Charging

The supplied charge cable connects to a USB port to charge Bangle.js (there is no data connection, it is power only).

You must connect the cable the right way around or it won't work: With Bangle.js facing away from you (so you're looking at the shiny back) and the CE Rohs text the right way up, the USB cable should exit from the left side of the watch.

The cable is magnetic and the wires are connected directly to USB power. Do not leave your cable plugged in or it might attract itself to the nearest magnetic (probably conductive) object and short out.

This means that when idle (in the normal power-on state) you can expect around 30-90 days of battery life depending on whether Bangle.js is moved or not.

Note: These figures are based on the latest Bangle.js firmware. Earlier firmware has slightly higher power consumption figures.

Apps

Because Bangle.js is entirely open, you can upload the apps we’ve already developed, create your own, or upload apps created by the online community.

The app store (at banglejs.com/apps) will be entirely free. We’ll never share your data with third parties or make your use of our apps dependent on third-party cloud services. So far we’ve created some great apps including games, a compass, map, spirit level, QR code display and heart rate monitor (to name a few) and we have lots more to come.
