What did they do? Today they released 3.0.0-play on Play Store.
My verge have to be "activated"....ok
No more HF curves, ohne a Table with numbers. See picture, Pulse=HF
The app will be unclear from version to version.
My point of view? They killed herself. Im out after 6 Month if this is the result. The "Verge" count steps, but the cant show it in the app - and so on and so on.
****ty update. On pace the heart rate and steps no longer sync with the phone app. Also I'm always asked to have the location on on my phone in order to connect with the watch? No, Thanks!
Delete the app and reinstall it, I just updated too now, but it did not work properly not even with clear cache. Once I reinstalled and updated it's pretty cool actually, it's basically Mi Fit now. It even added my old data that I had synced from an Amazfit BIP. The table with numbers appears if you have manual measurements enabled on the watch, if you have it on continuously monitoring then it will show the curves too.
This has totally screwed ability to run mi fit & amazfit app in parallel (former for Google fit sync). Wouldn't let me log in for ages. Seems to have settled down now but now have no way to sync. Emailed support but last time I did for something they were as much use as a chocolate teapot. Let's see how they get on.
Update makes the App like Mi Fit ..its Okay. You have to disable continues heartrate ans enable it again to get the old continued overview (amazfit Pace)

You have to go to Profile -> Amazfit Verge -> activate. I dont no what the developer drunks as hi script this, but it was the wrong thing.
After 24h i get a curve für HF and not only the table.
I miss the batterie level in the start screen.
My verge won't be recognized at all with new update
I had to re-register and create a new account on Amazfit so I could continue using Mi Fit (Mi Band 3) with Xiaomi account and Amazfit (Stratos) with Amazfit account. Otherwise they can't work simultaneously anymore.

I faced that too. During bar code scanning it won't recognise the watch. I have to use 2.9.0 to pair.
In 3.0.0 after the watch lost connection with the phone (i.e. go out for a run without bring the phone). It will not connect to the phone again (forever lost connection). I have to reboot the phone to connect.

I thought the same, but after some manual check of heart rate, some sync all heart rate is showing as was before and if say honest i love now this app, it became much more better, giving good advises, also there are much more option like to edit sleep time, weight and ec t. So app became full sport tracking app... Ok ok almost, need calories add option, but anyway it very good step to forward. All yours information is, just try to find it. Some of them is in sport, some of yours profile and ect. By the way now Amazfit app giving much more information, analyzes and ect. Did i mentioned that i love now this app? :laugh: Cheer up it became much more... better, powerful, informative and many more.... :highfive:
P.S. They showing steps, and you know what's new? They showing how much you need into yours daily target, so nice... Keep smiling, believe me app is much more better just need some time to find everything, cuz was changed a little bit design, but now app showing much more as was before with much more tools to change if something was incorrect like sleep tracking... Even you can now control yours weight what wasn't before...
DID I MENTIONED IT TRANSLATED NOW TO NATIONAL (my) LANGUAGE? What do you want MORE??? :angel:

It just need to push connect, i don't know, guys, where is problem, but for me everything working just PERFECT. I just push to connect without any scanning of bar again. There is no any problems now with app, for me it working without any issues/bugs and etc. Maybe you just need to check and time to know everything... My Verge have latest update, app is 3.0.0 too If say honest enough easily i found everything and now i have really good tool of my health tracking

GUYS and GIRLS!!! If you don't know something it doesn't mean that it bad - that DEDICATED for all which don't know about this app and screaming here that this is app is now worst... App is very good if say honest i did not saw better version of this app yet until now... Thanks to Amazfit/Huami/Xiaomi developers, but now app is best which was until now Cheer up!!! :victory: I did not found everything too, but i checked a little bit everything and i found: heart rate, steps, sleep, weight, battery level and ect. Everything is in app and much more. Just look in all app's section first and then scream here... Everything is in app as was before + new options, tools, information and ect.
Try to factory reset your watch and scan again? (As a new user)
For who the watch doesn't connect with new Amazfit app, that's my workaround; clear app cache
For who doesn't receive notifications in watch, go to settings in phone and search access to notification and enable again
The translation to my language is atrocious. Barely makes sense half of the time. It's obvious that they have just machine translated from English.

Some text like: heart rate times/min, weight, see more statuses, compared with similar users (this text is in weight section), VO2 Max (all explain too), training load (all explain too), Amazfit verge profile all section (like: watch faces text, battery text, connected text and all section at all), almost all my record section wasn't translated at all, all text still is in english. Some text like in sleep section: light sleep is translated like slow sleep. But in general all other is translated good, i don't have any complaints. Need keep in mind that my language at all is one of hardest in the world, so i'm happy that at all is translation, even of advises and explains of most sections like sleep, weight and ect. I was suprised at all how some text at all was correct translated, i thought they have worker from my country as have (or had in past) biggest companies in the world, like: Google, Walt Disney and ect.
You cant Switch the View of Google Maps for runs (Like Terrain) as before..und Google sync does Not Work Any more... Thats the only disadvantages what i have found.
Alexa account login suddenly available in the 3rd party account but my watch's (Verga) widget is not loaded.
Wicked
Mine just faced problem with connection. App couldnt find my watch even bluetooth said already connected. In app it said "No paired devices, tap to pair" after tap>Watch>Amazfit Verge> .. It openned with scan "Place the code on Amazfit inside the frame" but what is the code ? Pls help.
Edit 1 : I've tried restart both watch and phone, still couldnot solve. Uninstall Amazfit App cant solve. Finally decided to Factory Reset now everything comeback working, QR code shown on watch then can scan with app it works fine now.

Introduction
I've been working on a project to incorporate Amazon's Alexa into an Android application as a standalone. It started as an Android TV project, and then got ported over to Android mobile. This weekend I finally got the project to work on Android Wear, so now you can speak to (and listen, if you have speakers or connected Bluetooth speakers) Alexa from your wrist. Because I only have access to an LG G Watch, for the moment, I would love to hear any feedback you all have on issues you find or how you think the project can be made better. The more Wear hardware that it's tested with, the better.
Download
You can get the app here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.willblaschko.android.alexalistens or download the APK from the Android TV link above.
More Details
If you want to read a little more about the code behind the implementation, I've done a write up for the TV/phone app here and will be putting together a piece on the Wear app.
Thanks!
Do I need to have an Alexa unit in order for this to work?
Great app, thanks. Ran into a persistent crash issue quickly though. If I uncheck the "Android Wear Preferences"->"Play on mobile" option and try anything from my Huawei watch it shows a message on the phone saying that Alexa Listens has crashed and it does not work. If I leave the option checked it works fine especially where I can hear the voice response on my phone, it was pointless to hear the response from the mobile also which is why I wanted to disable it.
is there a link for a version of this that will install on KitKat? this app looks exciting and I tried downloading earlier apk versions of this app but just get the "error parsing package" pop-up ... really want to try it out but upgrading from android 4.4 on my note 3 probably isn't gonna happen ... this looks awesome thanks
still really excited to try this. i have a Huawei Watch and my phone is Samsung galaxy note 3 on android 4.4 ... my note 3 hasn't exploded yet so I can't risk an upgrade to a newer android version but still really want to try your app!
Wow, this is great. Good work!
oh man this looks like something I really really want ... does anyone know how to alter the apk so I can install this on a Samsung note 3 with android 4.4.2? (modifying build.prop didn't work)
Enjoying the possibilities with this app. I have it on a oneplus 3 with a Huawei Watch. When it works it is great, but quite often from the watch it will not respond. I can then go into settings on the phone app and deactivate the always on listener then reactivate it. After that it works from my watch again for a while... until it doesn't and I have to do the deactivate/reactivate all over again. Any ideas?
works perfect for me, Voice response and all. But i was wondering could u add the option for the mic to auto listen on launch? as oppose to having to click the mic when u want to talk to it, would make it easier to use without all those screen taps
---------- Post added at 08:08 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:01 AM ----------
also this app literaly breathes NEW LIFE into my huawei watch, this feature alone single handly makes my android watch a must have, " Turn off lights " on the wrist and " request a uber" a is exactly what the google claimed the android watch would be bale to do, but until this app was unable to do
Works well, thanks for this. I did remove it but for some reason it still shows up on the watch even though it is not on the phone. Any idea why?
Hi will,
thanks for the great app, I really love it! I just picked up an Asus Zenwatch 3 and this is a Must-Have
As I'm using it quite often now, I tought I should share my experiences.
The ZW3 comes with two mappable buttons, I put Alexa Listens on one of those, that's really convenient. I'd love if Alexa would listen automatically after starting the App, I think this would be a nicer UX.
Alexa Speech Output has some minor flaws. I did some German Skills, which I used for testing. One replies with SSML - audio and speech afterwards (e.g. on Echo Dot), Alexa Listens only plays the audio (but this could be a flaw in my Skill too).
When Alexa isn't understanding my input, there's no real feedback, it just remains silent (or maybe I'm missing something). Echo Dot usually replies with "I didn't understand that" or similar, that's nicer.
@will.blaschko You aren't open sourcing this, are you? Personally, I'm a huge fan of TuneIn on all devices - I'd love to write the player support for the app, just to get it
Thanks again for the great app!
Working on a new version now, so hopefully that'll be available soon --including support for UK/DE.
If you want to look at the source that powers most of the app: https://github.com/willblaschko/AlexaAndroid
New version is in the Play Store, I can post here as well if you want .

Please take a look at it!
Thanks!

Listener Sensitivity!
Hello!
The App is Awesome, but far to Sensitive!? I have Samsung-Galaxy-Tab-S (LTE) with Stock-Android-6.0.1 rooted, and the App reacts all few Seconds!? When I set "Not Sensitive" in the Sensitivity-Options, I can Yell, but the App don't reacts at all, and when I set "Normal", it reacts all the time all few Seconds!? Can You Please add a Possibility to set the voice-sensitivity in percent!? Or a Option between "Not Sensitive" and "Normal"!? I really want to use this App every Day, and I will Donate to, but how it is now, a cannot use it, because it reacts not at all, or every few seconds!?
Thanks!
Problem installing app
Hi I tried to install this app on my Zenwatch 3, however, if I go to the app-store, it says the app is not compatible. What am I doing wrong?
Hi,
there's a place where I can find some good app (apk) modified to works on my Amazfit Pace? I've already installed ADB...
Don't think so, Android wear app don't work on Amazfit
Yes, it is possible. The info was provided in another forum (requires registration), for watches that use full Android instead of Wear, like Amazfit Pace. I've found this info here:
http://amazfitcentral.com/2017/11/16/use-android-wear-apps-amazfit-pace/
I have successfully ported some, it's not that hard. Most apps for AW 1.5 that doesn't require the companion phone app to work are very easy to install on Pace.
Thanks!

This apps works well with small round displays, and can sync over wifi so you can use your computer or phone to enter data and read it on your watch:
- TickTick (very good reminder app even in free version, can connect with Twitter or email account)
play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ticktick.task
TickTick usually uses RAM while on background (needed for sync and notifications, of course), otherwise it performs very well. I just wanted TickTick to remove the top bar when scrolling an item when viewing it.
Tick Tick Installed on Phone
Hi
Thank you very much for the reply.
I just installed the Tick Tick in my Mobile phone, but this app is for Mobile phone and not for Amazefit pace watch.
Is the Mobile app able to remind me on my Amaze fit watch.
Thanks in advance.

No, it doesn't work, it doesn't support Android 5.1 (the version on Pace). But you know you can upload GPX data to watch and use it, right? If you need an offline map, you can try OsmAnd or Galileo (version 1.6.6 works very well on Pace).
do you have link to pace apk for Osmand and Galileo?

Hello. Did you read my previous comment? You must download and install the regular app (the same used on phones) to the watch. Then open it and choose the account to sync it using WiFi.
If you need help installing apps on watch:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/smartwatch/amazfit/amazfit-pace-enable-app-list-install-t3639617
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lo-SIiBa25w
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kR-j_aCsu_A
Once TickTick is installed on watch, connect with your Twitter account (you must have done this on phone too, same account, so it can sync to watch). You will need a browser, I recommend installing XBrowser on watch too, it is small and works well. You may want to install PaceOn too, it turns WiFi on and keep the screen on so it doesn't disconnect.

Sorry, but I don't like to apps outside Play Store. That said, I have used files downloaded from APKMirror or APKPure (I can't guarantee this one is safe), OsmAnd is version 2.5.3 and Galileo Free is 1.6.6.
Regarding hiking, I have tested both regular apps (the one that runs on phones) and they work somehow on Pace too, ViewRanger is very sluggish, but AlpineQuest runs surprisingly well (only the paid version records tracks tho):

Hello,
Since there is no possibility to add a custom workout profile (cardio, weight training etc), it is possible to install Endomondo or Sports Tracker apk on the Pace 2 (Stratos) and run it to track indoor workouts like weight lifting, cardio etc.? If it is possible, then would like to know if I can also port the daily tracking metrics to those apps? This is the only feature that I'm missing and it is stopping me to buy this wonderful watch.
I think all they have to do is add a feature to add a custom workout profile and allow the user to choose the data points in the same way Garmin allows.
Please help.
Hi,
I just saw on FB that someone received international version.

Bought from here https://www.aliexpress.com/item/Eng...161407.html?shortkey=RbuQRZFV&addresstype=600
According to comments it wirks with AmazFit app from play store. So it means it is really and oryginal version.
Interesting, I swapped the CN AmazFit app for the US one (2.0.3 version added Stratos support) and my watch still shows up as Sports Watch 2 while the add watch section lists it as Stratos(+). I didn't try adding it through the QR code (as unpairing does a factory reset, anoying).
I'm curious if there are many differences between the 2.3.0.8 version and the 2.0.10.0 version. I think the China only apps will be missing (they are also not listed in the US app) but other than that I'm not sure.
The app also says there are no updates so I think it supports both A1619 and A1609 as different devices.

The Chinese Firmware (or any based on it) will only pair with the Chinese App, however once paired it will remain paired when you switch to the English one.
Sounds good. But still there is no workout sports mode which is essential for a sports watch. Is here no huami developer? If you read this, can you add this sports mode. Just HR and time, calories burned. Quite simple.

What do you mean by that? Do you want a watchface that displays this info? Most watchfaces display this info in some way. And some of the customizable ones let you choose which widget to display on the watchface.
Yes, this info is already there. But you cannot record it as an activity.
Furthermore, I don't understand the following. Regarding Firstbeat the watch has Personalized Training Plans: Cardio. Not the running or cycling training plans. But it is not possible to record a cardio/gym training?

Hi
I'm thinking to buy the amazfit 2 strato,
What kind of for frimware runnig on the starto?
Androidware or some kind of huawei?
There an option to install google play store on that watch?
Best Regards
@nirlagzi
Android yes but not wear.
It runs a custom Huami launcher l, bit you can install APKs and some modified wear apps. You can find some examples around here.
Google play is currently not something I would hold my breath for, if this is something you really need then you might want to look at the tickwatch 2 as an alternative.
I just received the international version today, actually not enough time to play with it I will test it over the weekend, everything is in English including the manual and the app.

Hello,
Thank you very much,
Im looking for a watch with "regular" watch look, like the lg w200, or amazfit 2, preferd android ware, do you have any suggesttion What watch to buy?
@SteffenBerlin
there is a good reason for not providing a gym workout.
99% of the time the people will use the inbuild HR monitor that will not really work with exercises that flex the hands.
So people will complain about it ( they do already when they use for ex indoor cycling as activity for gym workout ).
No, that's why one can pair a chest strap heart rare monitor with the watch.

Besides of the "bug correction", the main differences are the China apps, and the added sports that the chinese version has: Ski, and Soccer and Tennis (for version 2.0.11)

Sounds good. But still there is no workout sports mode which is essential for a sports watch. Is here no huami developer? If you read this, can you add this sports mode. Just HR and time, calories burned. Quite simple.

You have this mode. Just use treadmill, and that's it. You have Time, Elapsed time, HR and calories burned.

If people would be sensible, yes.
But people are stupid and they will complain, as they are doing now as well.

No, that's why one can pair a chest strap heart rare monitor with the watch.

have you paired a chest strap with the Stratos?
No, I did not try to pair a chest strap. But it is on the feature list.
Using the treadmill mode could lead to sideeffects. Treadmill counts steps as well. It can be mis-calibrated, if used for boot camp training without steps. Also Treadmill is probably considered in the VO2max calculation. That's why all sport watches have a other oder cardio mode even it is a trivial one and not considered in advanced training metrics.
Hello all,
On FB I just noticed that someone has uploaded US FImware.
Here you go:

I do not have watch yet so I am unable to test

Yes, that's me.
I will probably post it here tomorrow with more info and stuff.
NOTE THAT YOU WILL NEED UNLOCKED BOOTLOADER AND ADB/FASTBOOT DRIVERS.

Sorry, I didn't meant treadmill (I had a translation error), I was thinking about elliptical trainer. Taht does not have steps, or anything similar. Also indoor cycling is the same. As far as I know, the metrics shown and results are equal. I think they are only different in order that the user can see it listed with different icon/type.

Thank you! I was waiting for that! At the moment, though, I think that I will stay a bit with the chinese version, because I want to test the ski and tennis modes, which are not present in the chinese version. As soon as they are included in the International version, I'll change it!

Hi there,
i'm trying to build a companion app similar to watchdroid with wich i can send data to the watch and display them on a widget/springboard.
In my case i wan't to have my blood glucose level on my watch as i was used to with my android wear watch.
I have a simply app made with taske wich can read out a json from my nightscout site. This sadly work only via wifi.
Main problem is the bluetooth comunication. i've tried so many simply bluetooth apps and librarys via sideload. I can't even tell how many. Non of them worked out. Only some worked in watch to phone direction but not the other - desired - way. In almost every case, my phone could'nt even find the watch.
But since watch droid got it working, i know there is a way.
There is another way to get data to the watch: the notification system. Since i also could'nt get the notification listener to work on the watch, it is also not a starting point for me.
Last chance i see is automizing watchdroid and sending a file at a regulary scedule and reading this from the widget.
For the moment i just use Notify and fitness cause the Phone notification with my glucose level is persistent and the huami app ignores persistent notifications.
But get a new notification with my glucose level every 5 Minutes. On the phone the notification gets just updated, on the watch i get a new one. Over the day the notification stack gets fuller and fuller...
I'm not talking about geting this into a watchface, thats the next step after the next hundreds of steps.
Any help and tipps are welcome.
When a notification is dismissed on the phone, it should dismiss on the watch.
If you have the source to this app, you could make it dismiss it's notification and send a new one.

Hello,
what application do you use to get a notification every 5 minutes ??? you use a FreeStyle Free blood glucose sensor ??? I will be very happy to read you to know if you succeeded !!!

Yes, it's freestyle libre with ambrosia blucon nightrider for nfc readout and transmission every 5 min. The app i use is xdrip+.
The notification is persistent to keep the data collector service running, to show the value on the notificatiin icon even on the aod of samsungs.

ah yes anyway, the price of "ambrosia blucon nightrider" as we say at home "it stings the eyes". before you give me the answer I was wondering how you did to get back the FreeStyle scan, so I understand. on the other hand to use the nightscout, it is a little the course of the fighter ... a lot of account to create. damage that the app glimp or other does not regroup suddenly!
It's currently my intention to build a framework for both phone and watch to allow apps to get data from the internet at some point in the next few months. I'm stuck with work to do at the moment so don't have any time to put towards projects (especially not big ones like that) but in the future - probably
I'd ideally also like to get Android Wear (not Wear OS, it's an old version) working too, to allow at least some companion apps to function (Sleep as Android, Keep etc.). I've got the framework working fine (which does improve app compatibility, but no communication still severely limits what they can do), but the two way Bluetooth connection throws an error that I cannot find any documentation about, so it's on hold for now until I have sufficient time to investigate properly
This would be awesome to have a framework like this. In my case i would'nt even need real internet access, due to the web service is localy provided by the xdrip app. But this would open so many things and possible options to code. Let me know if i could help. I'm also short in time but willing to help.
Getting Android wear working on the pace/stratos would also be great. I tried out sideloading the micro apk for wear of xdrip+ and it worked out better than expected. No crashes from the app and even the integrated watchfaces were selectable. Of course there were no data shown and no low power watchface.

It might actually be possible to build a newer version of Android, source code exists for the CPU and MIPS sources exist all the way up to Oreo, but again that would take time I don't have (and space for that matter)
Just wanted to let you know, that thanks to edotassi i have a working widget with my blood glucose values on my Stratos.
https://github.com/edotassi/AmazMod
https://github.com/edotassi/AmazModService
Now i'm fine tuning the widget and maybe also the nightscout parts of amazmod. But i'm still learning.

Hi, great news. Will this work on Amazfit BIP ?
Since the Bip does not rely on the AmazFit Watch app, i'd say no.
Can you show on the photo the indications of the xdrip on the watch? how it works.
Hi, i'm now trying to integrate quinnys library into xDrip, to make thinks easy and to allow 2 way communication.
Since xDrip is a really big and complex project + i'm a noop i'm having trouble with providing a switch in the menus and finding the right place to start the service from. Maybe someone can help me out again.
I am also really interest of amazfit bit. I saw now, xdrip have one section called "amazfit synk service" look like can connect with this kind of phones. Are there news to see the value on the display?

None of this will work with the Bip, it's too limited
Is there any way to implement the clockscreen or widget from Glimp instead of XDrip on the Stratosphere. I'm getting better use from Glimp and MiaoMiao.

You should ask this the devs of glimp.
Hi everyone.
I have been using Bip for the last year, loved it, but missed few exercise tracking options, so after viewing few reviews I got the Stratos 3 in my hands. My first surprise was it does not use the mi fit app. So after pairing with the amazfit app I noticed quite quickly in comparison to Bip it missed basic functions like: smart dnd (turn on watch dnd when it detects you're asleep) off or scheduled is available only, unlock screen - let's you unlock your screen with your watch.
Finding phone via watch feels primitive, you cannot cancel the phone ringing from the watch, you have to basically pick up the phone and turn off the alarm directly.
These are the issues that popped out first in my head. I thought paying more would get me additional features, not trading in for nice daily tools... I wonder if I am the only one who's missing the smart unlock feature, that let's you unlock the phone with connected via Bluetooth device. Tried to add it manually from the Bluetooth list, but got error saying to make sure that watch is close enough... What pisses me is that Bluetooth transmitter that costed like 2$ is proposed to be added as "trusted device". The whole app and watch UI feels like a this is an alpha version. End of my rant, if you can point me in the right direction, please do so I'm all ears. Thank you. BTW, I'm missing the unlocking feature most, as I am on galaxy s8, with weak finger print sensor.

For Stratos/Stratos 2 there is an unlock option. That should be available for Stratos 3 too.
Go to Amazfit app, Profile, Amazfit Stratos (select your watch), Unlock screen...

The Amazfit app verison is 3.7.0-play, maybe I am missing something?

No the option is clearly missing... Try the latest version (there is a new version 4 out). I assume that if it is disabled, a small hack of the app could enable it.

was able to update the app to 4.0.0, the option did not appear... nothing changed in that matter, do you have any hints so I could try to enable it?
Well I got response from the support:
Thank you for contacting Amazfit Customer Support. We apologize if the product caused you any inconvenience!
Unfortunately, the option you metioned is not supported for Stratos 3.
