Battery and Charging

  • Use USB-C.
  • Use a standard 5V power source.
  • Charge before long days if the battery is already low.
  • Charge before firmware updates if you are below 20%.

StepSprite treats these levels as meaningful:

  • low battery: around 20%
  • critical battery: around 10%

At that point, the right answer is usually simple: charge it.

Battery percentage is an estimate. That means:

  • a reading can still be useful even if it is not perfect
  • early units may read a little high or low
  • you should care more about trends than one exact number

Add a screenshot of the Device tab battery ring, charging state, and last update row.

This page works best when customers can compare their battery screen to a reference.

A low battery can make reconnect behavior worse.

If pairing or reconnect suddenly gets flaky:

  1. charge the device
  2. open the app near it
  3. try again after a few minutes

StepSprite supports:

  • Auto charging mode
  • Fast charging mode

Most customers should leave charging mode on Auto unless support tells them otherwise.

  • splash-resistant is not the same as waterproof
  • do not use non-standard chargers above 5V
  • do not crush, bend, or open the device
