Hi,
do you know, is there some option or application via which it could be possible to disable notification for some whatsapp groups?
I had that possibility for my Mi Band 2 via application Mi Band Tools, her is the guideline on their web:
http://help.mibandtools.com/knowledge_base/topics/disable-notifications-for-whatsapp-groups
Now, I am looking to have this possibility on the PACE as well ... since I don't wont to have million of notification from some particular groups (Whats app has silent option for the phone but notifications are visible)

Mute the group in whatsapp???

In whatsapp I have 2 options, per group or per contact:
- mute
- disable notification
My preferred setup for some groups (many messages, not so important) is to mute group but still to get notification on the main screen of the mobile phone.
Question is, how those messages will be handled by PACE watch?
Do I have possibility to have notifications on the phone, but not to have notifications on the PACE (per group or contact)?
Do I have possibility not to have vibration for this specific case ?
if you check link above, you will see that this custom application can do filtering between phone and Mi Band (based on internal settings, .. you can put some filters) ... I just wondering do we have some for PACE?
I need to manage that for my Pace watch as well.
Groups were ruining so much my experience that I had to disable whatsapp notifications at all

Correct, due to so many messages in one group I disabled whatsapp notifications on the watch.
Filtering is must if we still need to get them ...
Hope that someone will check this post and get idea about problem and solution how to solve it.
Notify & Fitness for Amazfit
hm ... but does it work correctly with PACE .... ?
I guess that I need to disable notification in the official application first...
need to test it, THANKS!!!
Dear all:
I just bought an AmazFit Bip and despite the watch is really good, i have an issue with the notifications.
I have tested the following issue with both MIFIT and NOTIFY & FITNESS apps from Google play.
The issue is that for most applications ( whataspp and others) when i receive a notification on the phone ,it sends it to the watch....... This is ok but, instead of simply receiving that notification on the watch, the watch start to show OLD notifications ( up to 6 ro 7) before showing the current one.
I have a samsung s8 Plus and I have disabled the "app monitor" to avoid the system killing the application in the background but it does nothing....
Similar behavior with the Notify & Fitness app.... Any Idea why this is happening..... Thanks
It's not just me! I just started wearing my Bip today and the notifications were driving me crazy. I'm running Oreo on an Asus ZenFone 3 so it's not a Samsung-related problem. I'm hoping it's a bug in MiFit that might be fixed in a future release.
Same here as well. This causes me to grab my phone and address or dismiss notification right away so I don't have to keep receiving them on the Bip everytime I get a new notification on the phone. Pretty annoying indeed. Fingers crossed that it will be addressed.
God, I'm so glad I'm not the only one. When you have multiple people messaging at once you CAN'T turn them off because it won't let you on the DND screen. It just vibrates for minutes... .Crazy. Hopefully they fix this.
Thanks God I am not the only one..... This was driving me crazy... Please HELPPPPPP
Yes its iritating..does anyone ever look "tools and amazfit" on playstore? It looks promising
Turn off app and SMS notifications in Mi Fit and use the free Alert Bridge app from the Play Store instead. It's much more customizable than Mi Fit and works perfectly.
Hi all.... It seems that with Alert Bridge app. the situation was resolved for some hours...... However now every time I receive a notification, the watch shows first the previous notifications received ......... before it shows the latest notification..
I do not understand why the watch cannot show only the latest notification received......
PLEASE HELP
Hello
Here my findings over the last few days...
I have an Samsung S8 Plus. What I have done is to deactivate all application notifications in the mifit and start monitoring each of them individually
1.) Whatapp is a mess and does not work with MIFIT . Instead use AlerBridge
2.) the application MESSAGING ( SMS) from Samsung should be deactivated from the MIFIT application. Use the Messaging from MIFIT app, but do not activate messaging in the app list.... This created a lot of issues and double text to me.
Since the last 2 days, it is working for me with almost no issues.
hope it helps

IMO Nofity and Fitness APP does a better job than MI Fit on everything. I completely uninstalled MI Fit app.

Exactly the same for me !
I tried Notify & Fitness and uninstalled Mi Fit and it seems that my Bip was not connected to the phone without Mi Fit. Am I missing something?

I think you need to unbind it in the mifit app and rebind it with the new one.

Since i don't use the Mi fit app anymore, i am not sure, but i remember that there is an option in the menu, to remove the watch from the app, OR you have to click in the menu on the watch and then remove it.
After that, in the N&F app, click on the Repair iin the menu.
Based on the OP description, I think I have a slightly different problem and wonder if anyone else has my problem. I don't receive old notifications again, but it will notify me "endlessly" (it eventually stops, but not with consistency). It usually happens with Hangouts and most often when I have multiple Hangouts messages that aren't dismissed or the notifications read. It's more common with group threads, but definitely happens with one unread, undismissed message notification that is a single person (not group thread). I usually have to both dismiss the notification and mark it as read, and then I'll be able to scroll to the Clear button, though I still have to scroll past the same problem message 10+ times before I can get to it. I can't usually reach the Clear option when this occurs without doing those two things. It isn't every time, but is very annoying and happens often enough to be very irritating. Does this happen to anyone?
I'm on a Pixel 2 running 8.1. Not everyone mentioned their OS, but it seems that Oreo has been common to those noting problems in this thread so far.

Yup, I have exactly the same issue. OnePlus 5 running custom ROM (Oreo). I am going to try the BridgeAlert app.
Does anyone else with a Pixel 2, has the same issue that I have regarding the "hang up" call button doing the same thing as "ignore" when on an incoming call?
Cheers

Do you have Oreo on phone? It seems to be related to Oreo, check other threads about the same issues, not only using BIP but Pace/Stratos too.
Lovely new Amazfit GTR 42mm (International version) arrived from gearbest this week. I’m having serious issues getting it to simply receive notifications with the notification text (e.g first few lines of an sms / WhatsApp / email). Here’s what I’ve tried to resolve:
1) Phone has Amazfit app installed.
2) Bought “Tools & Amazfit” : doesn’t pair with GTR42 even with manual entry of Bluetooth address. Uninstalled.
3) Installed “Notify & Fitness for Amazfit”. Does pair with watch but not able to get it to show notifications with text. Uninstalled.
4) Installed “Tools & Mi Band”. Same issue as 3 above. Uninstalled.
With all above attempts, I’ve tried switching on notifications on both the 3rd party app and the Amazfit app, notifications on one app only...nothing seems to work. They are connecting but often the notification just says “message received, view on phone”.
Anyone else having same issues? Firmware on watch is: v0.0.9.26
Thanks, Nemov
I have managed to get SMS notifications to show text by only installing the Amazfit app (no 3rd party app installed), and restarting phone and watch, but I receive 2 notifications for the same SMS!...annoying. Tried turning on one or the other notification on/off toggles in the Amazfit app info section but that makes no difference.

I'm on the same 42mm international version. Same firmware version, and I'm not seeing that I'm afraid. Single notifications for most.
Same Amazfit app I presume. I connected it to the prev account I had for the BIP and all that came through fine.
Texts are fine, emails from gmail fine. I am getting two different notifications from outlook, but when I check on the phone for some reason there's two notification lines for each email on the phone so the watch is simply replicating that.
Same with me. I have GTR code name A1909 with firmware 0.0.9.26 (Only chinese UI, doesn't support UTF8 notifications).

Hmmm well at least I am not the only one! My GTR model is A1910, but firmware is the same as yours. I've just been living with it... I found that neither of the popular apps "Tools & Amazfit" or "Tools and MiBand" did anything to improve the notifications, in fact "Tools and Amazfit" doesn't even recognise the GTR, even if I manually enter the bluetooth MAC details. So both useless at the moment for me and a waste of £3 per app. Maybe they will update soon to speak with GTR properly.
Thanks @maxihod - glad to hear at least some are working fine! Makes no sense though. I was wondering if it has something to do with my phone (I have an Xperia XZ2 Compact) - it shouldn't make a difference but its the only variable I can think of.

Hi @nemov.. I'm on a Mate 10 pro. I also purchased the Tools and Amazfit app for my previous BIP that I had.
I notice that that app is only for use with the BIP, MiBand and Cor.. all of which use the Mi App rather than Amazfit App. When I re-installed that app it was then also asking me to re-install the Mi Band app as well, so I guess no support for the GTR in there just yet,
Hello guys,
do you use some app for better notifications on Amazfit GTS? I tried 'Notify & Fitness for Amazfit', but it consumes to much battery on both phone and the watch....

I have the international version of the GTS. The Amazfit official app is horrible for notifications, it repeats notifications, if in whatsapp you get a lot of messages it sends the text, then the number of unread messages, text again, number of messages and so on. On the watch you get a complete mess. It doesn't support romanian characters or smileys, for unknown characters you get a question mark and smileys don't show up at all.
Notify&Fitness doesn't work for me, I've bought it but notifications don't get through. Manual tests in the app work ok, but it's not catching incoming notifications, I've provided all the permissions required, granted access to notifications, tried with or without amazfit app, nothing works. I have a Xiaomi Mi A2 with Android one. I keep it to push custom fonts or FW on the BIP
Amazfit tools works really well, notifications are pushed almost instantly, it supports transliteration and it replaces romanian characters with english version. User interface is intuitive and easier to configure. Sadly it has a huge bug in my opinion, it doesn't push complete notifications text. Longer notifications are truncated, it only shows one screen worth of text on the GTS, although in my tests both official Amazfit app and Notify&Fitness can push a lot longer text and you can scroll it on the watch. I've been using this app continuously for the past 2 years, first with the Amazfit BIP and now with the Amazfit GTS so I really can't comment on battery usage. In android battery management the app doesn't show as a big consumer, around 3% of the entire consumption throughout the day.
The GTS should be delivered today from Amazon and I will set up with Notify & Fitness / not Amazfit app. The N&F app looks good and want to avoid Amazfit app altogether.
Q: Did the Dec. 1 app update address your issues?

The Notify & Fitness app is good. Here are my observations on N&F and Amazfit app.
1. N&F serves a a good alternative for the absurdly poor Amazfit app.
2. The Amazfit app's tiny font is a terrible choice when there is so much white, empty space available.
--- Feature request submitted to Amazfit - poorly written english auto-response returned.
3. N&F has too many features if that is possible. Hours of tweaking (no drugs) finally got it to a state of usability.
Q: Can someone please explain how syncing works? Does the N&F app sync from Amazfit app or from the GTS?
Q: Can I uninstall the Amazfit app?. There is conflicting info in different sections of N&F app.
FYI - I am not using N&F notifications or Amazfit notifications for that matter. I only want to use the Fitness features in N&F.
Thanks in advance. If I missed another thread with this information, let me know.

v0.0.8.07 is the version on this GTS.
It took me ~2.5 hours of troubleshooting Samsung Note9 bluetooth issues to get the firmware and library updated.
is it possible to reply to notifications? I don't own the GTS but I'm looking forward in buying it

Allegedly you can do Quick Reply (Replying with a preset of phrases) through the Notify and Fitness App, but i tested it, it's far from stable though.
Hi guys...
I have found many people complaining about Receiving notifications form 3rd party apps like WhatsApp.. etc.. In Amazfit GTS..
Are those issues still exist ?

I don't have issues, but I use AeX (https://myamazfit.ru/threads/aex-amazfit-extended-modifikacija-amazfit.1164/)
Hi,
I'm surprised to see that the option Deconnection reminder alert on the Amazfit app (called now Zepp) has disappeared from the options applicable to the GTS smartwatch.
I have also a BIP smartwatch and this option still exists in the Zepp app menu.
Have you an idea how to fix this issue for the GTS?
