When the ring screen shows icons or animations instead of the usual battery percentage, here’s what each indicator means:
⚡ Lightning Icon
If you see a lightning icon, this indicates that:
➡️ Your ring is currently charging.
This is normal behavior while the ring is placed on the charger.
🔋 Battery Icon
If you see a battery icon, this means:
➡️ Your ring is very low on battery and needs to be charged.
Place it on the charger as soon as possible to avoid shutdown.
🌀 Rotating Animation
If you see a rotating animation, this indicates that:
➡️ The app is searching for your ring and has not connected yet.
This is completely normal during the first 5 seconds after opening the app.
