The more exercise you do, the fitter you get, the lower your RHR becomes.
According to the AHA, active people often have lower RHR because their heart muscle is in better condition and doesn’t need to work as hard to maintain a steady beat.

Consult your doctor if your resting heart rate is consistently above 100 beats a minute (tachycardia) or if you’re not a trained athlete and your resting heart rate is below 60 beats a minute (bradycardia) — especially if you have other signs or symptoms, such as fainting, dizziness or shortness of breath.

How to measure my Resting Heart Rate (RHR)?

Upon launching the Actxa app, you will be prompted to measure your RHR if you have not done so for the day. Tap on the green prompt and follow the on-screen instructions.

For best heart rate tracking:
– Position the Actxa Spur+ approximately one finger-width away from your wrist bone, and ensure the buckle is secured for a tight, but breathable fit.
– Measure after a good night’s rest and before getting out of bed.
– Be calm and keep still for 5 minutes.

Note: To ensure that there is only 1 data per day, the previous record will be deleted if you take another RHR reading.

How do I preset a recurring day/time that my tracker will take my Resting Heart Rate (RHR) measurement?

For optimum accuracy, you are advised to measure your RHR at the same day/time.
Use this feature to preset a day and time to take your RHR measurement automatically.

To preset day/time to measure your RHR:
1. Launch the Actxa app.
2. Tap on “Devices”.
3. Swipe the icons from right to left.
4. Tap on “Preset RHR”.
5. Toggle on “Enable Preset RHR”.
6. Select your desired day(s) and time that the tracker will measure your RHR automatically.

How do I view my Resting Heart Rate (RHR) measurement?

After measuring your RHR, you will be directed to the RHR results page.
The value you see represents your RHR of the day.
Take your RHR measurement regularly to see if your daily workout routine is paying off!

To know if your daily exercise routine is paying off, compare it with your Average RHR.
If your current measurement falls below your Average RHR, it shows that your fitness level is improving.
If your current measurement falls above your Average RHR, it shows that your fitness level is declining.

You will also be able to see your lowest RHR record and highest RHR record.
This will show you if you’ve beaten your best and worst record so far!

Note: You need at least 2 or more RHR measurements to view a more thorough analysis.

Activity

How can I track if I’ve hit my daily goal for my fitness activities?

On your Spur, you will be able to view your real time activity statistics for the day.
Your Spur will vibrate the moment you achieve your goal.
Subsequently, a star icon will be shown on each of the achieved activity screens.

If you have synced your Spur with the Actxa app, you will be able to see your daily progress on the Dashboard.

For tracking your daily, weekly and monthly progress, view it on the History page.

I feel that my activity tracking is inaccurate. What should I do?

There might be a few reasons why you are unable to track your heart rate.

Inaccurate Stride Length
The default stride length used to calculate your steps count or distance is 70 cm.
You may alter your stride length on the Profile page via the Actxa app.

Wrist You Wear
You are advised to wear your tracker on your non-dominant hand.
However, if you feel that it is not sensitive enough, wear it on your dominant hand instead.

Excessive Arm Movements
If you perform activities that require more arm movements (such as cooking), more steps will be accumulated unintentionally. Before you perform such activities, you may remove your tracker to prevent any discrepancies.

Why are there no activity logs on my Spur after 12 midnight?

All activity data will be saved and reset at 12 midnight everyday.
You may check your previous day logs in the History tab via the Actxa app.

Sleep

How does Spur track my sleep quality?

Spur uses a built-in 3-axis accelerometer to track your sleep through movements.
The greater the amount of movements detected means the more restless your sleep is.
Your sleep duration should be at least 1 hour for the tracker to accurately depict your sleep quality.

To track your sleep automatically:
1. Launch the Actxa app.
2. Go to “Devices”.
3. Tap “Auto-Sleep”. Enable it.

Note: You do not have to tap “Log Sleep” and “I’m Awake” buttons.

6. You will be able to analyse your “Sleep Quality” for your previous sleep.

Note: Your steps, calories burned, active time and distance travelled during this period of time will not be recorded.

What does my Sleep Quality analysis mean?

Your Sleep Quality analysis report will be tabulated into easy-to-read graphs after you end your sleep.
An average adult is recommended to sleep for 7 to 9 hours.

You should be able to view the following statistics:
– Sleep Time and Awake Time
– Total Sleep Duration
– Time Taken To Sleep
– Sleep Efficiency
– Duration in the 3 different sleep states (Deep / Light / Restless)

Analyse your sleep quality to know how well you’ve slept or if you had sufficient rest.
Track your sleep regularly for a more consistent analysis.

Can Spur automatically track my sleep quality? If yes, how?

Yes, Spur is able to track your sleep automatically by detecting your movements with the built-in 3-axis accelerometer.

By analysing the duration and intensity of your movements, the tracker will be able to differentiate when you are sleeping and when you are awake.

If you keep still for long periods of time, it may be possible that the tracker will assume that you are asleep. You may go to the Sleep Summary page and swipe to delete the unwanted sleep record.

To track your sleep automatically:
1. Launch the Actxa app.
2. Go to “Devices”.
3. Tap “Auto-Sleep”. Enable it.
