Hi all,
I don't know if this already exist or if it is even possible from the technical perspective. I've tried to find how to do it, mainly trying to install one of the already existings apps for android but only one is compatible with the amazfit pace architecture and the result in the watch screen is to poor.
The point is to have a new activity in the smartwatch that record laps by GPS position (fe some garmin models do this as well). You set at the beginning a start point and every time you cross that point the activity set a new laptime. It will be usefull for different sports as for example circuit cycling or motorsports like go karts/motorbikes.
Does someone know if this is possible or if already exist something similar?
Regards
Which device? Pace and Stratos have a function called Autolapse which I guess is what you are looking.

Hi nhedgehog, thanks for your reply.
I have an Amazfit Pace... I can see the autolap by distance or by time but can't find the autolap by gps start position or something called autolapse, where is that? Do you have any custom rom installed?
I don't think you can do it besides auto lap by distance or time, as most watches do. If you need anything else then probably you must export the GPX data on watch, transfer it to computer then use a third party service to edit the data.
I'll answer later, just switched the ROM, don't know if I got confused with all that new settings.
I'm on the Amazfit Pace Chines BETA 2.0.6.12 ROM. Here is a thread which lists the activity settings of some outdoor activities.
You are right I can't define a GPS position as Lap Starting. I have the possibility to define autolap by distance and set this alert on or off but not what you were looking for.
I also would be interested by this GPS lap function
WOS2 on Pace has an "Auto Lap" setting (with option of notification separate from the normal lap notification where you can set the lap length), most probably it exists on Stratos as well... Does it do what you need?

Hi,
I'm planning on buying a Bip or Pace but still haven't decided which one. A feature that is necessary for me is the ability of setting multiple new alarms without using the app in the smartphone. I work with gloves, so everything must be done without taking the phone out of my pocket. Do they both have the ability of doing that? Do you guys have any recommendation on buying the Pace over the Bip?
Thank you all!
The Bip requires new alarms to be added using the app, but they can be enabled/disabled on the watch. The Pace/Stratos both allow the addition, removal and enabling/disabling of alarms on the watch
Be aware the touch screens do not work that well with gloves on though, they're like phone screens
why is it not possible to "set" alarms directly on the watch... a "smart"watch that can't do so simple actions, and need smartphone to do that...

You need the phone once, when you add an alarm. You can still enable/disable them on the watch.
This will have been done to save programming space for the set up procedure to keep costs down on the Bip I'd imagine
I’m struggling with that ‘alarm setting’ also. While the countdown does have a mm:ss that can be set on the Bip, the alarm can not be set with a hh:mm ?? The programming/ space usage for that would be very minimal, and help a lot !! Notice also that the smartphone would not always be around, since Bip can do a lot on its own.
Hi, can a message like "go to appointment" be set with the alarms in amazfit bip and/or other amazfits?
Thanks in advance.
Is there any possiblity to get the actual lap time and lap distance in running mode? So when the lower button is pushed these values could be visible in real time?
Any answer? I'm interested.
Also, how can I view this lap info (time, kms) in the Amazfit app?
Hi, i wrote four times to Huami and a lot of times in the Amazmot Watch to ask to this.
I dont't wontt time , distance , pace of the last lap , a lap finished, I won't the actually lap, for nopw the pace and run faster or lower.
All garmin, suunto, polar can do it

You can do all this now in latest firmware and latest Amazfit version, simply go to the app, Sports widget and add the data fields (they are hidden by default).
Thank you for your answer. My amazfit pace has the latest firmware and my phone has the latest version of the app but I can't find what you say. In the sport widget I only have two options. 1. Intervals (a method to program intervals in pace) and 2. Data fields shown in the watch during different types of sports. In the running type I have all data fields activated.
What we are looking for is the way to analyze in the app times and paces for the manual laps marked during a training.
Thanks in advance

This?
Yes. This looks nice . Have you done anything to activate this?
Attached you can find how it looks an screenshot of my app.
App version is 2.5.2.1-play
Pace firmware 2.8.1.0
Looking the details of your attachment I've seen that the laps are exactly of 500meters (except the last one). Maybe you have turned on the autolap option in the amazfit pace with a lap each 500meters automatically?
What we are trying to do is to mark laps manually, with the rear button, and see times and paces between this manual laps. Is that possible??
Regards

1. Yes
2. Maybe it's possible with Stratos, you have to check it.
It's not possible i have the last chinesse versión 2.0.34.2
I want to see the manual laps during the running activity. I know in the mobile app it's possible.
It's not normal to activate de data LAp time , lap pace, lap distance in the app to see it during the activity but the watch show me only the last finished lap. I want to see the actual lap to see the pace for run faster or slower to do the lap in exactly pace , for example 4:04 the kilometre . NOW the watch show me the last lap and the date is fixed because the lap is finished. This information it's not useful

I'm interested in both functions, on the one hand see time and pace during de running activity, and on the other hand analyse data later in the amazfit app.
Anybody knows if that is posible with Stratos?

Hi,
I'm looking for the same (actual lap time and lap pace), but can't find how to have it. It seems not to be available yet with Stratos.
Is there a mod to have it ?
Another one looking for the same thing.
When i bought the watch (July 2018) the posibility of activate the fields was available in the app, even though the watch didn´t show anything.
Then, from one day to another, the options disapeared from the app.
¡This is really necesary to make quality training!
Lap watch rolling time does not restart
The question was about Lap rolling time on the watch not about the Phone app..
With a click on Lap button the the lap stop on the watch and never restart.
To do a lap training, athlete needs to see is Lap time running.
This behavior does not work on latest Stratos firmware.
Is there a way to got a fix for that.
Thank's
Quote below is ok only for Phone App:

I think you didn't understand: you use the phone app to activate the display of the data fields on watch, one of them is the lap time..
You will see them when recording an activity on watch, obviously.

Lap time right now is a joke. Only shows the lap time the first lap, after that It shows the last time lap, not the actual lap time, It is useless.

That's true, on all standard watches a lap time stop a while and then restart rolling again. On the Amazfit watch it stay stopped and show only the previous lap time, that's useless.

this is a huge issue and renders the watch almost useless for me as a real time training guide. have you had any luck with working out a fix for it?
still not fixed with version 2.3.7.0

No idea, itwill be nice that we can contact Amazfit Stratos developers. But I do not have any link to them.
Hello,
I have recently moved from Suunto to test the new Stratos. I wonder, if anybody used the watch more throughoutly in trekking or navigating environment.
It is really nice that you can directly upload GPX tracks from phone to watch, this saves a lot of time. I wonder, however, if there is possibility to see waypoints on the track, once in the activity, so you get notifications, when you are approaching any waypoint (it helps to mark the turns on the crossroads). It worked just fine in Suunto, but I can't see waypoints in Stratos - maybe I am missing something.
Any help would be appreciated.
Hi,
no waypoints in Stratos latest global firmware

It would be a great imrovement if they would address that in upcoming updates. I think it is the single major feature that I miss compared to previous Suunto Ambit 3.

Then you should try to contact them and request the feature.
Hi,
There is a feature called location in the current stock Stratos ROM which saves your current gps location to be used as a navigation waypoint for compass navigation back to your starting location.
I find it useful, but far more useful as requested in this post would be the facility to upload a gpx location in the same way that gpx routes can be uploaded.
I have requested it on the Amazfit forum FB, but so far no feedback.
There are reports of people Using GPX files with waypoints and it works on Stratos, at least with firmware 2.3.10.4 and up...
A little flag or triangle is displayed for waypoints on Stratos but waypoint descriptions seem to be problematic. Looks like it is trying to show something but is missing proper font or so.
Hi everybody
I bought the amazfit 2 and had a few difficulties with interval workouts.
After i set a training in my phone app and synced it to the watch i went for a run.
In most times the training stop and wont continue to the next lap/interval/repeat/segment and i have to stop the activity and start a new running activity.
Does anyone had this problem and can help me work it out ?
Same problem here
I am having the exact same problem here. Doing interval training, set to trigger on a given distance. After the second or third interval repeat the watch get stuck and the next interval never starts, forcing me to save the activity and start a new one. This is really not ideal. I was using a BT HRM, wondering if that might be contributing to the issue ?
First of all, there is no Stratos 2:
Stratos is Huami Sports Watch 2, or simply Stratos (some call it Pace 2, since it came after Pace, but it's also wrong).
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
That being clarified, there is a know bug about interval repetitions, it hangs after some time. A simple workaround is adding multiple intervals with the same distance (or time), dumb but usually work. If you have an International version of the watch (A1619), you can report it in the link below, maybe they fix it some day:
https://support.amazfit.com/hc/en-us/requests/new
I have that bug when changing screens. If i dont change between screens then no problem at allí.
Hi,
During a long outdoor activity, I'm not really interested in all the details of the workout. I would rather have a nice watch face to look at and when the activity is ended look at the details of it.
So I was wondering if it is possible to enable GPS tracking in the background during the day or have an activity with a normal watch face instead of all the activity details?
Hello,
I do not know all the parameters of the watch, but to have searched, it seems impossible to launch the GPS without going through an activity and therefore the display sport watch face.
In your case, if it is possible for you, I will choose to record the position (and the route) by the phone, rather than the watch... With the zepp app you can start an activity on the phone, it will look for the sports data on the watch and the GPS signal on the phone and the watch wiil keep the "normal" face

Thx for the reply! Already suspected it, but thx anyway. Phone is not really an option (milsim events), so I think I just buy a second device for the recording.
Sorry, but on the older amazfit watches like amazfit pace, etc when we are doing workout we can have simple maps( just line and direction ) on our watches.
Which workout provides the same functionality on gtr 3 pro. I cant find the maps on my watch when im doing outdoor workout
