Hi there. I just bought the Amazfit GTR. This is my 3rd Amazfit watch, I have both the Pace and the Stratos. Had no problem with those, but with GTR, no matter what I do, I can't make the notifications to work on the watch. I get the notifications for calls, but that's it. No notifications for sms or other apps, despite activating and selecting them in the Amazfit app. I unpaired and paired the watch again, I rebooted the watch, made sure the watch is connected to the Amazfit app and that the app is running on the phone, but no luck. My phone is a Samsung Galaxy Note 8. Anyone else encountered this issue or have any tips on what to do to make notifications work?

Try resetting Amazfit access to notifications (turn it off then back on).
Managed to make it work by resetting the watch to factory settings and uninstalling/reinstalling Amazfit app.

Hi everybody, since one month the Amazfit stops syncing after a while and the notifications stop working. When I reboot the Amazfit the app syncs again and everything works fine but after some hours it stops syncing and showing notifications again. I've tried stoping amazfit app, switch off and on the wifi, bt, airplane mode, even restarting the phone but the only thing working is rebooting the Amazfit.
I'm becoming desesperate, anybody with some clue?
Thankyou

Hi, I had similar problem when change my android one phone with a new xioami (miui8) phone, I solved the problem by forcing amazfit app run in background (in miui task manager)
Hello! yesterday I factory reset the my watch, and didnt upload backed activity from amazfit to the watch, so now the watch is "clean". Til now it seems to work ok! No sync problems. I hope it's fixed.
Hello,
I'm testing Amazfit Bip since yesterday. To receive notifications I'm using Notify & Fitness for Amazfit. It works fine, but problem appears after reconnecting the watch. I mean - Amazfit losts the connection (for example if it's too far from the phone), somebody calls / sends a message, then Amazfit receives the connection back with the phone and shows no new notification. When it's connected again I don't get notifications for messages/calls received when connection was lost. The same is with Mi Fit application. Do you have any idea how to solve it?

What firmware is on your watch?

V0.1.1.36
Only using third party apps, mostly paid ones. Some can detect that you lost connection and send the notification once the watch is connected. For instance, Notify & Fitness on PlasyStore.
you can try alert bridge on playstore, which is also free. Is not customizable as notify o similar apps (which however need to be paid), but if you don't pretend too much on notifications side, it does what you're looking for. give it a try
Hey,
I've been using Amazfit Verge for about three months. Everything was ok until yesterday when some of the notifications stopped working. I didn't change anything in the settings. It stopped by itself. I still get notification when someone rings or the alarm clock is set but all application notifications such as Messenger, Facebook od Telegram do not work. I tried to unpair and pair the smartwatch again, uninstall and install the Amazfit application but the result is still the same. Thanks for the help.
Watch model and firmware version? Phone model, OS and Amazfit app version?

A1811, latest firmware and amazfit app . Mi 9 global eea miui 11. For now, the problem disappeared after resetting the whole phone to factory settings.
Amazfit has an option to test notifications: if they work but you don't get notifications from other apps, then you must reset Amazfit app permission to access notifications in phone settings. If the test notifications don't work then something is wrong in the connection between 0hine and watch (make sure watch isn't in DND/Silent mode).
And today it has happened again. Notifications stopped coming to the watch again, and nothing changed in the settings.
Trying to avoid to loose my phone, with Amazfit App 3.6.2 is there any "simple" way to have have a connection lost alert/notification when phone is away?
Before with my Amazfit Bip and Mi Fitt App i have that option there on the App, now with GTR and Amazfit App i don't find that option.
Anyone know how to set it ?
I also use Amazfit Tools App but even there i can't find that option.
Regards
And T-REX does not have such an option.
Very uncomfortable
Hmmm, i don't recall seeing it in the Amazfit app.
But i do know that Notify&fitness does have that option and it does work.
I have used it, but stopped using it, it took to much of the battery as i regularly are at the edge of the connection between phone and watch and it keeps vibrating
I've been using an Amazfit Bip together with the Mi Fit app for a long time without any problems. The Bip hardly ever lost connection to the phone. Then I bought an Amazfit Bip S and as the Mi Fit app does not support it, I had to use the Amazfit app. I recognized that the Bip S permanently lost bluetooth connection to the phone, no matter what settings I changed. So I thought it would be a problem of the Bip S and bought a normal Bip again. But same problem... if the phone does not lie directly on the table, most of the time Bip has no bluetooth connection. Even if the phone is in its case on my belt, the Bip loses connection.
So it must have something to do with the Amazfit app, I guess. Somewhere I read that if you uninstall and reinstall it, Bluetooth connection problems may be gone. But if I uninstall the app, I lose all data, so before I do that I try to investigate what could be the problem.
The phone is a Blackview BV9700 Pro. I already cleared all data and cache of the Bluetooth app. I restarted the phone. I turned Bluetooth off and on again. I turned the option for a permanent notification in the Amazfit app on and off, makes no difference.
Can anyone confirm that the Amazfit app has a bad Bluetooth connection compared to the Mi Fit app? Could the problem be caused because both apps were installed at the same time at the beginning? I had Mi Fit installed, installed Amazfit and because the Bip was recognized by both apps I uninstalled Mi Fit and kept only Amazfit.

Hello,
Few things:
- I would recommend you to use only one App, AmazFit or MiFit at a time. I guess AMazFit is preferable depending on the watch you have. Unpair from one app and uninstall the app you don't want to use
- if you uninstall and reinstall the Amazfit or MiFit app with same credentials, Mi account or with mail/phone number, you should recover your data saved and you won't loose all your history. Maybe the one from the current day, I think. I jumped from MiFit to Amzfit with same account with no problem, recovering data for many years
- concerning the bluetooth, not sure what OS your are using, iOS or Android. You could check in the Amazfit or Mi Fit app properties if the OS is not using "battery saver" functions. Sometimes, by default, the battery saving is in "restricted mode" which can affect connections like wifi/bluetooth to save power. Try to see if you have this battery saving function ON and set to "no restrictions" - at least this is what I do on my Android phone.

Yeah - as I wrote I uninstalled Mi Fit and only use Amazfit now.

Hm, now as you said it... the Amazfit app also loaded the data from the Mi account.

The phone uses Android 9. The Amazfit app is not restricted by any battery saving modes as I put it on "Not optimized" just like the Mi Fit app before.
