My Pace started to baaadly delay notifications It started about 2-3 weeks ago, it's irregular, about 1/3 notifications does not goes in-time. Delay is sometimes 10sec, sometimes 40 seconds or even a few minutes! The most annoying thing is that sometimes I have a call (not notified on Pace), I pickup, end it in 20 seconds, put my mobile on desk and...bam! - notification on Pace pops out. Very annoying.
I did a factory reset after WOS installed, nothing helped. I enabled screen-on if notification arrived on mobile, still no-go. Do you have any idea what's wrong with my setup?
I'm using Huawei Mate 9 EMUI 5 Nougat, Watch App v2.3.0/v2.3.2, Amazfit Pacefied rel 39 (v1.2.51) and WOS 2.6.0.12
You've asked for an idea, so: turn off Wi-Fi on your phone, and observe if it gets better.

Thanks for tips, but unfortunately does not help at all :/ It looks like watch app service is delayed somehow....
Are you sure that Amazfit app is not being killed while it's in background? Some phones have strict settings that would kill non system apps in background to save battery, even disable Bluetooth. Unless the watch has a Bluetooth problem, the culprit is the phone. Can you pair the watch to other phone for tests? Did you change anything on your phone at the time the notifications started to lag?
Hello I am facing the same problem. My phone is the Huawei nova with android nougat and emui 5
Hello here,
I’ve got an issue with my notifications. I used stratos 1619 (2.3.5.0) with Amazfit app 2.5.2.1 and my phone is Honor 9 Lite with EMUI and Android 8.0.0.
Most of the times, i got all my notifications as I configured by settings. But sometimes, some are missing… exemple : in the same whatsapp group conversation, I well receive on my watch message 1, 2, 3 and 5, but it misses the number 4…
For other apps it is the same, I can receive notifcation one time then the next one is missing (GMAIL, facebook etc.). It’s like random...
I tried to put on "disconnect alert" on the watch and I observe this alert popping sometime (like 4 - 5 times) on my watch when doing nothing. Sometime just after receiving one notification.
I tried to put off wifi (same issues)
Is there any bluetooth configuration I can solve ?
Someone with honor phone is facing this prob also? or not??
I already tried to restart phone/watch, unpair/pair, clear bluetooth cache, and always the same issues...
Thank you for helping
Hello, everyone!
I have a small problem and I really welcome any suggestions! When I try to sync a new watch face (either mi fit or gearbest) it takes sometimes 3-5 minutes and even only takes it once out of 3-4 tries. I 'fixed' it somehow by turning off and back on the Bluetooth connection and right after connecting, the watchface sync takes about 10 secs (waaaaay better) but as soon as i try another one it goes back to slow sync. Although my temporary fix (on/off BT) speeds up the sync it takes about a minute or 2 to disconnect and recconect with the device, so it's not really a fix that i can rely upon. I have an older ver of Android 4.4.2 but don't think that's the problem. I forgot to mention that same thing happens with big files (like 30-40k .bin) or small ones (15-20k), so I don't think is the filesize.
How long it takes the sync for you guys?
Thank you all!

Have to reboot it to sync. I let it go by itself but after 15 minutes, I did reboot. Also have to reboot if I lose Bluetooth connection. My wife bought me this watch thinking it would save money from the Apple Watch I wanted. Very clunky and too much time spent for such a simple data gathering. This was a bad purchase.
I use the Notify & Fitness app and loading a watchface takes just 10 - 30 seconds, depending on the size of the file.
I can load watchfaces without having to reset Bluetooth. The app requires Android 4.3+, so it should work for you.
I have had an Amazfit Bip and I have a problem with notifications on the device.
I get a message on whatsapp, for example, and the beep keeps repeating many times. Sometimes it repeats 2 to 3 times the moment I receive the 1st message, after a few minutes, I get the same warning again, after 1 or 2 hours it repeats again! I hate this! I just want to receive a notification and not keep getting warnings about the same message (which has not yet been read).
Grateful.

If you're running Android, the Notify & Fitness app has settings that display only the last notification instead of the entire notification chain.
They recommend turning it on for "chat/messages/grouped notifications (suggested for Whatsapp, Telegram, email, ...)"
I don't know if the MiFit or AmazFit apps have a similar setting.
Hello all, I updated my iPhone to iOS 16 beta and my notifications are not working at all. I know there was a fix coming as an update for the Zepp app which I did (7.1.5) but I am still not able to get anything from my phone into my watch. Notifications, calls, nothing at all. I tried submitting a ticket to support but got no response.
Any help is appreciated, thanks.
Exactly the same problem here. iOS 16 (not beta) and Zepp 7.1.5 (was on Zepp 7.0.3 and it was the same). I have an old Bip in my desk drawer that I tried to activate instead of my Bip S Lite and it actually did receive notifications, until it very soon didn't anymore.
It also seems the watch disconnects itself from Bluetooth from time to time and won't reconnect until I open the Zepp app and do a sync.
I have a watch face that indicates if BT is connected or not, so that's how I know when it's disconnected.
So same problem on both Bip and Bip S Lite. And it seems those aren't the only models affected. There are reports coming from here and there.

Same thing is happening with the Bluetooth too. It gets disconnected and it does not reconnect at all.
Yeah I have seen reports from other watch users and some of them have already been able to fix it but I have tried everything so far with no success.
I have also tried factory resetting the watch(es), forgetting the Bluetooth bindings and uninstalling/reinstalling the Zepp app many times, but to no avail.
EDIT: Have now submiitted 3 reports via the Feedback function in the app. Each one more detailed than the previous.
The latest one:
Watch not receiving notifications and constantly disconnecting from BT.
iOS16, Zepp 7.0.3 and 7.1.5
-Problems started with iOS 16, I think.
-Notifications for Phone calls, WhatsApp, Gmail and SMS. None of them work.
-Watch keeps disconnecting from BT and will not reconnect until I open the Zepp app and do a sync.
-Will not reconnect BT automatically after being out of range.
-I have tried every setting in the App itself and in the phone's settings.
-I tried my old Bip watch and it did show a notification, but only once. Then it too stopped receiving them.
-I have factory resetted both watches many times and uninstalled/reinstalled the Zepp app a couple of times.
-Have made the phone forget the Bluetooth binding many times.

I have also done all that and nothing has worked.
Mine started on iOS 16 beta before 16.1 like the update before it and it broke. First time I updated to the beta it was working fine but then the one right before 16.1 that’s where everything started.
Got an update to the Zepp app on my iPhone yesterday (v. 7.1.6) but it doesn't seem to have made any difference. Still no notifications.
I'm beginning to think the problems have something to do with how iOS16 handles Bluetooth connections. The bug is either in iOS16 or in the watch Firmware (although other Amazfit models are affected too).
I base my asumptions on the fact that the watch has trouble reconnecting to BT after being out of range or after it's been restarted. If I restart the phone, however, the watch usually gets connected.
So if it is the phone that initiates the connection, it usually works. But if the watch itself tries to connect, then it doesn't work.
But then again, the notifications do not work even if I keep the Bluetooth window open on my phone and the watch is 100% connected when a message arrives. Strange.
There is also something weird when I make the iPhone forget the BT pairing to the watch. It usually immediately rediscovers the watch and tries to pair again. This happens even if the watch is set to NOT be discoverable.
Just got another Zepp update in the App Store. 7.1.7.
Still no cigar.
There will be no more Huami watches in this household.

My apologies for my absence, I am not getting any notifications and honestly lost hope on this. I understand that this is something that might take time but 3 updates later, no real resolution or acknowledgment of what is actually happening.
I also believe that this issue has to do with the connection that the app has with the iOS16 beta since it started after an update. I got beta going, and everything was going smoothly, received an update and everything went south after that with no success or real connection whatsoever.
I just updated the app to 7.1.7 as you did and still the same, the only difference is that it seems the connection is more stable as it has not been disconnected yet and still shows connected without any issues.
I have not encountered the situation you are experiencing in that even if you unpair the watch the phone forces the connection again.
Indeed, I think this will be my last Huami watch. My wife is dying to update to iOS16 but I have warned her multiple times not to since it will break the connection.
Right now I just feel I have a regular watch that I have to charge in order to see the time...
It’s not the iOS beta. I was on the official 16.0 to 16.0.2 and the problem was there. Jumped on the 16.1 beta to try to solve it, but no luck there either.
Threw my Amazfit in my desk drawer and bought myself a Withings Scanwatch.
I finally am able to receive my iMessages on my Amazfit GTR4. On the Notifications in iPhone, go to Messages, and make sure in the Lock Screen Appearance-->Show Previews-> When Unlocked. Mine had changed to Never, as soon as I changed that and synced the Zepp app, now my messages are going through to my watch! Just thought I'd share what worked for me.
Seems that the Zepp app version 7.2.1 has fixed the notifications on my watch. They took their time, I might say.
...aaand then I updated my phone to iOS 16.1.1 and the watch (Bip S Lite) stopped notifying again.
EDIT: My Amazfit Bip on the other hand seems to be notifying just fine. Think I'll be using that one for now.
It definitely seems like the Bluetooth on my Bip S Lite is broken somehow. It won't automatically reconnect after it's been out of range/disconnected. I have to manually open the app to connect it again. And still no notifications.
I've contacted both the seller of the watch and Amazfit. Let's see if they have anything to say about it. I'm using the old Bip for now.
Dusted off my old Bip S Lite and paired it to my phone (or rather reactivated it, since I never did unpair it). To my surprise, it updated its firmware (to 2.1.1.86). Will try it and see if the notification issue is gone.
