Switching Between Timex Smart Devices - Timex Metropolitan R User Manual

Switching between Timex Smart devices

If you own multiple Timex Smart devices you can switch between devices without having to unpair and
repair. To do so, via Profile-My Devices select the device you wish to make active and click on "Activate
device". When you do so you will be notified that the presently active device will be stopped and then
once you tap OK the other device will be activated. Note that although workouts performed while a
device is not active will sync when the device is later activated, activity data (steps, distance, calories and
sleep) will not. This is to prevent duplication of data.
