What do I do if the Gsmart does not appear to be working?
1. Make sure that your app is the latest version. To check this go to Play Store and search for Gsmart and update if it is possible. You can also enable auto-update
for Gsmart through the Play Store menu to receive the latest version when released.
2. Upgrade your chair's firmware when it is notified by the app. A new firmware for Gsmart might be published and bundled with the app. It is strongly recommended to accept Upgrade Warning if you see it.
3. Be sure that you are on the right chair. You can see the signal strength through the scanner radar by tapping on "Pick Form List" button in QR scanner window. If there is more than one chair in list of chairs, search for the strongest signal when you put your phone on the seat. The chair with the blue icon is your recent chair and must be the strongest one.

5. If resetting didn't help, put the chair on a table in upside down position and open the Gsmart black box to replace the batteries. Two alkaline 1.5 Volts AAA batteries are needed.

I don't get notification sometimes and I have to run Gsmart again. Why doesn't Gsmart keep running in background?
It seems your phone has killed the background process due to battery optimisation. Some phones like Samsung have strict
rules for that reason and you should exclude Gsmart from list of the battery consuming apps. You can get more information from www.dontkillmyapp.com.
