**How do I pair my smartwatch to my phone?**

The PlayZoom Kids Smartwatch does not need a smart phone. Your kids can wear this right away without any smartwatch connection. Even without a phone, all of the watch's features are fully accessible! 

**How do I charge my watch?**

Plug the charging cable into the USB port on your computer or a UL-certified USB wall charger. **We recommend using the USB port on your computer.**

Attach the smartwatch to the appropriate charging cable section. A charging screen will appear, indicating that your smartwatch is charging.

**How long should I charge the watch to get a full battery?**

Your PlayZoom Kids Smartwatch takes about 1-2 hours to fully charge.

**How long will my watch stay charged after fully charging it?**

Battery life between charges depends on use of the watch. Like other electronic devices, more frequent usage will drain the battery quicker. Some activities will be more demanding on the battery, such as taking photos and videos.

To power on/off your PlayZoom Smartwatch, press and hold the home button at the side of the screen for a few seconds.

**How do I take a picture with my PlayZoom Kids Smartwatch?**

**Can I swim with my PlayZoom Kids Smartwatch?**

Do not put under running water or submerge in water as it is only splash resistant. The watch is not suitable for showering, bathing or swimming.

**How long can I wear my watch for?**

We recommend removing the watch from your wrist at least once per day to clean the straps.

**How do I clean the straps on my Smartwatch?**

We recommend cleaning 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 dry fully before putting it back on.
