4. "Sleeping Begins" and "Sleeping Ends" cannot be the same hour, but can be 1 hour apart from each other, either before or after the other.
5. All modes when not **Disabled** will use the "Screen Auto-Off" delay after any button press.
6. While the screen is off, any button press will just turn it on for the duration set in "Screen Auto-Off", a second press is needed to use the Watchy as normal.
7. If Turbo Time is set longer than "Screen Auto-Off", Turbo Time will still be active and buttons will react as normal with respect to screen blanking.
7. If Turbo Time is set longer than "Screen Auto-Off", Turbo Time will still be active and buttons will react as normal with respect to Screen Blanking.
8. "Double Tap On" will allow buttons to turn the screen on or a double tap on the device.
9. "Double Tap Only" will only allow a double tap to turn the screen on, only then will buttons work. "Screen Auto-Off" will default to 2 seconds if off.

[^2]: "Always" mode is used during non-RTC mode, with the exception that menus are ignored (acting like "Bed Time" mode).
[^3]: "Battery Saving" is forced on when using non-RTC mode.
[^4]: Disabling Non-Volatile Storage will ask for you to select you want to proceed, if you proceed the NVS will have the settings removed, Watchy will reboot and will continue to not store any settings in the NVS.
[^5]: With the invention of SmallRTC's atMinuteWake, Bed Time now uses atMinuteWake for on the hour (0) and 30 minutes past the hour, do not place alarms inside Bed Time hours unless they are on the hour (0) or 30 minutes past the hour. If you don't adhere to this, the alarm will *not* fire for that day. Move the Bed Time period away from any alarms to ensure they'll work.
[^5]: With the invention of SmallRTC's atMinuteWake, all Screen Blanking will now use atMinuteWake for on the hour (0 minute) and 30 minutes past the hour, Alarms will now *WORK* in all Screen Blanking modes and will properly fire. The only change is, the Countdown Timer will *NOT* allow the atMinuteWake to happen, but normal nextMinuteWakes until it finishes. SmallRTC's atMinuteWake will cause the Watchy to only wake 2 (plus Alarms) times an hour, massively reducing battery usage.
[^6]: Double Tap works while in Bed Time, as do the buttons.
