| How to Wash Technical Clothing Posted: 24 Jan 2021 12:00 AM PST Ski jackets, heavy coats, winter pants, and waterproof outerwear are made to be durable, but that doesn't mean you shouldn't wash them from time to time. For heavy coats and jackets, once a year will do (or whenever you notice they smell or are visibly dirty). However, sportswear should be washed once you've sweated in them. The care instructions on the tags of your clothes will clue you in on how exactly you should wash the garment, so pay close attention to those details. [Edit]Using a Washing Machine - Read the care instructions on the tag of the garment. The garment's manufacturer knows what's best for the fabric, so refer to the care instructions for the best advice. Most technical clothing can be washed in the washing machine as long as you don't use regular detergent or fabric softeners—a specialty outerwear detergent is best.[1]
- For dark-colored clothing, check the tag to see if you should wash it inside out to keep the color from fading.
- You shouldn't wash down jackets in a top-loading machine because the garment could snag and tear on the center agitator during the spin cycle.
- Note any icons on the tag: an image of a hand reaching into a bucket of water means hand-washing is recommended. Two dots mean warm water while 3 mean hot water. A small icon of a dryer (a square with a circle inside it) with an "x" through it means you shouldn't tumble-dry the garment.
- Run your washing machine on an empty cycle to clean it. Residue from fabric softeners or biological detergents can damage the fibers and coating on your outerwear, especially if it has a DWR (durable water repellent) coating. To prevent doing damage, run the rinse cycle with hot water to wash away any residue in the drum.[2]
- If your washing machine has a detergent tray, make sure it's clean and free of any liquid or powder detergent residue.
- Empty all the pockets and close all the zippers and flaps. Check all the pockets to make sure you're not accidentally washing other items along with your clothing (like snack crumbs). Zip up all the zippers and close all the flaps on the garment to help them keep their shape.[3]
- If necessary, brush away any visible debris from the garment like stuck-on leaves, sand, and dirt.
- If your jacket has detachable pieces made of different materials like fur, remove those before washing it. You'll need to clean fur attachments separately.[4]
- Pre-treat any stains or soiled areas with specialty detergent. Rub a little of the detergent you'll be using to wash the garment onto the stain. This should be specialty detergent made for outerwear—do not use regular detergent or fabric softeners. Let it sit for 10 to 15 minutes before rinsing the area with warm water and gently rubbing it with a damp cloth.[5]
- Don't the same spot-treating formulas you would use on regular clothing because the chemicals may cause discoloration or damage the fibers.
- Place a maximum of 2 large or bulky garments into the machine. If you're washing an extra-bulky outerwear jacket, wash it by itself to ensure the detergent and water can fully penetrate the clothing fibers. Smaller, thinner garments like base layers and thermal underwear can be washed in larger batches—just make sure the machine fills with enough water to cover all of the items.[6]
- If you're using a compact washing machine (or any type that's smaller than full-sized), only wash 1 garment at a time.
- Pour 1 to 2 capfuls of specialty detergent into the machine's detergent drawer. If you're washing 1 item, use 1 capful of specialty outerwear detergent or cleaner. For 2 items or 1 heavily soiled item, use 2 capfuls. If your machine doesn't have a detergent drawer, pour the solution directly into the drum with the garment and water.[7]
- Check the manufacturer's recommendations about which specialty detergent to use.
- You can buy detergent made for outerwear at most camping and outdoor gear superstores.
- If you plan to reproof the clothing later, consider using a 2-in-1 solution that will both wash and reproof your outerwear to save time and water.[8]
- Set the washer to a regular cycle wash using warm water. A water temperature of around 86°F (30°C) will clean the garment without compromising the material. Avoid using hot water because it can cause the sealant tape around pockets and seams to melt, decreasing the garment's longevity.[9]
- If your dryer has a spin option, select the low spin option.[10]
- Do an extra rinse cycle to ensure the garment is free of detergent. Set your washing machine to do an extra rinse to make sure all the detergent is out of the garment. Don't reset the water temperature for the rinse—leave it on the warm setting.[11]
- You can also fill a large tub with water and rinse it that way, submerging the garment gently pressing out any remaining soapy water.
- Dry the garment according to the care instructions. Some garments can be tumble dried while others can be laid flat or hung up to dry. Read the care instructions on the label or, if the label has worn off, look up the care instructions from the manufacturer's website. If it can go in the dryer, use a low heat setting to avoid damaging the fibers.[12]
- Some heavy-duty jackets with waterproof coating should be hang dried until just damp and then put in the dryer on low heat for 20 minutes to reactivate the coating.
[Edit]Handwashing Down Jackets and Outerwear - Fill a tub or sink with warm water and a capful of specialty detergent. Fill the vessel with enough water to cover the entire article of clothing. For instance, you'll need at least of water to completely submerge a puffer jacket. Pour in 1 capful of specialty outerwear detergent for 1 garment.[13]
- If you need to wash 2 garments, wash them one at a time.
- Place the garment in the water and push it down, flipping it as you push. Use your hands to push the garment underwater section by section until it's fully submerged. Work in the suds with your hands as you push the jacket down.[14]
- Make sure you've pressed the garment down from the front and back so the soapy water has worked its way through the whole thing.
- Let the garment soak for 30 minutes or longer. Allowing the garment to sit in the water will ensure the detergent reaches as many fibers as possible.[15] Leave extra-soiled garments soaking for up to 60 minutes.[16]
- If the inside of the garment is particularly smelly or soiled, turn it inside out before you let it soak.
- Drain the tub or sink while pressing water out of the garment. Lift the stopper on your tub or sink so the soapy water drains away. Press down on the garment with your hands to expel as much of the soapy water as possible.[17]
- If you have one handy, use a large slotted laundry basket as a strainer.
- Rinse the garment with clean warm water 4 to 6 times. Refill the tub or sink with warm water and drain it again, pressing the water out in the process. You may need to repeat this up to 6 times or until the water runs clear.[18]
- Don't twist or wring the garment because it could tear the fabric or distort the shape of the stuffing inside.
- Transfer the jacket to a dryer or hanger according to the care instructions. Check the care instructions on the label to see whether it's best to tumble dry or hang dry it. Be careful carrying the garment if it's made of down because the water will make it super heavy—cradle the entire jacket so the weight doesn't stretch or tear the fabric.[19]
- If the jacket is made of down, avoid air-drying it because it can take a long time and result in mold and mildew.
[Edit]Tumble-Drying Down Jackets - Place the garment in the tumble dryer on low for 20 minutes, if possible. If the care instructions suggest tumble-drying, put the garment in the dryer. Stay nearby because you'll need to stay nearby to take the garment out and shape it every 20 minutes.[20]
- Put 4 tennis balls into the dryer—these will help heavy down jackets keep their puffiness.
- Remove the garment from the dryer and break up any internal clumps. Take the garment out of the dryer and use your hands to fluff up the material, breaking up any clumps that may have formed inside of it. This is especially important for down jackets because clumping can change the structure of the jacket.[21]
- Make sure to cover the entire garment, concentrating on any creases where inside material may have bunched up.
- Repeat the drying and fluffing process at least 4 times until it's dry. Puffy jackets and outerwear are thick, so they'll take much longer to dry than normal clothing items. You may need to repeat the drying-and-fluffing process 4 to 6 times until the garment is fully dry.[22]
- The entire washing and drying process can take 3 to 4 hours total, so be patient.
[Edit]Cleaning Athletic Wear - Wash smelly gym clothes right away. Don't toss your worn, stinky items in a hamper until laundry day because it'll make them smell worse and cause nearby clothing to stink as well. It may even lead to mold and mildew, which smells even worse![23]
- If you can't wash them right away or would rather wait until you have a full load of stinky workout gear, turn them inside out and put them on hangers. Hang the hangers outside or somewhere in your bathroom until the sweat is dry. Then you can toss them in your hamper until laundry day.
- Pre-soak extra-stinky workout clothes in vinegar for 30 minutes. Fill a large bowl or sink with 1 part vinegar and 5 parts water. For instance, if you're using a bowl that holds of water, pour in of white vinegar. Let them soak for 30 minutes.[24]
- Note that you'll need to transfer the clothes into the washing machine after soaking, so make sure the machine is empty and ready to go.
- Feel free to skip this step if your athletic clothes aren't super soiled. You can always add vinegar to the rinse cycle later on.[25]
- Set your washing machine to cold or warm water. Hot water may seem like the best option for cleaning sweaty clothes, but most active wear requires cold water due to the fabrics. Some garments made of cotton blends can be washed in warm water, but it's best to use cold if you're washing a load of workout clothes made from different materials.[26]
- Spandex, polyester, rayon, linen shouldn't be washed in hot (and sometimes warm) water because it can break down the fibers or shrink the garment.
- Fill the detergent tray with regular detergent free of bleach or softeners. Choose a detergent that doesn't have fabric softeners already in the formula because they'll lock in the smell and leave a residue on the clothing. If your washing machine doesn't have a tray, pour the detergent into the drum along with the clothes.[27]
- If you chose not to do a vinegar pre-soak, add some in during the rinse cycle for extra stink-cleaning power.
- Dry athletic wear in a tumble dryer on low or no heat if possible. Refer to the care instructions to see if you can tumble dry your workout gear. If so, set your dryer to the low heat or no heat setting.[28]
- Use dryer balls to prevent static cling.
- Hang dry athletic wear on a rack, hanger, or line. Reshape the clothing and hang it on a hanger or drying rack to dry. Place the hanger or rack in a well-ventilated area to prevent dampening the air in the room. If possible, hang the clothes outside because the sun will help prevent the growth of bacteria within the clothing fibers.[29]
- Thin workout clothes may only take 3 to 4 hours to fully dry.
- Heavier workout clothes intended for cold weather may take up to 1 or 2 days to fully hang-dry.
[Edit]Reproofing Waterproof Outerwear - Spray the entire surface of the dry garment with reproofing spray. Hang the jacket on a hanger or clothesline and hold the spray bottle or canister to away. Spray the entire outer surface of the garment evenly.[30]
- Always reproof a garment after you clean it; don't reproof dirty outerwear.[31]
- Wipe away any excess proofing solution with a damp cloth. Wiping the excess away will prevent any residue marks on the garment. It's also necessary to wipe away as much as you can before adding a second layer of proofing spray if you choose to do so.[32]
- A slightly damp rag or paper towel will do the trick.
- Apply a second layer of proofer to high-contact areas. Areas that are exposed to the elements the most can benefit from a second proofing layer. For jackets, this is the shoulders and elbow areas. For pants, the knees and butt area can benefit from a second proofing layer.[33]
- Depending on what you'll be doing in the garment you may want to double-spray other areas like the chest or back as well.
- If your garment's waterproof layer has completely faded, go ahead and spray the entire jacket a second time.
- Reshape the garment and let it air dry for air-cured proofers. Check the care instructions on the proofing spray to see if it's air-cured or heat-activated. If it's air-cured, hang the item up to dry or lay it flat—refer to the care instructions on the label.[34]
- If you're hanging the garment, hang it outside or in a well-ventilated area.
- Tumble-dry the garment on low heat for 20 minutes for heat-activated proofer. Check the instructions on the proofing spray to see if it's heat-activated. If so, set your dryer to low heat and let it dry for 15 minutes (or however long the instructions suggest).[35]
- Toss 4 tennis balls into your dryer along with a down jacket to help the material stay fluffy.[36]
- Too much heat can damage the seams around pockets and zippers, so be sure to use low heat.
- Only dry 1 garment at a time to minimize the drying time.
- If the jacket is made of down, give it a shake and massage the jacket to redistribute the feathers.[37]
- For a heavily soiled garment, stop the wash halfway and let it soak for 20 to 30 minutes.
- If you don't have access to a dryer, check the label to see if you can iron the garment with a towel placed between the iron and the garment.[38]
- You can also use a hairdryer to "set" heat-activated proofing spray.[39]
- If you don't have any dryer balls, ball up some aluminum foil and toss it into the dryer with your clothes.
[Edit]Warnings - Don't take down products to a dry cleaner's because the chemicals used to dry clean normal clothes can damage the material.[40]
- Never use a top-loading washing machine to clean down jackets because it could tear the fabric during even a gentle spin cycle.[41]

| How to Get Rid of Poison Oak Rash Posted: 23 Jan 2021 04:00 PM PST Dealing with a poison oak rash can be annoying, but there are plenty of ways to relieve your symptoms. The rash is caused by urushiol, an oil that naturally covers the surface of the plant. Since poison ivy contains the exact same oil, exposures to either plant can be treated nearly the same exact way.[1] The rash itself appears 12-48 hours after exposure and typically lasts for 2-3 weeks before going away on its own. While you can usually treat a poison oak rash at home, you may need to see a doctor if the rash spreads after it first appears, begins swelling, or oozes pus. [Edit]Handling the Initial Exposure - Avoid touching anything so you don't spread the oil. Poison oak is not contagious unless you still have urushiol on your skin, so you can touch people or objects until you wash your skin off thoroughly. Until then, keep the skin exposed and do not scratch or itch the area.[2]
- Your skin may begin itching pretty quickly. Do everything in your power to avoid itching your skin. This is the main way that poison oak rashes tend to spread.
- Rinse off your skin with soap and water to remove the plant oil. Do this within 30 minutes of your first exposure to prevent a rash from developing or spreading. Clean the skin with a sponge or cloth to keep it from spreading to your hands. Thoroughly scrub the skin with a liberal amount of soap to rinse the urushiol off.[3]
- If you are still in the woods away from a bathroom, look for a nearby stream and rinse your skin. This will get rid of the residue left of your skin, which will help reduce irritation quickly. If you have a water bottle, pour it directly on to the skin.
- The only exception is for soaps that are oil-based. Specialty skincare products with coconut oil or olive oil in them may actually spread the urushiol around.[4]
- Change your clothes because they may be contaminated. Urushiol can spread from your skin to your clothes, which can distribute the rash over other parts of your body. To prevent this, remove any clothes you're wearing as soon as you reasonably can. Wash your clothes immediately in a washing machine using a standard laundry detergent to remove the urushiol.[5]
- In addition to your clothes, be sure to wash off any tools or objects that might have come into contact with the plant or your skin after you were exposed. Use a liberal amount of oil-free dish soap and a sponge or cloth to thoroughly clean any items that touched the poison oak.[6]
- If you don't have soap around, even rinsing the clothing or other objects off in water may help remove some of the oily residue.
- Feel free to touch the affected area once you wash your skin. You can transfer the rash across your body if you scratch or touch the rash on your skin without washing. Once the urushiol is washed off though, you are no longer in jeopardy of spreading the rash any further. You can begin treating the skin directly and touching the area without putting yourself at risk. Don't overdo the scratching though, since this can damage your skin.[7]
- Although you cannot make the rash spread after you get the urushiol off your skin, you can irritate the rash and cause skin damage by scratching or itching.
[Edit]Caring for Your Rash - Keep the skin uncovered for the next few days and wait for the rash. How a poison oak rash develops depends on how much you got on your skin and how allergic you are to urushiol. The rash typically develops 12 to 48 hours after exposure, but keeping the skin uncovered may reduce your symptoms by keeping your skin free from irritation. Once the rash appears, you can begin caring for it.[8]
- If you don't get a rash at all, you're in luck. You're probably immune to poison oak! Roughly 1 in 4 people have no reaction to urushiol.[9]
- Use calamine or hydrocortisone cream to relieve the itching. Calamine lotion is a great over the counter anti-itch cream that will help soothe your skin. Hydrocortisone cream will work as well. Apply the lotion directly to your rash, using enough to cover the whole area. The rash will typically go away on its own, but a soothing cream will relieve your symptoms while you wait.[10]
- There are specialty poison oak and poison ivy soaps and creams, but there's no evidence that they're more effective than standard calamine or hydrocortisone cream.
- Excessive itching may make your rash worse and keep your skin from healing. If you can handle the itching, your skin should heal just fine on its own.
- Soak in an oatmeal bath for 30 minutes to relieve itching. Pick up some colloidal oatmeal from a drug store, beauty supply store, or pharmacy. Pour 1-2 cups (90-180 g) of the oats into running warm water as you're filling the tub. Once the tub fills, soak your whole body for a replenishing bath or submerge the affected area to relieve your symptoms. Leave the rash under the water for at least 30 minutes before drying off.[11]
- You cannot use standard oatmeal that you find in a grocery store for a real oatmeal bath.
- Colloidal oatmeal contains a cleansing agent called saponin that is commonly found in vegetables. It acts as a natural barrier and moisturizes your skin.
- Lay a cold compress over your rash for pain and inflammation. Since the rash causes skin irritation, a cold compress will help relieve the pain. You can use a regular cold compress, or soak a clean, soft washcloth or towel in cool water. Place the cold item on your skin for 20 minutes before taking a 15-20 minute break. Repeat as needed until your inflammation and pain goes down.[12]
- Use aloe vera to get some cooling relief and restore your skin. Aloe vera is a great natural option if you're struggling with itchiness and like the minty aroma of aloe vera. Squirt a dollop of aloe vera directly into your hand and rub it gently into your skin. The aloe vera will cool the rash and may speed up the healing process a little for your skin.[13]
- Some people really dislike the feeling of aloe vera. The mentholated sensation can be a little painful for some people. If you've never used aloe vera before, try spot testing it in a rash-free area first to see if you like it.
- Avoid using rubbing alcohol on a poison oak rash. Conventional wisdom is that rubbing alcohol will sterilize your skin and kill the remaining poison oak residue. While this is a popular solution for poison oak, there's no scientific evidence that it's safe or effective to do this. You're better off sticking with less aggressive treatment options.[14]
[Edit]When to Seek Medical Care - See a doctor to get a prednisone prescription to clear the rash up. While you can usually handle a poison oak rash at home, you may need to get a prescription for prednisone from a doctor if it just won't go away after a few weeks. Take the medication as directed to clear your rash up.[15]
- Prednisone is a steroid and it's typically pretty good at clearing the rash up in 3-4 days. For severe rashes, you may need to take it for up to 15 days.
- Get immediate medical care if you have a severe reaction. While it's very rare, it's possible to have a severe allergic reaction to poison oak. If this happens, you need to get treated as soon as possible so you can get better. Call emergency services or go to an urgent care clinic.[16]
- If you've just been exposed, don't worry. Severe reactions to poison oak are pretty rare. Most people just get the moderately-obnoxious rash and the odds are good that you'll be fine.
- See your doctor if your rash is large or on a sensitive area. Most poison oak rashes don't require medical treatment. However, you may need medical treatment if you have have a widespread rash or a rash on a sensitive area. This will help your rash heal faster and will help relieve your discomfort.[17]
- A rash is considered large if it covers a quarter of your body or more.
- Sensitive areas include your face, lips, eyes, and genitals.
- Talk to your doctor if your rash doesn't improve after 1-2 weeks. It's normal for a poison oak rash to last for 1-3 weeks. If it's very severe, it may last as long as 30 days. However, it should start to improve with home care after a week or so. If it doesn't get better with treatment, call your doctor.[18]
- You may need additional treatment to help your rash heal. Your doctor can advise you about your treatment options. The odds are they'll prescribe a steroid to help your body fight the rash off.
- Visit your doctor if you develop the symptoms of an infection. While it's not common, a poison oak rash can get infected. This is more likely to happen if you've been scratching your rash. If you notice signs of an infection, see your doctor immediately.[19]
- Common signs of an infection include fever, pus, tenderness, and odor coming from your blisters.
- Seek emergency care if you breathe in poison oak smoke. While you don't need to worry, poison oak can sneak inside of the lungs if there's a forest fire or controlled burning and you inhale the fumes. After breathing the smoke, you may have difficulty breathing or may experience a severe sore throat. To help you recover, visit an urgent care center or emergency room for treatment.[20]
- Let the doctor know that you breathed in poison oak smoke.
- You can treat poison ivy and poison oak rashes the exact same way.
- There are only two species of poison oak: Pacific poison oak and Atlantic poison oak. Pacific poison oak is only found along the West Coast of the United States, Canada, and Baja California. Atlantic poison oak is only found in the southeastern United States. If you develop a rash or itch and you weren't out in one of these areas, you were probably exposed to poison ivy.[21]
- Poison oak generally grows in open spaces as a small shrub or in forest areas as a climbing vine. Its leaves are wavy or scalloped and glossy, and they always have 3 leaves on each stem, which is a dead giveaway. The leaves are typically green but can also be tinted yellow, red, or brown. Additionally, poison oak may have yellowish-green flowers or light green berries.[22]

| How to Beat Candy Crush Without Paying Anything Posted: 23 Jan 2021 08:00 AM PST Candy Crush can be a lot of fun. It can even be a bit addicting. While the game is free to download and play, it does allow you to purchase gold bars with real money that you can use to buy power-ups and extra lives to help you beat the more difficult levels. If you want to play without paying, you'll need to wait to earn more lives when they run out, or you could purchase more lives with gold bars. You can also earn power-ups to help you beat the more difficult levels. This wikiHow teaches you how to be Candy Crush levels for free. [Edit]Replenishing Lives - View lives. You are allotted only five lives maximum at a time. The number of remaining lives is displayed on the upper-left side of the game's main screen inside the icon that resembles a heart. A countdown timer from 30 minutes is displayed beside it that gives you an idea of how much time is left before another life is added.
- Wait 30 minutes. It takes 30 minutes to replenish one life. If you've already consumed all your five lives in one go, you have to wait at least 30 minutes to get back one life. Better yet, leave the game alone for at least two and a half hours to get a full set of five lives.
- Ask friends. Candy Crush can be integrated with your Facebook account. It's not needed to play it, but it will make the whole playing experience easier and better. If you're running out of lives and would like to keep playing, you can ask a Facebook friend who plays the game as well. Giving a friend a life to a friend is free.
- Tap the icon that resembles a heart. A window will appear with the remaining time until a next life is generated. Below it is the "Ask friends" banner with the Facebook logo.
- Tap on this banner to ask some Facebook friends for lives.
- Tap the "Ask friends" button on the next window, and your list of friends will be displayed. Simply tap the plus sign beside each one to request lives. A friend can only give a life to you once a day, so make it count.
- Tap the Send button once done to send the requests.
- Give lives to friends. A little quid pro quo can extend your playing time. Every now and then, give lives to your friends. They may remember you when it's their turn to give away lives. You'd be surprised how many do give back.
[Edit]Getting Free Daily Boosters - Open the Daily Booster Wheel. Candy Crush gives away a free booster daily. All you have to do is turn the wheel. On the game's main screen, right below the number of lives, is a bubble with part of a wheel. Tap on this to bring out the Daily Booster Wheel.
- Stop the wheel. If you haven't played today, the wheel will be turning. Tap the "Stop" button underneath it to have the wheel stop turning. The turning will slow down until it stops fully.
- Claim the prize. Wherever the arrow points to when the wheel stops represents the booster you've won for the day. Each day's a winner, so you don't have to worry. Tap the "Claim prize" button to collect the booster.
- The free booster will vary.
- Use boosters. Right before you start a game level, you have an option to equip some boosters applicable to the game. These boosters will be displayed on top of the "Play" button. Tap the ones you'd like to use within the level.
- The number of available boosters per type is clearly displayed.
- Some boosters can be equipped within the level itself. These types of boosters can be accessed by tapping the appropriate icons on the upper-left portion of the game screen.
- These free boosters are limited, so use them wisely.
[Edit]Unlocking More Levels - Ask friends. Once you've reached the next set of locked levels, you cannot proceed without getting the required tickets. You can get these by asking friends to help you. All you need are three tickets from three friends.
- Tap the "Ask friends" button when faced with locked levels, and then select from the list of friends.
- Tap the "Send" button once done to send the requests.
- You don't have to limit your requests to just three friends, you can send to as many as you want. This will likely get you the needed tickets faster.
- View ticket status. After you've sent your requests, you can view how many tickets you've received and from whom by tapping the train icon, which serves as the gate for the next levels.
- Continue to the next levels. Once all the tickets have been received, the next levels will be unlocked and you will be brought to the next one. Keep on playing.
- Repeat the steps to unlocking levels when you've reached the next locked gate.
[Edit]Setting the Time to Get More Lives - Open the Settings menu on your phone. If you run out of lives and you want to keep playing, you can trick the game into giving you more lives by setting the time on your phone. To do so, open the Settings menu on your phone. On Android, it's an icon that resembles a gear. On iPhone, it's an icon that resembles two gears.
- Tap the Search icon. Since the Settings menu is different from one phone model to the next, the easiest way to find the Date and Time settings is to use the Search function. It's the icon that resembles a magnifying glass. On Android, it's in the upper-right corner of the Settings menu. On iPhone, it's the search bar at the top of the Settings menu.
- Type in the search bar. This searches for the Date and Time menu in the Settings menu.
- Tap or similar. This menu may be labeled differently depending on your phone model. Tap the option that allows you to change the date and time on your phone.
- Turn off the automatic date and time set feature. Most phones have the option to automatically set the date and time using network connection. You need to turn this off to set the time ahead. Tap the toggle switch next to "Set automatically", "Automatic Date and time" or something similar to turn off the automatic time setting function
- Tap the option to set the date and time. On Android, this is usually a button that says Set Time or something similar. On iPhone, it's the bar with the date and time at the bottom.
- Set the time ahead two and a half hours. To get the full five lives replenished, you need to set the date and time ahead by two hours and thirty minutes or more. Swipe up and down on the hours and minutes in the time to adjust the time, or use the number pad to type in the new time. Tap Done or Save when you are finished.
- Return to your Candy Crush game. After you set the time ahead, you will notice your lives have been replenished. If you run out of lives again, just set the time ahead again.
- When you want to return the time to normal, just go back into the Date and Time settings on your phone and turn on the Automatic Time and Date feature.
