Troubleshooting
My Petal isn't connecting or my device is not found, what should I do?
-
Make sure your Petal is charged. If actively charging, the light will stay green and turn off when fully charged.
-
Check and reset the Bluetooth® permissions for the Petal app:
(System Settings > Apps > Petal Wellness) -
Toggle Bluetooth® off and back on:
(System Settings > Bluetooth®) -
After that, please check the state of the Bluetooth® connection on Petal by pressing the button twice. The LED will blink red if it has established a Bluetooth® connection with your phone.
If you're still having trouble, follow these next steps to reset Bluetooth® pairing:
-
Connect Petal to the charging cable to reboot it.
-
The LED will quickly turn green, turn off, and turn green again.
-
Disconnect Petal from the charging cable.
-
Within 30 seconds, quickly press the button twice.
-
The LED will blink blue, then turn off — the device Bluetooth pairing is now cleared, and Petal is ready to pair again.
-
Go into the Petal app and see if your device can be found and paired.
Note: If you press the button twice after the 30-second window has ended (or if there was no existing pairing to clear), the LED will instead blink red for 5 seconds, then turn off. This means the action was denied and nothing was changed. Disconnect Petal from the charger again and repeat steps 3 - 4.
How do I check if Petal is already paired?
Press the button once and the status LED will blink.
Blinking blue — Petal is not currently bonded to any phone (ready to pair).
Blinking white — Petal already has an active Bluetooth bond.
