Hi, does touch works on this model? My screen wakeup only if I standup my arm or press phisic button. When screen goes black I can re-wakeup only within 10/15sec. After that time there is no chance, is it normal?
Ciao, nope. It's not a problem but would be very usefull, touch is more confortable than button. If you tap the screen and it lights up would be a good feature, don't you think? Mi Smart Band 6 has this feature and it's very usefull. Ciao!

Yeah, it would be much better for me, that's why I said it's a problem. Do you plan to buy Mi Smart Band 6 instead of Amazfit Bip U?

I've go 2 mi band 6, but its display it's too small for me, but it's very usefull feature. I hope support can update software with this feature. Ciao.
Sure, I think wouldn't be a problem. Just now if you see you can wakeup you amazfit by touch. Do this, push the button, wait for display goes sleeping off and retouch it immediatly. If you wait (after sleep) more than 3 secs it doesn't wake up anymore (you must use the button to light it), but if you touch it within 2-3 second after sleep off it wakes up. This is a sleep preprogrammed time off. So they can revert this parameter and rewrite its behaviour.

Hi guys,
Just received my GTR and so far happy with it.
I have one question, I am using the lift wrist to view functionality but when I use this the watch only stays on for 4 seconds.
I have changed the screen on duration on the watch settings and while this works when pressing the wake button itself it does not make a difference to the lift wrist duration.
Is this normal?
Thanks!
Same here, probably bug.
Thanks!
Thanks for confirming!
I think it is design to prevent false wrist lifting detect.
You touch the screen to wake it when it turn off after that 4 seconds.
But it seems that we only able to touch to wake in this scenario.
I noticed that this watch cannot be wake by touch.
I like Amazfit GTR but so far only 2 major complains.
1. The response is kinda slow when lift wrist to wake it. And if it wont wake, it makes me feel like an idiot looking at an empty screen. lol!
2. The transition at watchface to left or right is laggy (accessing the app menu seems alright though).
and..... Long press to change watchface is laggy too. LOL!
Hi, yep I agree sometimes I do have to try it a couple of times - I have the same feeling too!
I know what you mean about trying to minimize false raises, but I think they should make the time the screen is on, configurable, like you can when pressing the top button.
Haven't really noticed a lag problem, but I tend to load watch faces from the app.
Today I received a new update. It seems this new update fixed above problem. After wrist lift, my screen stays on for the amount of time specified in screen-on duration
@quickfoxz - great news, what version are you on now and where are you based?
I am on 1.3.4.11 and it is saying there are no new updates.
Glad to hear it is fixed though!
Cheers.
Hello,
After the last update (1.3.4.14), I confirm that the wakefulness response time of the screen after wrist lift is much better, and the waking time corresponds to the time chosen in the options.
On the other hand, the lag during the face modification is always present, but it is a detail.
Same here. The response is much better.
Overall performance just got better.
Hi All,
I got this watch for it's design and look, when I read about an AOD function and the way people react to this function it was a plus to buy it.
Than I got confused about using a AOD. You can see the time with the AOD but as soon that you turn the wrist, the regular watch face turn on, so you barely see the AOD screen.
I tried to turn off the wrist action to keep only the AOD all the time, but it doens't stay on 24 hours, I notice that when I got to bed the AOD was turn off and will not turn on.
thank you.

The AOD will turn off if the watch detects there's no movement to save battery power. I think that the interval is 5 minutes.
Pressing a button will turn the watch on and then when screen goes off, the AOD will show up again.

That's what I figured out, it would be excellent if the AOD could turn on back by itself when you wake up . :good:
thank you Surf_Dude.
I wounder if their is a place were you can ask or discuss with Amazfit (Huami) for add-ons like this?

There is a forum where you can discuss/request things, but it's in Chinese and the moderator(s) is not very helpful, all that he does is to say people to check their private messages https://bbs.huami.com/
Accessed it with chrome(setting to translate Chinese to English), but can't login with mi account to post, I get an error. Guess outsiders aren't welcome.
Hello, i have the Amazfit GTR now about a week and i am very happy with it.
But i do found that the touch screen is also reacting to touches from my shirt or other clothe parts.
I already have had several times that my screen changed to other 'pages' without me touching it. I did find the option to lock the screen, but that also is quick disabled when touching the button with my wrist movement or looking at incoming messages.
Does anyone know a way to lock the screen automatically after 30 seconds or some other value?
Can Tasker be used for this? I did not find an option for this though.
I use the Notify&Fitness app and not the Amazfit app or Mi Fit app.

Hello, i hope you found an answer, because i am also searching the same option since beginning of the year.
I also use the N&F app, but if needed, i am willing to change the app if it can do the job.
Tasker would also be a great option, but i have not found a solution for it.
I trying to find the setting to turn off the screen while on running activity. I notice the screen is light on entire running activity until complete. I had already enable wrist lift option to turn on the screen when i need checking the running stats.
Anyway find the setting to turn it off or perhaps sleep mode. Thank you in advance.
There is no such option in Zepp application. I think there should be though, since having the screen on for ~2 hours is quite battery-consuming.
Yeh, that would be a nice option to have...
Yes hopefully they work on something with to turn off the screen. This version worst i compare to Amazfit Pace which have the easy lock function and the max heart rate alert.
But T-Rex really disappointed despite launched later time compare to Pace. First generation even better and seems T-Rex going backward.
Hi All,
I had a T-REX (non PRO) for 2 months and now I bought a T-REX PRO.
Other than a different UI and some more functions, I noticed two things:
- on the T-REX if I press the "BACK" button the screen turns off, if I press "BACK" on the T-REX PRO the app menu appears: is there a way to "program" the "BACK" button to turn off the screen?
- I often use the "countdown timer", on the T-REX the countdown keep running and the screen turns off after the "timeout screen" set and vibrates when the countdown reaches 0, on the T-REX PRO the screen stays on as long as the countdown runs: is there a way to turn off the screen while the countdown runs (as on the T-REX)?
Thank you, best regards.

In both situations: cover watch screen with your other hand and it will turn off immediately. T-Rex Pro is more similar to Stratos 3 than to regular T-Rex and some handy features are known by people that used all those watches.
I tried but...it worked just one time out of 5 tests...the other 4 the screen simply dimmed but didn't turn off.
You have to get used to it, there is no other way.
Maybe I found the issue....I tried to disable AOD and the "trick" works, if I enable AOD sometimes it switch back to the AOD watchface (and the countdown still runs), most of the times the screen simply dims.
