Auto Re-connect

A flashing Bluetooth icon on the watch display indicates that it is in the process of automatically re-connecting with the iPhone.
In the cases described below, the watch will attempt to re-connect automatically every minute for one hour only. Attempts to re-connect will stop after that.

1.Auto connect following Link Loss

Connection is re-established automatically within about one minute if you move the watch closer to the iPhone after Link Loss (momentary loss of communication between the watch and phone).

2.Auto connect following recovery from Power Saving

If the watch is not moved for more than about two hours while it is linked with the iPhone, it will enter a Power Saving state (indicated by a flashing PS indicator). Moving the watch again while the iPhone is nearby will re-establish the connection between them within about one minute. Note that connection will not be re-established automatically if the PS indicator is not flashing on the watch display.
