Why isn't my watch updating its location?
On Android there is an app bug causing the latest location to not refresh in the app unless it is completely closed and reopened.
This will be the reason why you cannot see the latest location, as the app needs to be closed and reopened.
This bug is only present on Android phones and we hope this will be fixed within the next few weeks.
iPhones should not have this issue. If the device is not updating, please make sure it is in an area where it has a good cell signal and that the device has left the home area. This will be signified by the ‘wearer is at home’ banner disappearing.
If the device is indoors, the device should start updating once it goes outside, as GPS does not work when the device is indoors, due to obstructions to the satellite’s view.
What do the different color pins on the map mean?
Why am I getting gray pins that are very far away from the wearer?
Gray pins are inaccurate tracking pin when GPS is not available. They use cell networks to get a location as a backup (rather than no location at all when GPS is not available).
These can be ignored, unless if you’re looking for the user, in which case they will provide a rough location until a more accurate GPS location can be found.
Why is the time on my watch incorrect?
Sometimes when the watch is kept in a room with bright lights, or there is something obstructing the sensor on the watch, the time may not calibrate correctly, leading to it dragging or rushing.
If the time is wrong on the watch, you can calibrate it by going to Settings > Fix Watch Hands in the Tranquil App. It can also help to place it on the dock for 5-10 minutes.
We don’t recommend pressing the fix watch hands button often, as it can cause errors.

How do I check that the tracking is working?
To ensure the GPS is working correctly and to troubleshoot the tracking issue, please ensure the GPS Watch is fully charged and take it on a short walk (at least 15 mins).
The reason for this is it gives the GPS tracker ample opportunity to send information frequently and more accurately to the satellites and pinpoint the location of the tracker unobstructed by hard materials such as roofing and car metals
The reason that it needs to be 15 minutes is that the watch has a 5 minute exit timer, before it alerts you that you’ve left home.
How do I reboot the watch?
- Press and hold the crown button (on the side of the watch face) for 2 seconds.
- Whilst still holding the crown button, place the watch on the dock.
- Keep holding the crown button, and you’ll hear a loud beep.
- As soon as you hear the loud beep, release the crown button and the screen should turn off.
- Leave for a few seconds for the connection to re-establish.
When should I change the mini beacon battery?
The batteries in the mini beacon can last up to 24 months depending on the usage conditions.
To ensure continuity, we recommend changing them every 12 months.
How do I change the mini beacon battery?
The Mini Beacon requires a CR2477 battery. We recommend purchasing a reputable brand e.g. Panasonic.
Should I take the Mini Beacon with me when I travel?
Firstly, the mini beacon should be placed in the wearer’s home and should not be given to the wearer.
You do not need to take the mini beacon with you when you travel; however, it’s a good idea to bring it if you can. Taking the mini beacon with you can help extend the watch’s battery life and provide more reliable “left home” alerts.
It may also be helpful to place the mini beacon in an obvious spot in your accommodation, so you remember to take it back home with you.
We strongly recommend that you take at least the home beacon with you, as it allows you to charge the watch and ensures it remains ready for use throughout your travels.
