Some Helpful Tips:
- For data to be saved, the workout/sport you do must be done actively for at least 3 minutes.

- Sports modes should be done one at a time. After stopping one mode, ensure that the data is synced to the app first. Then start your second sports mode. Doing multiple modes at once, with-out syncing to the app will cause data you have acquired to be lost.
- The watch will alert you if the activity time is too short to record. Activities not performed for at least 3 minutes will not be saved to the app/watch.
You can view all of the sports modes you have done for the day as well as the calories burned doing each activity within the Calories card found on the main home page of the iTouch Wearables App.

Wear And Care
All iTech Wearable products are meant to be worn all day and night, so it’s
important to follow a few simple guidelines as you wear and care for your
smartwatch.
To keep your band clean and your skin happy, we recommend the following tips:
- Clean your band and wrist regularly – especially after intense workouts or sweating.
- Rinse the band with water or wipe it with a small amount of rubbing alcohol. Do NOT use hand soap, dish soap, hand sanitizer, cleaning wipes or household cleaners, which could get trapped beneath the band and irritate your skin.
- Always pat dry the band before putting it back on.
Although the iTouch Explorer 3 Smartwatch is IP67 water resistant, it is not IP68 waterproof which means you should not submerge your smartwatch in water deeper than one meter for longer than 30 minutes. We advise not to swim with your smartwatch. However, your iTouch Explorer 3 Smartwatch can withstand many splashes, rain, and daily activities such as washing dishes. If your smartwatch gets wet, we advise you to remove it until dry. It is not good for your skin to wear a wet band for long periods of time.
