To turn on a Q7 smartwatch, tap and hold the center of the watch screen for 3-5 seconds until it vibrates and shows the Q7 logo. This is the primary, documented method for powering on a standard Q7 smartwatch.
How to turn on a Q7 smartwatch
- If the watch does not respond, charge it first using the included charging cable.
- Wait for the watch to vibrate and display the Q7 logo.
The Q7 Smartwatch has a built-in camera for capturing photos and videos directly from the wrist. The Q7 Smartwatch supports Bluetooth technology for wireless pairing with a smartphone. The Q7 Smartwatch includes fitness-centric functions like a heart rate monitor, pedometer, sleep tracker, and sedentary reminder.
How to turn on a Q7+ smartwatch
The Q7+ model uses a different power-on method. To turn on a Q7+ smartwatch, press and hold the button on the right side for 5 seconds until the Q7+ logo appears.
What to do if your Q7 smartwatch won't turn on
If the screen does not light up, confirm the watch has enough charge by connecting it to the charger for at least 30 minutes. The manual includes a charging step before first use. Also verify you are using the correct method for your specific model: tap and hold the center of the screen for the standard Q7, or press and hold the right-side button for the Q7+. If you need to turn on a smart bracelet that uses the Q7 platform, the same screen-tap method applies. If the watch does not respond, try performing a reset by inserting a pin into the small reset button on the back of the smartwatch and holding it for a few seconds.
Setting up the wrist-raise gesture after powering on
Once the watch is on, you can enable the wrist-raise feature so the screen wakes automatically. Open the Q7 Smartwatch App, tap the Device icon, go to Additional Features, and enable Activate Display After Wrist Rotation. You can set the Active Time so the wrist-raise display function is active all day by setting both Start and End to 12:00AM.

What if it still does not turn on?
