Upgraded from Bip to stratos 3 - dissapointed - missing basic features in Stratos - Amazfit

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.

[Dev] What's your App request?

Hi everyone!
Developer of Energy Bar here. I recently got the Amazfit Pace, and am pretty excited to make some cool Apps for the watch.
As of now, two ideas:
Access phone contacts and dial them directly from the watch (hear & talk via the bluetooth earphones connected to the phone.)
A new notification system, which will let you read individual messages (Apps like WhatsApp have some of the notifications bundled.) And also ability to reply from watch (extremely small keyboard though.)
I would like to hear your ideas, please suggest something that may benefit all the watch users in general. I wouldn't be able to fulfil any custom App request as of now.
Your ideas may go as crazy as you would like, I will let you know the extend to which it would be technically feasible. The only thing I want to re-emphasize is that, the idea needs to be something that will benefit all the watch users in general.
Also, I do plan to make majority of Apps' feature free to the community, but to be able to afford enough time to make a lot of Apps which leverages full potential of the watch - I would need support through in-app purchases. I would like to know if you would be interested in subscribing to some of the essential Apps or a pack of Apps?
Hello. I have a new watches. I am missing several functions. Posibility to display level of phone battery on watchface, and indication about unread notification(s). I would also aperciate posibility to bring sport activity to background and paralel usage of other applications. However I am afraid that these functions will be dependent on system services.

Displaying battery level of phone and number of unread notifications sounds good!
But I wonder what's the specific use case of running some other App on the watch while sport activity is running? Could you please elaborate?

I would like to record just my touristic trips. I would like to use the watches normally, during the trip - checking weather for example.... I have used Sony SmartWatch 2 for 3 years - I will have some other ideas for sure later when I will have more experiences with Amazfit...
GoPro control app, ios/android music control app, phone book and dial app with headphones, voice recorder - there is mic built in the watch... and continuum transfunctioner Zoltan!
Being able to reply to Text/Gmail messages is #1 for me. Second - remote control of phone's music app.
Thank you for starting this project, I really appreciate your efforts. This watch has one of the best looking design and a decent hardware. I think file manager and ablity to install apk from the watch and an app to push files from phone to the watch would be beneficial.

In earlier fw version was​ even worse. During sport activity, literally you couldn't see time on the, well, watch! Then they added it on the top, as well as battery status. Both too small but at least.
I agree with you, watch is missing multitasking. Going to home screen, using it regularly and track activity in the background. However, I doubt that op can do that without source of the fw.

By recording touristic trips do you mean activating one of the sports activity? Like Walk? It is possible to enable such a solution, but how good that solution would be, depends on a more defined use case. I will put this on a lower priority list, will check the feasibility a bit later.

GoPro control app - have to know if a niche among the niche of Amazfit pace users exist, if there is enough demand - will develop.
Music control, dial - Yes, nice ideas.
Voice Recorder - This App apparently works, if it's missing something specific to our watch, let me know.

That was one of the first thoughts I had, still checking if it's technically feasible to provide such a functionality without root.

Apart from checking on time, do you feel that there is a real need for multitasking while the watch is tracking one of your sports activity? Or is it more like, nice to have thing? If the need of multitasking has some great application/use case, I would like to hear about it - as in, what else would you access while actively participating in a sport?

Well, as mentioned before to use other features of the watch, time, date, weather, notifications​... Notification, for example, will show up during activity and then disappear. No way to check it again. Music player is also not available during some activities. No way to check steps as well.
Of course it's not deal breaker but other watches have that feature and would be nice to have normal watch skin with activity in the background. Especially during walking, sightseeing... Watch can track up to 35h, after all.

In my opinion, it would be nice to have an app that tells you when your watch loses the connection.
In fact, that was the reason why i bought my first smartwatch, a Sony 2. I was afraid to lose my phone . And it's a pity the actual amazfit doesn't give you this option.
Thanks in advance!!!
I'd say that Huami have purposely restricted background apps in order to maximise battery life.
As far as app requests go: for me it's a podcast app, that's active while running.
My guess is that the easiest way to do this would be that the podcasts would download into the music folder and we could just use the default music player to play them.
Remote camera control, useful for selfies
There are many 5k/10k trainer apps on android/iOS. Is it possible to port one or create some simple to run in background while running activity?
Right now Im using 5k Run-Couch to 5K Walk/Jog interval training. Something similar would be great, no need for some fancy design.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.vandersw.fivekrun
In connection with headphones there could be some beep sound on each interval, no need for vibration.
An editor of watchfaces like those that exist for Android wear would be great, since the edition of watchfaces for this watch is complicated, and there's not much editing freedom...

Porting would essentially mean modifying another developer's work without a permission. So, whatever it is, have to be built from scratch.
Running an App simultaneously with the running activity on foreground may not work well, both the Apps would have to keep tracking your distance etc. So, am afraid that won't be a good idea for now.
But I plan to facilitate multitasking, so that may help in one or the other way.

Connect Amazfit multiple devices

I wonder if its possible to connect amazfit to multiple devices imagine i have my phone that is connect to amazfit at the moment but i would like to connect to my tablet to .
Is this possible ???
What Amazfit device are you talking about? The watch/Pace? Probably not, because the Amazfit Watch app requires reading a QR code for pairing, and it's not trivial to get it shown after it's already paired. But why would you like to do it? You can try and tell us, after you find out how to show the QR code after the match is paired. And if you explain why you'd want this, maybe there's something else you can do to communicate the watch to two devices...
no.
I have it connected to 2 phones.
If I remember right I just installed the Amazfit app on second phone and logged in with my account.

You sir are right. Thank you very much!
It can but you are a bit limited in options I think.
You can connect it to a phone and BT headset at the same time (Stratos at least). I haven't tried to connect it to many other devices because what's the use?

I don't have my Amazfit watch anymore, so can't test.
I'm using a Fitbit Ionic now, but miss my Amazfit sometimes..
Watchdroid app can be used for notifications, cant that be used on multiple devices?
in case you try to connect to android and iphone same time with amazfit app stratos watch you get a notification to uninstall in android first
To summarise:
1. You can connect two devices to the same phone, at least as long as they are different models. Here is a video with Pace and Stratos:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zBmSwKN058E
2. You cannot connect the same device to more than one phone. As a work around, you can try to use Amazfit app on one phone and WatchDroid on another (or WD on both, maybe it works). Be aware that it might decrease battery life.
Original question in thread again. Can you connect Amazfit Stratos to an android tablet or IPad instead of your phone? Why? Screen too small on phone for my eyesight.

If you can install and login to Amazfit Watch app, then you can (the tablet must have Bluetooth 4.1 - aka BLE - and a camera, of course, or you can use a workaround to transfer the watch to your account on the tablet).

Anyone helping building a new companion app to send data to the Stratos/Pace Watch?

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.

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)

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?

[Amazfit Bip] update new features

Hi guys, sorry if it was already asked, I searched the forum and I wasn't able to find an answer.
Is there a place where to see what changes the various updates made to the Bip?
Today I've received my device and Mi Fit app (iOS) updated to 1.0.86 but now the Mi Fit app (Android this time, I was trying to install a personalized watchface) decided it was time to do a new one (it's taking a lot of time, so I've no idea which version is getting installed at the moment).
I'm just curious to see what's new.
Thanks.
What to see a change log for MiFit? App store lists changelog for apps, and Android online stores list some of the changes, like this one:
https://apkpure.com/mi-fit/com.xiaomi.hm.health

Thanks lfom, but I meant the change log for Amazfit Bip firmware. Just to see what was improved or changed.
Update is finished, now I've the 1.1.14 version. I don't know if it's too new but I wasn't able to pair it to last version of Notify & Fitness for Amazfit, so no personalized watchfaces for now.
I see... I am not sure, but I think all updates for Pace are get from the manufacture's site in Chinese then translated. Maybe someone knows if there are announcements for Bip versions as well...
Did it eventually got an airplane mode ? (Check settings on watch)

How do you schedule the DND function on the Amazfit Bip? I only see 2 options: ON/OFF or AUTO based on if it thinks you're asleep.
I'd love to set DND following a schedule, like I do it on my iPhone, e.g. DND on from 11pm-8am.

Amazifit-App 3.0.0-play Holy crap

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)

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.

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.

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.

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

If you want to see battery level you have to go in profile section now, actually as was before, where is all watch faces, alarms, weather and ect.
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.

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.
