Activity

Amazfit Nexo features 10 activity modes, including Run, Walk, Cycling, Run indoor, Indoor cycling, Elliptical Trainer, Climb, Trail Run, Soccer, and Jump rope.

Start an Activity

After entering the preparation page of outdoor activities such as Run, the watch will automatically search GPS. When the search is complete, tap GO to start running. On the page of indoor activities such as Elliptical Trainer, you can directly tap GO to start your activity.

GPS Search

On the preparation page of outdoor activities, the watch will automatically start GPS positioning and remind you immediately after the positioning is successful. And the GPS positioning will automatically turn off when you leave the activity preparation page or your activity is finished.

GPS can continue searching for 3 minutes. If the positioning doesn’t succeed during that time, it will prompt you to proceed with positioning. If you do not start your activity one hour after successful positioning, the watch will automatically turn off the positioning state to save its battery. If you continue to use it, you’ll need to position it again.

Positioning suggestions

Please proceed with the GPS positioning in a flat, open outdoor area, and you can start an activity once it succeeds. If you’re among the crowds, you can raise your arm to the height of your chest to speed up the positioning process.

Assisted Global Positioning System (AGPS)

AGPS refers to a kind of GPS satellite orbit data, which helps the watch to speed up the GPS positioning process.

When the watch is connected with 4G/WLAN network, it will automatically update the AGPS data. If the watch isn’t connected with 4G/WLAN network for seven days in a row, the AGPS data will expire. The positioning speed may be affected after expiration. When you start an activity, the watch will remind you to update.

Activity Settings

Slide up the activity preparation page to display the “Settings” entry, and tab on the entry to adjust the running settings.

Activity reminder
Activity reminders provide you with control over all kinds of reminders, such as Lap alert and heart rate alert. You can program it in Activity Settings.

Heart Rate

There are two modes of heart rate measurement: The “single measurement” mode and “all-day heart rate” mode, which can be switched in the heart rate app.

Note: In order to improve the accuracy of heart rate measurement, please wear the watch correctly, keep your wrist clean and avoid the application of sunscreen when wearing the watch.

Single measurement
You can measure your heart rate manually when you need it. Please keep relatively still when measuring so that the watch can output heart rate data more accurately.

All-day heart rate
When the All-Day Heart Rate mode is turned on, the heart rate app will display your heart beats per minute (bpm), the average heart rate when you aren’t working out, the maximum and minimum heart rate, and the resting heart rate of the day. (You have to wear the watch to sleep in order to evaluate it.)

These data can be viewed on the watch and on the Amazfit app.

Note: Turning on the All-Day Heart Rate mode will reduce the endurance of the watch.

Sleep

When you wear the watch to sleep at night, it will monitor your sleep status and give a data analysis of “hours of sleep,” “deep sleep,” “light sleep” and other data after you get up the next day. Tap on the Today’s sleep interface to enter the sleep history.
