Resetting your TomTom Touch

Soft reset

A soft reset is performed each time you disconnect your TomTom Touch  from a wall charger or computer.

To perform a soft reset, follow these steps:

  1. Connect your fitness tracker to a wall charger or computer.
    Wait until your fitness tracker shows a battery symbol.
    If you are using a computer, wait until TomTom Sports Connect finishes updating your tracker.
  2. Disconnect your fitness tracker from the wall charger or computer.
    The software on your fitness tracker restarts. You have now completed a soft reset on your fitness tracker.

Factory reset

When you perform a factory reset in TomTom Sports Connect, all personal data and settings on your fitness tracker are deleted. This action cannot be undone.

You should only use a factory reset as a last resort to restore your fitness tracker or if you really want to remove all your data and settings.

A factory reset reinstalls the software on your fitness tracker and this removes the following:

  • Your activities.
  • Your settings on the tracker and in TomTom Sports Connect.

Note : If you are using the TomTom Sports mobile app, you may need to make your smartphone forget your fitness tracker and then pair it again as follows:

  • Android™
    In the Bluetooth® Settings menu of your Android™ device, un-pair or forget your fitness tracker.
  • iOS
    Go to the iOS Bluetooth® settings screen, click on the (i) icon behind the fitness tracker name and select Forget this Device .

Important: When you perform a factory reset, do not disconnect your fitness tracker before TomTom Sports Connect has finished restoring it. This may take several minutes. Check any messages shown in TomTom Sports Connect before disconnecting.
