My Glowlight+ started jumping back to the Home Page a lot last night. (Was definitely at a higher irritation level than a mere nuisance.) And I have a new theory as to why. I think it has something to do with the battery charge level. It seems to start happening when my battery shows less than 50% charge. Once I plugged in to power the jump back to Home Page stopped. I have it fully charged now and haven't noticed the issue. There's a message when it does this, but it flashes off so quickly I can never read it. I may have to replace the battery. It seems to take a good charge but I've got a feeling it's not putting out a high enough voltage at a lower charge level.

Anyone have this issue with one of these Glowlight+s (2015 version)?

EDIT: Not the battery. Reboot has "fixed" it again.
