Hello, do youn know if there's a way to sync Gear's steps counter with Google Fit ? Or if does exist a way to use Wear's steps counter in S Health?
I want use S health for all my troubles with others fitness apps... but:
Lifesum write calories in S Health but it reads steps only from Google Fit. It doesn't support Gear S.
Sleep as Android reads sleeping data from wear but it doesn't write them correctly in S-Health.
Runtastic sleep takes data only from a phone (it doesn't support either wear and gear S).
Runtastic supports gear but it doesn't count steps from gear.
Please, can anybody help me?
I've got Lg Watch R and Samsung Gear S.... and I'd like to use Samsung S Health. Thanks!!!

Does anyone know of an app or any development to bring google now to the Gear S?
1. I want to be able to add reminders from the watch with my voice and them be in google reminders, not that crappy Samsung reminders.
2. add items to lists with my voice. Google now does this with Keep
3. being able to check things off of my lists from my watch would be nice too, although I think this would require a Keep companion in addition to the Google now companion
The only way I can figure to get the first 2 in one go, would be to have google now voice functionality on the watch. If anyone has some other ways or ideas how to accomplish these things, please let me know
OK here is what I have found so far:
1. I know I can receive notifications from google now on my Gear S. They are clunky at best, and it is not what I want
2. I know there is an ALPHA of android wear I can TRY to put on the Gear S. Not worth the trouble and I wouldn't get the standalone functionality of the watch.
And if so could someone please explain to me how to pair it. Notify and fitness mentions unpairing from the mifit app and only pairing with notify, but when I do this the watch only shows the connect to app icon. I would love to just use notify as mifit and notified seem to fight sometimes.
Yes, you can. I use it all the time and don't have Mi fit installed.
Just click on the menu button (3 lines in top left)
Then in the menu that shows, scroll down to the option: Re-Pair with Amazfit
It will disconnect (if connected) and then pair again with the Amzfit Bip.
Works great and there is less battery loss then with Mi Fit.
Do you pair originally with mifit then uninstall it? When I unpaired with mifit nothing I do in Notify takes the watch off the connect to phone screen. Notify says it's paired but the watch doesn't.

Yes, i started on my phone with the Mi fit app, but for my wife i never installed Mi fit.
What you can do after unpairing Mi fit, is using N&F and then install the latest firmware.
See here for a description what to do (follow all steps 1 through 5 except the Chinese characters step). The description is for step 5 (GPS), but simply start with 1.

Thank for the replies, unfortunately it's just not working. When I have Mifit uninstalled and paired with Notify, when I try to update the firmware it disconnects from Notify. I can re-pair the watch in Notify but when the firmware update starts its disconnects.
I love the concept of Notify and the custom notifications but I'm about to get a refund on the pro purchase and just use the stock software for consistency.
I tried to uninstall Mi Fit and pair through Notify. The pairing icons wouldn't go away from the watch. It looked like the phone was getting data from the watch, but the watch was not recognizing it was paired. There is a Reddit thread https://www.reddit.com/r/AmazfitBip/comments/8dhyft/do_i_need_to_keep_mi_fit_when_using_another_app/ with other people having this issue. It would be nice to only have to run one app on the phone to cut down on battery usage.
I figured it out. In the notify app, go to settings and under the advanced tab, scroll down to where it says something about the official mi fit app. Select the app isn't installed and your watch should connect to the notify app
Cannot go to the main screen of the app
Hi all,
I have a problem with my amazfit pace.
I have MiFit installed and paired (as well as Amazfit app).
Whn I install Notify and fitness asks me for permissions wich I grant and asks if the watch is correctly paired.
After that I get to a Screen with several app list to activate notifications or not but I'm not able to go to the main page with all the features...
Is this happening to someone else?
Thanks
I would like to say thank you to the devs of this app. I'm a paid user and I have a question. Is there a way to use Notify App for only integration with Sleep as Android? I use the amazfit app as I like their graphs better. Thanks
I am using Amazfit Bip Global version un touched original Fw with official Mi Fit App.
When syncing with google fit i show that burnt calories completely wrong (some times hundreds more than burnt) values on google fit.
(also test with notification& fit app)
i am the only person with this problem?
this is annoying 'cos mi fit app is missing calorie management so we have to use google fit sync to use 3rd part app like fat secret shealth or etc...
plase help
100+ views and 0 replies. its interesting nobody using google fit sync?
I don't have BIP, but i know that in Google Fit it shows this very clear: "total calories burnt is also calculated using the amount estimated while you aren't doing an activity", or something like this. This means it will calculate the total amount from both the activities and "normal life" (I don't know how to say this in English, lol), so it is expected that Google Fit shows a higher value than MiFit, which I use with Pace.
I have a Galaxy S9+ and a Gear Fit2 Pro. Since I generally wear the Fit2 I would like to use Smart Lock with the Fit2 as a trusted device to prevent screen locking. But the only way I've been able to get that to work is to allow the Fit2 permissions for Calendar, Contacts, Location, Phone, SMS and Storage. Are all these permissions in fact required?
In addition to privacy concerns with these permissions, I don't want my wrist buzzing every time I get a phone call or text. And BTW I don't use Samsung's SMS messaging app, which they also seem to require. I use my Fit2 only to tell the time, and display heartrate, steps, calories, etc ..... I don't use it for communications, notifications, etc

Hi, I've never had other smartwatch. I got it as a gift. First of all I was surprised that it doesn't work standalone at all. You have to install MiFit app to just start watch to work (after quite long time of installing/updating watch's firmware or so). What is more, You have to create an account on a manufacturer server to use the watch. Than the data are synchronized between a watch and phone. I do not feel comfortable to use closed source apps due to fact I do not know what of my data (in fact) are collected. Even if a manufacturer says in terms and conditions that he collects just these and those data You never know it, You can not check it due to fact that software is closed source. So I did create an account, started the watch and than uninstalled MiFit app. I can use the watch only as regular watch (to check the time), check my pulse from time to time and how many steps I did during the day- that's all. Do all smartwatches work this way? Why do I have to have MiFit app working in background, be connected with manufacturer's server to transfer data between my phone and watch? Why bluetooth enabled is not enough once both devices has been paired? Is there any way to control the watch without MiFit app installed and working? Thanks in advance.
You definitely need a MiFit profile.
As alternative app you can use "Notify and Fitness" app, that can be used without the MiFit.

Regards,
Thanks for a reply Prompter. I know that I need a profile to activate a watch. My main problem with using This watch is that I do not want to be constantly connected to server with an app which is closed source. You told me about an alternative app which is also closed source :/. I know that I can use gadgetbridge open source app after created a profile with MiFit, but Than I need a rooted phone to obtain an individual special key for my device. I have no rooted phone. ..
