Amazfit Watch app 1.5 is out!
After months of despair the Amazfit Watch app's update has appeared in the Play Store.
It has steps and sleep display with nice charts, so we're able to check our activity hourly, daily, weekly...
I hope Xiaomi / Huami will release a new FW for the USA version, because v1.3.2b is nice and stable, but lacks a few features of the Chinese FW, plus I had my first bug yesterday: after about 0.9 km of walk the watch displayed that I've accomplished half of the daily step goal, and the activity has restarted itself (so the watch hasn't rebooted), so I've lost the first third of my walk.

- Support .gpx import. Users can follow an imported route when running or biking and get alerts when deviating from the route
- Support activity data upload through WiFi
- Added "Daily Overview" widget to view users' daily activity in one place
- Show app list and provide access to all built-in apps on the watch
- Support weather info on customizable watchfaces
- Other bug fixes
(Thanks to Fco. Rafael Reyes for this awesome video!)
The digital watchfaces are working, but I'll share with you my experiences in a few days.
After a day: 1.3.3a seems to be faster than the 1.3.2b was. My experiences:
- Uploading data directly from the watch is so kewl - it just works!
- There is a battery icon on the 6 segments display besides the small clock.
- At the end of a session the finalizing is a lot faster, like it takes half of the time needed before.
- The battery life seems to be the same as it was before, so it's good.
- The digital watchfaces are working now.
- The GPS firmware is also new, so we'll see if it's more accurate or not.
I'll share my further experiences with you in a few days. I'll walk over 40 km during the weekend, so I'll have some more time testing the GPS.
Syncing problem with strava
I cannot just sync my activity to strava. It's so frustrating. Can anyone tell whether they have been able to see their activities on strava. I have tried all the methods logging in and out of strava again and again but it doesn't work.

Are you running the latest (1.3.3a) FW? Everything is fine for me, even uploading the data to Strava directly from my watch.
Maybe you should unpair your watch to see if pairing it again would solve your problem or not.

I don't know, but try to log out from Amazfit and Strava, and log back in again.
If that doesn't help, try to unpair and re-pair your watch.
I've updated to 1.3.3a but can't see the "app list"
- Show app list and provide access to all built-in apps on the watch
Any ideas?
Hi,I have problem on Amazfit smartwatch, after last update 1.3.3a ,battery drain to fast about 7% per 1 hours. I did reset and unpair and without positiv result. Can somehow do a hard reset? Do not anyone have a similar problem? Before update was everything ok.

Did you try to completely turn off your watch and then back on?
I had this problem once with Redmi 3 phone. Restart didn't help but when I turned it off and then back on, the batter was OK.

I did a hard reset one of this days but the problem with mine is the battery goes like 50%in 6 hours but only if I turn off the Bluetooth of the phone . Otherwise it's OK .
Anyone else?

I tried it several times and without result, battery 1% per 10min down ...
Same issue here...
Battery drain and GPS speed/pace does not update on watch face with accurate numbers during workout.
Did any of you try to contact Huami US support? I don't know if they answer e-mails but there's no harm in trying...

They don't answer unfortunately
Stuck on updating page for 4 days now
Hi, I was on 1.3.2b and received a notification to update 1.3.3. So I went and update the watch, and the watch has now been stuck on the updating Please do not power off the watch for the last 4 days. What happen was 2 days ago the battery went flat, so I plugged it into the charger it boots up and proceed with the updating process again but still stuck when it finally reaches the end. Any help would be highly appreciated. Thanks!
Hey guys I have a weird problem with my Amazfit Stratos. So everything was working fine last night, but today I discover that I am not getting notifications from my phone (iPhone 6) to the watch. I run the "test notification" option in the app, and they show, but real notification don't... so I restarted the device (the watch) and when it booted up i discover that I don't have the activities and sport screens on the left of the main screen and also the watchface shows only when the watch is "locked" (otherwise it is just.. black). I also see some strange stuff on my last screen (see attachments). The first one opens "sports", the second "Activities" and the last one - "Daily Overview".
Any idea what is going on? It looks like something is not loading properly, but I have no idea what to do. I am using the original firmware.
PS: The good news is that notifications work now.
1. If you are using an APK watchface, probably it's not the right version for your firmware, uninstall and restart watch.
2. Go to Amazfit app settings, widgets and enable/disable one of them, if they do not re-arrange you may need to unpair, logout from Amazfit, login and pair watch again. Unparing erases all data on watch.
I did a factory reset and everything is ok now.
PS: I was using one of the stock watchafaces.
I decided to change the watch face for the first time in quite some time today and....nothing! When I to to watch face settings the screen is blank with no options for either local or online watch faces, just a very faint lighthouse logo with 4 Chinese characters beneath it on the Online section.
My phone is running Nougat and the app was updated to the latest version. The bip has undergone its updates. The only thing that has changed is my location, I'm currently in South Africa, but I cant see that being an issue, or am I missing something?
I tried unistalling the app but it hasnt changed anything. What do you guys suggest?
Exact same problem here. Sony Xperia XZs and Android Oreo 8.0.
EDIT: For a fraction of a second, just before the chinese characters show up, it says "Couldn't get data" or something similar.
Just use the GadgetBridge method, this still works.

It suddenly started working by itself. I did nothing.
This is very strange, since we have two Bip watches on two different phones and the other one was always working just fine.
Hi guys, it seems that after the last is update my verge no longer has "hiking" under the activities list. It's still present in the app on the phone in the settings, where you can change what real time items you want to see but not on the watch itself. All the other activities still appear, it's just hiking that disappeared...
Did this happen to anyone else? I want to know if it's an actual issue before I try resetting my watch, I already rebooted but it did nothing.
Yes, it seems it had gone MIA in Verge's International firmware (probably a firmware bug/regression). I still have it on my Verge with latest Chinese firmware.
Thanks for the confirmation, at least I won't have to reset it anymore. I don't think they are removing it though as it still appears in the Amazfit settings app, most likely just a bug. Hopefully it's going to get fixed at the next update.
Hello guys,
I have this weird issue: I gave my old Amazfit Bip Lite to my wife. Now the old Mi Fit app had been replaced with Zepp Life app and that's fine. I paired the watch with her phone. The app let me select the smartwatch model, and there's only one choice for both Amazfit Bip and Amazfit Bip Lite.
The app updated the whole watch firmware correctly (15 minutes!), except for the GPS firmware - which I guess should be fine, as the Bip Lite has no integrated GPS hardware.
The thing is, now, EVERY SINGLE TIME she opens Zepp, the app still retries to update GPS firmware. It tooks like 5 minutes every time before failing, during while you can't use both the watch and the app. It looks like the watch has been detected as a Bip and not a Bip lite... and there's no way to change this in the menu.
What can I do now? Any ideas? Deleting and re-pairing the watch didn't help, and waiting 5 mintues every time you open the app...well is painful.
Any help is appreciated, thank you very much!
My mistery is still unsolved... Any help? I was thinking about forcing the installation of an old firmware though notify&fitness app and upgrade the watch from that, but I'm unsure about downgrading, as it looks like a brickful procedure.
