FAQ

Is the inPulse a BlackBerry on your wrist? No. Sorry to disappoint, but this is not a full BlackBerry watch. inPulse is a BlackBerry smartphone accessory, you must already own a BlackBerry to make full use of the product. inPulse allows you to view key information from your BlackBerry on your wrist.

Does inPulse actually work like a watch? Yes! It's actually one of the most user friendly watches you could get. Instead of fiddling with tiny buttons on your watch, you're free to set the clock, alarms, and more all from the comfort of the large keyboard and screen on your BlackBerry.

Technical

How do I recharge my inPulse? inPulse charges via a built-in micro-USB jack. If you have a fairly new BlackBerry smartphone (such as a BlackBerry Storm, Tour, 8520, 8900, Bold 9700 or Torch) then inPulse can be charged using the same charger as your BlackBerry. A micro-USB cable is also included.

Do I need to download a BlackBerry application? Yes. inPulse requires a special BlackBerry application to keep track of your recently received messages. Our easy-to-use application is straight forward to install, runs in the background and offers you the ability to customize your inPulse smartwatch.

Is inPulse waterproof? inPulse has been designed to withstand mild splashes (from washing hands, rain, etc) but has not yet been rated against any waterproof or water-resistant standards.

Do I need a data plan? Nope! inPulse will still be able to connect to your BlackBerry and receive caller ID and recently received text message (SMS) information. It will still function as a really cool watch! If you've already have a data plan for your BlackBerry, then inPulse will automatically intercept and display email messages.

Can I send messages from my inPulse? inPulse is simply a display-only accessory. In the future, other functionality may be added. Feel free to send us ideas for new features, if you'd like!

Can I use any BlackBerry model? Our BlackBerry application supports all current BlackBerry models, as well as any BlackBerry smartphone with OS 4.3 and above.
