Applies to: Polar Loop
You can adjust the settings of your Polar Loop via the device settings in the Flow app.

On the device page, you can edit the following settings:
I wear my product on
Choose Left hand or Right hand.
For accurate measurement and tracking, it’s important that the device is positioned correctly on your wrist: the side with the oval mark should face the thumb side of your wrist. For detailed instructions, see How do I wear my Polar Loop?
Battery notifications
If you want to receive notifications on your phone about the device's battery status, turn on the Battery notifications. To get battery notifications, you need to allow notifications for the Flow app in your phone settings, and the app must be running at least in the background.
Inactivity alert
Turn inactivity alerts on or off. To receive inactivity alerts, you must allow notifications for the Flow app in your phone settings, and the app must be running at least in the background. For more information, see 24/7 Activity tracking in the user manual.
Track training automatically
Turn automatic training detection on or off and adjust its sensitivity. For more information, see Automatic training detection.
Sync
Choose Sync to manually sync your device with the Flow app. For more information, see How do I sync my Polar Loop with the Polar Flow app?
Turn off
You can turn off the device through the Flow app's settings, for example during a flight. When the device is turned off, Bluetooth is also disabled. To turn the device back on, plug it in to charge.
Factory reset
If you experience problems with your device, you can reset it back to factory settings. Note that resetting the device back to factory settings empties all personal data and settings from the device, and you will need to set it up again for your personal use. All data that you have synced from your device to your Flow account is safe. For more information, see How do I reset my Polar Loop?
If you want to make changes to your physical settings, tap your profile picture in the Flow app to access them.
