Hello,
I just received my Stratos English Version and was trying to sync my activity with Strava. The Accounts are linked into the Amazfit Watch App, but no sync happen. I tried with Walk, Run, nothing happen.
I also tried to pair MiFit App with Amazfit Watch, but also, nothing happen, it simply opens Amazfit Watch app and no pairing is happening.
I wanted this pair to be able to sync Steps with Apple health. I read that on the pace, the firmware needed to be Chinese ?
Thanks in advance
So I solved one of the 2 problems ..... I saw that my 2 IDs were different in Mi fit and amazfit, so I created account again this time with google sign in. I have the same account ID on both apps.
The sync to Strava is working, but I still cannot pair with Mifit ....
You will not be able to pair International version with MiFit. Only Chinese version pairs with MiFit, but it does not have Strava.
is there a way to extract and sync steps with apple health on the international version ?
I have my Pace synced with both MiFit and Amazfit international versions, I've used a Google account as well. You may need to activate apps listing to fire up "BLE connect" to show the QR code to pair without reseting the watch (unpairing in Amazfit app will reset the watch). Or, if doesn't work, install the Chinese version to pair watch, then remove, then go to international version again (may be complicated on iOS, I did this on Android).
when I put the chinese version of amazfit, it cannot read the QR Code .... it put always scan failed

There are apps and tutorials about it elsewhere, but basically you push an empty text file named "launcher_config.ini" to /sdcard/ on watch. You can also use a third party launcher as QuickLauncher as well, or any other method to open the app, of course.

I think it is different on the stratos, because I cannot see a sd card folder on the watch

Even with a different account and/or after resetting the watch?
Yes, I log in the International version with Google, in the chinese version I have a xiaomi Account with a different User ID.
I tried to reset the watch, delete the bluetooth profile in the phone.does not matter, always a pair error.
May be they have disabled the ability to pair an international watch with the chinese amazfit ?

I don't know, I have a Pace, but it worked. Try creating a new account for the CN version, sometimes it lets it pair again.

Sorry I forgot to mention this, but I had set the region to China !
on IOS to switch to China version of the Amazfit software, you simply have to switch Region of the iPhone
Hi,
Can you tell me the diameter of the watch ? I can not see this specification nowhere ???
the overall diameter is about 47mm ... If you want one, I can sell you mine, the sport integration is not complete enough for me.... I'm living 80 kms from you
What a shame I ordered one just 4 days ago from AlliExpress
I have also a Fenix3, complete for sport but a little too big for daily use
To Scan the QR Code I had to dowload the Chineese version App on Store. QR code was not detected with the EN/EU version App.
Worked for me English version with English app.

Hi everybody from Quebec city
My Bip watch is is with firmware 0.1.0.86
How could I show the record tracking on my walking on Google earth or other ?
I'm on Mac and I have a android phone to "sync" with Mi-Fit and Notify & Fitness app install
(android 5.X)
You can export the .tcx file on Notify and Fitness app, then import it into whatever mapping software you want.
How?
Seem we have many version of Notify and Fitness. What is the version I need and where do I "extract" GPS tracking ?
Thanks in advance

Pro version is needed to see the content of the messages.
For exporting, just open the activity in the app.
On the top right, there is a 3 dot menu
Synchr with others apps
You have 4 choices : Google fit, Export tcx, Strava or RunKeeper
Big Thanks

You sadly can´t - so I sold my iPhone X and bought an Android phone
Now I can sync any TCX file with or without GPS to Endomondo etc. or directly to Strava from Notify & Fitness and from there automatically to most other platforms through the website Tapiriik.
FREE
I guess everybory already spent their money on the Notify and Fitness Pro.
But for those who want to know, i have found a Free Way.
Install these apps: Gadgetbridge and GPX Viewer.
In Gadgetbridge you will open the activity and choose the GPX Viewer.
And that's it. Now your .gpx file is in the GPX Viewer folder.
(Gadgetbridge is still a work in progress, but i succeeded here)
Hi,
for those using Notify & Fitness. I also use this app, but I have observed a problem in the 1st km statistics when running. Strava will show between 30-40 seconds less for first km compared to what the watch shows, or what you can see in Mi Fit or Notify.
When I export activity to tcx file, I see that first tracking points, aproximately first 200-300 meters, always has same time stamp, and that is causing problems in Strava. So far I dont know if this is a problem of how Notify & Fitness export data, or is the watch that is doing it wrong, any idea?
Thanks
iPhone/ iPad supported !

Found 'AmazTools' in the Apple App store recently, and it works well on latest BIP s/w version !! Including GPX/ Strava/ loads of WatchFaces, and extra button functions. Give it a try!

Thanks, it's still working, but I had to set in Mi Fit my Amazfit Bip as visible BT device, then pairing with Gadgetbridge was ok.

Trying N&T i get a slight difference, here are stats :
- mi fit : 3.87kms / 14min43sec
- N&T : 3.88kms / 15min03sec
- Strava : 3.87kms / 14min17sec
Haven't much other tracks, i'll try, is it alike what you experienced..?
Further informations here : https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=78148443&postcount=78
Thanks in advance for insight

Hello @Vinicius_Gonzo
That kind of offset : see attachment
I didn't used gpx viewer but took directly gpx file from Android/data/ee.aegrel.gadgetbridge/files
Thx
Hi,
What's the easiest way to export GPS data to a PC? I have Android phone, not iOS.
Also, how long will be battery last with GPS recording? What's the record frequency (1 pt per second, etc)? And how much data can it hold (e.g. 10 hours)?
Thanks
Hi, have you found a solution? I will only use gadgetbridge and not mi-fit (data-collector)
Hi !! Have you try to use ZEPP App for connect AMAZFIT BIT to Strava ??
Thanks for the tip, it works just fine, I have a question though: the workouts in Gadgetbridge are all off by 1 hour, so my Strava runs aren't in sync with my friend' tracks, have you met this isuue?
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.
http://forum.mibandnotify.com/discussion/comment/349/#Comment_349
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
Hello!
I bought a Stratos watch, so far I'm impressed.
I like it but I do not know yet what else I can do with it and I have the following questions:
How do I use Sleep as Android tracker?
How do I set up Tools & Amazfit?
In some Apps or Widgets, I saw Chinese text, is my ROM Chinese or International
Can I sync it with my Calendar and To-Do lists?
Is there any PDF Reader or Note Reader for the watch?
Any method with Maps and Directions on the Watch?
What else can I do?
I can answer some of the questions.
3. I have a pace with the international version and everything is in my language, no chinese at all, so maybe you have the chinese ROM.
4. You can install some apps on the watch to sync your calendar. (https://forum.xda-developers.com/smartwatch/amazfit/app-widget-calendar-pace-t3751889 or only the timeline https://forum.xda-developers.com/smartwatch/amazfit/app-widget-timeline-v1-0-1-pace-stratos-t3894632) (I believe that I saw and app for the to-do, but I'm not sure...)
6. For the maps directions I use this (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.re.amazfitmaps)
In this forum, you can find some other interesting apps for your watch. We have amazings developers and a lot of options for ours watches!!!
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.

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. ..
Hi all,
I bought Amazfit GTR 42mm few days ago. I'am unable to find way, how to receive notifications from Google Pay after i do some payment. Notifications from any other aplications/SMS are working. I have Google Pay(and also Revolut) in list of application, which should be notify. In Google Pay I have Revolut virtual card as my payment card.
In Revolut I receive some notification to watch, for example if someone send me money, but no notification after I paid for something. I want at least one notification about my payment from Google Pay or from Revolut(on phone are both shown) to be shown on my watches. Unable to figure out how to achieve that... ???
I tried original Amazfit app, AeX mod, MiFit. From apps witch is need to be buy: Notify & Fitness for Amazfit and Tools & Amazfit.
No success to receive notifications to my watch. I tried many settings combination without success. I have two notifications on phone - one from Google Pay and second from Revolut after I pay for something by Google Pay. For me is strange, that I'am able to receive any other notifications like from other apps, from SMS about calls... as I mentioned, I was trying to setup this on many SW combinations/settings, strange...
I'am on Android 9, Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact 47.2.A.11.228 (original FW with Magisk). Amazfit GTR 42mm Global, FW v0.1.0.47
If someone known how to solve this, please give me a hint Thak you!
Hi all,
I figure out, how to make Google Pay notification working - main problem is, that notifications from Google Pay are from com.google.android.gms (Google Play Services), not from com.google.android.apps.walletnfcrel (Google Play) itself.
After I add com.google.android.gms to apps to be notified , notification after contact-less payment through Google Pay(with assigned Revolud card) are shown on my watches!!! Hurray \o/
Still facing strange behaviour with Revolut notifications.
Working Revolut notifications (able to receive this to my Amazfit GTR)
- notification, when someone send me money
- notification about low level of money
Not Working Revolut notifications (unable to receive this to my Amazfit GTR)
- notification about payment, after pay through Google Pay by my Revolut Card (tested both scenarios 1) NFC phone way 2) by Revolut physical card)
So, have someone a solution to receive Revolut notifications after payment to Amazfit GTR? I will write also to Revolut support to ask them - because for me is strange, that some notifications for the same application I'am able to receive, but some notifications not :/
NEWS:
- I tried also fix this by upgrade my Amazfit GTR 42mm to beta FW v0.1.0.51 (Global version - hawkw), not help
- I guess, that problem will be on Revolut app side
- For debug is nice to use for example Notification History - Google play link
BONUS:
- based on my experience the best app for Amazfit GTR with proper working notification is "Notify & Fitness for Amazfit" - Google play link
- in "Notify & Fitness for Amazfit" I can recommand to pair with key (without need to have Amazfit installed)
- also "Tools & Amazfit" working well for notification - Google play link
- any other apps don't bring any advantage to notifications(Amazfit, AeX, Mi Fit, Alert Bridge for Amazfit & Mi Band, Master for Amazfit... etc.) // if you known about other usable, just tell me
Yeah I have the same problem. It's happening on both my amazfit watch and my mi band. Tried mi fit and downgrading the firmware but unfortunately nothing fixed it, so i stopped using Revolut entirely.
Did you find a way?
