Set Up

If you have a connection issue, please contact support via the Carv app so that we can check the health of your sensors. You will be required to record the following Diagnostic Session.

The blue flash occurs when the battery packs are still paired to your phone via Bluetooth. You can stop this by following these steps:

1. Navigate to the setup page within the Carv app.

2. Tap the gear icon and select it.

3. From there, you’ll find an option to put your battery packs into sleep mode.

Alternatively, you can stop the flashing by going into your phone's Bluetooth settings and disconnecting the battery packs from the list of connected devices.


Battery Packs

If you have issues with your Carv 1 battery packs, please look for your specific battery issue in our Battery Pack Troubleshooting article, and follow the suggested steps.

The human body can sometimes act as a source of interference for bluetooth signals. If your Battery Packs are frequently disconnecting from your phone, we recommend you try moving your phone to a different pocket so that it has a clear line of sight to the Battery Packs. For example, we suggest carrying your phone in a front chest pocket.

For help on how to fix this issue please see our Battery Pack Troubleshooting article
