That was a known defect for the V1/Kickstarter version. Support should have replaced it. Mine did it but I couldn't reliably reproduce it when support asked so I wrote it off. Haven't used another smartwatch since.

if you still have it. If you can crack it open, you can fix it by removing the zebra connector and spraying with a little contact cleaner on the contacts that connect to the zebra. had no problems since.

The charger and watch plug of my kickstarter version oxidized slightly few months ago, since then I am unable to charge it unfortunately. I was using it quite a lot
