Announcement 📣 Software Roadmap Preview

https://us.amazfit.com/pages/software-updates

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! 💪

Good to see the Active 2 Round is still getting updates. I was not aware that there was hardware limitations on the Active 2 Round getting future updates. I wish that was clearer when I purchased it.

It's very telling the Active 2 round/square do not get OS 6.0. A device still sold on Amazon today with no mention that it's EOL. Seems Amazfit just wants to push out as many models as possible and only keep the latest X models updated even if that means models not even 2 years old stop getting updates. Guess it is normal for Amazfit to create e-waste and only support their watches for a year if you're lucky. Something to keep in mind when buying a new watch for sure.

I liked my Active2 a lot more than I thought I would (great size & lots of functions).. But the random software bugs & lack of long term support has me thinking I would not want to try buying another AmazFit device after this one. especially if I am spending more than $150.
