Roam: turning itself on


Badge

Hey all

 

I got the Roam delivered on Monday, and have experienced some unusual behaviour, which I’ve summarised below:

Powered the Roam off (holding down the power button until the chime), put it on charge (wirelessly) and the Roam immediately turns back on.

So, I powered it down while it was sitting on the charger, which seemed to do the trick, and left it to charge. When I went back to check it a few hours later, it was switched on again!

 

So I guess my question is this… does the Roam turn on automatically when being charged wirelessly? If so is there a way to turn this feature off?

 

Thanks

Can you please clarify how to turn it temporarily off (or in sleep mode) and completely off? 

The documentation on this product is also pretty bad.

To put the Roam in sleep mode, press the button on the back of the Roam.

To shut off the Roam, press and hold the button for 5 seconds until you hear a chime.

Short press on power button for standby mode / wake on lan mode / waking up by opening the app. 
Hold power button for about 5 seconds (you can hear a third chime) for turning it off completely.
