Bluetooth Connectivty Question with 5

Former Member over 8 years ago

So been wearing the 5 sapphire since about 12pm yesterday it's now 6:45am. Fully updated and charged.

I am sitting at 94 percent battery after an hour work out with no GPS AND connected to Scosche Rythm HRM seems to be good battery to me so far

However just sitting on the couch last night with my iPhone 6 s plus on the counter in the kitchen my watch would display DISCONNECTED quite a few times. I have never seen that before. With my 3hr it never said that. Then when I went upstairs about 8 stairs or so to my second level it would disconnect. I am wondering if it's supposed to stay connected via Bluetooth at a longer range??? Not sure I am asking correctly.

sounds like you have enabled the connection alerts under 'Phone', just turn them off (which is the default I believe) and it will be just like your F3!

That's been bugging me tonight too. On my F3 I had Bluetooth mapped as a hotkey for a long press of START. Couldn't see it in the list of the F5. As you've pointed out it is called Phone now.
