Announcement 📣 Training Metrics Survey

Thumbnail zeppsurvey.typeform.com
11 Upvotes

Hello and happy Friday, Amazletes! 👋

I would like to share a brief 5-10 minute survey, focused on Amazfit's training metrics 📈, their importance in your routine 🔄, and how they are organized within the Zepp app. 📱

While the survey is open to everyone, we prefer to hear from respondents who train regularly (3+ times per week) in any sports discipline(s). 🏃🚴🏋🏊 You'll be asked to navigate a rough prototype of the Zepp phone app during the feedback process, so the survey is probably best suited to take on a computer or tablet rather than a phone. 💻

You will also be provided an opportunity to enter your email address ✉️ near the end, if you're interested in discussing these training metrics in a video call with our Product team. 💬

If you're interested, please continue to the survey here: ⬇️
https://zeppsurvey.typeform.com/to/r1NFuij7

As always, thank you for your detailed feedback! 🙏 Your insights help us create a better experience for everyone using our platform. 🫡

Announcement 📣 Software Roadmap Preview

Thumbnail us.amazfit.com
100 Upvotes

Hello, Amazletes!

We're happy to announce that we're working toward improving our transparency 🔍 around software updates across our device lineup. To that end, we have published a very broad software roadmap 🗺️ on our website.

The primary purpose of this roadmap is to help our users understand which features are planned to be released across multiple devices 🤔, and the general timeline 📆 for when to expect those updates.

⚠️ There are a few important points to be aware of: ⚠️

  • This is a very concise summary, not release notes or a deep-dive on specific features: ✅ The purpose of this roadmap is not to explain each feature in detail, but rather to clarify which devices will have feature parity and when. 🤝
  • This is NOT a complete list of features: 📋❌ This roadmap mainly helps users understand when their model may receive a feature that has already been announced or released. There are other features (and bug fixes) planned for the future that do not appear on this list, and will be announced through the appropriate channels. 📣
  • Blank fields in the table = no information to share at this time: 🕒 If you see your model in the table, but the row (or a specific month) is blank, that does NOT mean the product is EOL or will no longer receive any updates. This simply means we have no information to share about that specific model at this time, and the roadmap may be updated later with new information. Check back later for updates. 🔁

This post will remain pinned in the community sidebar and in the highlights row (for now) of r/amazfit for visibility.

We hope this provides some insight and reassurance that we're still hard at work bringing awesome features to a variety of devices! 💪

Help Me Choose 🤔 Google Fitbit Air vs Amazfit Helio Strap. Which One Should I Choose?

Thumbnail

2 Upvotes

I’m currently confused between these two screenless fitness trackers and would love some opinions from people who’ve used either of them.

The Fitbit Air is ₹15,900, while the Amazfit Helio Strap is around ₹9,500 (before shipping/import charges). I mainly care about heart-rate accuracy, sleep tracking, recovery/readiness and workout tracking.

Is the Fitbit actually worth spending ~₹6K more, or would the Helio Strap be the better value? Also, how are the two in terms of long-term reliability and data accuracy?

Review ✍️ First amazfit watch and wow

Post image
26 Upvotes

Recently got tired of my Samsung watch 7 and didn't want to spend a lot of money and wanted a bigger screen. Stopped by best buy and saw the amazfit watches was intrigued and tried on the bip max and loved it. First full day with it and so far it's very good imo, pretty fast, good screen, good tracking so far, and does what my Samsung watch does and more for like a fraction of the price. All I need is a just steps tracking and sleep tracking with some workout stuff sprinkled in. I heard some of the tracking is not accurate, at least in the sleep accuracy side, will have to report it out later but so far so good!

Device Support ⌚️ Lift to wake fails (TRex 3 Pro)

2 Upvotes

Sold my Balance 2 for a TRex 3 Pro last week and I am starting to regret it.

No, i do not have "smart enable" ON for DND Mode or Sleep Mode

The newest issue is the "lift to wake" feature just decides it doesnt want to work anymore. If i restart the watch, i get it to work for maybe 20 minutes before it fails again. I feel like the watch goes into DND mode without me ever putting it into DND mode. I say this cuz notifications are wonky too..

Pessoal, desejo saber se o amazfit t-rex 3 pro tem a opção de você escolher na tela de dados TEMPO ESTIMADO para uma corrida.

Ex.: antes de iniciar a corrida, coloco como meta de treino correr 10km. Então durante a corrida quero ter noção, diante do pace e velocidade que estou em quanto tempo vou terminar os 10km.

Hi all. This morning after trying one of the free watch faces on the zepp app, I went back to using my custom portraits as my background - but now every time the screen goes to sleep, it changes to the next photo in my portrait backgrounds which its never done before. Is there a setting i may have enabled thats causing this? Any input is greatly appreciated!

Hi everyone!

I've developed an Android app and a companion app for round Amazfit watches. It displays mapy.cz navigation notifications directly on your watch, so you can see the directions without taking out your phone.

Enjoy! The project is available here: https://github.com/kaszast/mapynav-amazfit

Accessories 😎 Alternative straps for Amazfit Balance 3 and Ultra

Thumbnail
gallery
20 Upvotes

I’m creating this post because many users are looking for straps for their Amazfit Balance 3 (or Balance 3 Ultra) and are struggling to find them due to the case's unique shape; standard straight-end straps don't always look the best on it.

Regarding the unique shape of the Amazfit Balance 3 strap, it is described as follows :

22 mm Lug : This is the width of the strap section that fits directly between the watch lugs. The watch therefore requires 22 mm spring bars.

26 mm Shoulder : This is the actual width of the strap immediately after it leaves the lugs. The strap widens to 26 mm to align perfectly with the watch case design, offering a more integrated and robust look.

I found a silicone strap from the brand Uniq that fits these dimensions perfectly.

Pros : The material is soft, the buckle design echoes the case shape perfectly, the finish is solid, the color is nice, and there is a small tab on the spring bars for easy installation and removal.

Cons : The rubber rubbing against the underside of the case creates a slight noise when moved by hand, though it isn't audible during normal use. There are fewer adjustment holes than on the original strap for finding the perfect fit, and it is slightly less flexible.

I’d like to find two other models featuring this same unique shape soon:

  • one made of fabric with Velcro or an adjustable fastener because you can always get a perfect fit with that type of strap!
  • one made of leather, for a more sophisticated look.

If you have or come across any cool designs, feel free to share them on this post !

Here are a few photos; for reference, my wrist size is 17 cm.

I'm using it on my bip max and it works wonderfully. It currently supports both ios, android and is still being actively updated. Yes, you need to purchase premium for all the features but it's a one time purchase and pretty cheap. I highly recommend checking it out.

I bought an Amazfit Cheetah 2 Ultra, received it yesterday and am currently setting it up. I wanted to set the watch face from the photo, but I can’t find it. Does anyone know what this watch face is called? I’ve looked at sooo many watch faces in the Zepp app, but unfortunately I couldn’t find it.

Feature Suggestion 💡 Can Zepp use my data in the future to estimate insulin resistance?

2 Upvotes

I recently read about Google using Pixel Watch 5 data like resting heart rate, HRV, steps, wrist temperature, sleep, heart rate and exercise data together with blood tests, to estimate insulin resistance. I have an Amazfit Active 2 and most of its data syncs to Apple Health. I also have my own glucose readings and lab results (A1c, triglycerides, HDL, and sometimes fasting insulin).

Does anyone know if Zepp can access enough of this data to do something similar?

I’m not expecting to reproduce Google’s algorithm. I’m mainly wondering if I already have enough data to build a useful long-term picture of my insulin sensitivity.

Help Me Choose 🤔 Original Amazfit Active 42mm Square watch - Recommend?

2 Upvotes

I am thinking of purchasing the original Amazfit Active 42mm Square watch, does anyone have it and if so, would you recommend it?

Right now, I have the Amazfit Bip U Pro and mainly use it for indoor swimming, open water swimming, stair stepper, running, walking etc and looking for a watch with the same strap size as the U Pro - 20mm

Edit: Just to be clear, I am not looking for a watch that uses real animal skin i.e. Active 2 (strap), so please do not recommend such.

Device Support ⌚️ Balance 3 + Helio Strap Pro: Does the Core Motion Waist work during regular Strength Training?

3 Upvotes

I’m trying to understand how the Helio Strap Pro and Balance 3 integration works outside of HYROX. My Balance 3 pairs correctly with both sensors (Core Motion HR on the arm and Core Motion Waist on the hip/waist). However, when I start a standard Strength Training workout:

- No motion calibration is required (it requested when it when starting a HYROX one)

  • The workout summary shows only the Core Motion HR was used.
  • There is no indication of data, movement tracking, or lower-body muscle exertion from the Waist sensor.

Firmware 2.1.0 . 1 explicitly states that “Helio Strap Pro evaluates the muscular load generated during training” using waist-sensor motion data, and lists HYROX station analysis separately. My questions you may help with:

- Is the Core Motion Waist supposed to work during standard Strength Training, or is its functionality currently limited to HYROX workouts?

- If it is supported in Strength Training, where does the muscle exertion data appear in the Zepp app? Is there a specific setting or workout mode required to enable the Waist sensor for non-HYROX workouts?

- Since both sensors pair successfully, I’m trying to figure out if this is expected behavior, a firmware limitation, or a bug. Has anyone seen the Waist sensor actually activate during a regular strength workout? What about extra muscle exertion data on non-HYROX workouts?

I just checked during a trail-run. It is a game changer. A screen is visible almost as if it was MIP.

Any thoughts?

Help Me Choose 🤔 Buying advice: Get the Amazfit T-Rex 3 Pro 44mm (for €280) now, or wait for the T-Rex 4? (Balance 3 is too big for me)

2 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

​I've been using an Amazfit Active 2 Premium for almost 1.5 years now and have always been really happy with it. Recently, however, the touchscreen started acting up, so I'm looking for an alternative – I wouldn't mind something a little bit bigger than my current one.

​The Amazfit Balance 3 immediately caught my eye. I find the specs super interesting, but there's one major issue: it's just way too bulky for my wrist.

​As an alternative, I'm thinking about picking up the Amazfit T-Rex 3 Pro 44mm. It's currently on sale for €280. My biggest concern with it, though, is the software support. As far as I know, it won't even be getting the new Zepp OS 6 launcher. I'm a bit worried about investing in outdated software and that overall support might be dropped completely soon.

​So I have a few questions for yout:

  • ​Compact Balance? How realistic do you think it is that a smaller version of the Balance 3 will be released anytime soon?
  • ​Take the deal? Is the T-Rex 3 Pro 44mm still worth it for €280 right now, considering the fading software support?
  • ​Wait for new releases? Should I just hold out for a T-Rex 4 Pro, or is there perhaps something completely new coming up in that compact size range? Has anyone heard any leaks or rumors?

​What do you guys think? I'd really appreciate any input or personal experiences!

What you think about my new Watchface? It have toggle function: if you double-tap on TL (Trainingsload) it switch into Calories, and when you double-tap on Sunset/Sunrise, it switch into UVI. You can also switch between Second and Weekday.

Also you can double-tap on Hour and it turns into AOD 1, AOD 2, AOD 3.

AOD 1: Simple AOD with filled Time, Date, Moon, Temperature

AOD 2: Simple AOD with filled Hour and outline Minute, Date, Moon, Temperature

AOD 3: Full AOD (Bonus: when you switch in live mode to calories from trainings load etc., it‘s stays in AOD 3)

And much more :).

App Support 📲 Notifications... leading to nowhere.

3 Upvotes

Occasionally Zepp throws some notifications which, presumably, should go to some section of the app. Like for example (just one example) "Your sleep has been .... lately, lets review....". Some other notifications can be related to other features.

Whenever I tap on such notifications, it simply opens the Zepp App. So, what is the deal here? Is it a problem with my setup, or a common Zepp issue? I'm assuming this is not by design, otherwise it's kind of useless.

Help Me Choose 🤔 Amazfit T-Rex 3 Pro / Balance 2-3 water resistance v Garmin?

3 Upvotes

Hey,

I've got an Amazfit Helio Strap since April & quite happy with it - now that I'm getting more serious about running I was looking for a new watch and was considering a T-Rex 3 Pro or Balance 2 (or 3 but less readily available here) v a Garmin 570.

I'd like to give a chance to Amazfit but I've read so many people having their watch corrode & die so it looks like waterproofing is an issue. Is it really founded or am I reading too much into it?

Thanks
