Note: Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life.

You must have a working GPS signal, open sky, for Speedster to work properly.

Built-in battery saving techniques:
- This app must use GPS to track speeds. The phone GPS will not shut off unless you press “Disconnect from Pebble”
- Another way to save on the battery is to not press “PREVENT SLEEPING."
If the light is red on this button then the “PREVENT SLEEPING” function is not turned on.
If this function is turned on it will drain more battery power.
