No explanations.
ya. I just had to reset it because it would lock up in the middle of the ride. but the message about saving battery life still stays up the whole ride unless we stop and I house it. kt literally kills the battery telling me to save the battery. it even popped up if I had all notifications turned off. but I do like the touch screen over buttons any day.
