    There are two ways to start an Activity:

    • From the home screen of the watch, swipe left till you find Activity.
    • Long press the physical button to quickly start an Activity set up already in watch Settings.
      Amazfit Bip supports outdoor running, treadmill, cycling and walking. Before you start an activity, please check if the storage space on the watch is enough. If this is not enough, the previously unsynchronized activity data may be covered during the activity. To ensure that the data will not be covered, it is recommended to connect and sync the data as soon as you finish the activity.
      For sports modes like outdoor running, cycling and walking, which need to enable GPS positioning, you can start the activity after the GPS gets the location successfully.
  2. Activity Initiated
    If the GPS option is initiated and started, the watch will offer a three- second countdown before tracking begins.

  3. Alerts during Activity
    From the watch’s home screen, swipe left to access “Activity”➡ “Activity settings”. Tap “Activity settings” to set “Auto pause”, “Heart rate alert”, “Pace alert”, and “Distance alert”.

    • Heart rate alert: You can set a value to make the watch alert you when your heart rate jumps above the value you set.
    • Pace alert: You can set a target pace to make the watch alert you when your pace is below the target pace.
    • Distance alert: You can set the desired distance to alert you. (eg: The watch will vibrate when you reach every 2 miles/km)
    • Insufficient space alert: The watch will vibrate to remind you whether to continue the activity when there is insufficient space. If you click “Continue”, the unsynchronized data will be covered. If you click “End”, you will end this activity.
    • Space exhaust alert: If you run out of space during the activity, you will be also alerted by vibration. And the watch will automatically save this activity record for you.
    • GPS status change alert: When you choose an outdoor activity, it will vibrate to alert you after the GPS is successfully positioned.
  4. The basic approach during Activity
    On the activity interface, long press the key to pause the activity; short press the key to switch the screen. You can also switch the screen by swiping up or down manually.Amazfit-Bip-S-Smartwatch-fig-

  6. Viewing Activity History
    You can view the activity history from both your watch and app.

  7. Watch
    From the watch’s home screen, swipe left to access “Activity”➡ “Activity history”. If there is an unsynchronized activity record, you can see an unsynchronized icon on the right side of the list column. After the data is synchronized successfully in the app, that icon will no longer be displayed. Click on an activity record to see the detailed data.

  8. Mi Fit App
    Please open App➡ Click “Activity” right below the app home page to view all activity records that are synchronized from the watch.

  9. Deleting Activity History
    From the home screen of the watch, swipe left to access “Activity”➡ “Activity history”➡ Swipe up till you see “Delete”.
    Note: Please make sure this activity is synchronized with the app before you delete it. And if you also want to delete this activity record from the app, you need to delete it manually on the app.

  10. Activity Settings
    From the watch’s home screen, swipe left to access “Activity”➡ “Activity settings”. Tap “Activity settings” to set “Auto pause”, “Heart rate alert”, “Pace alert”, and “Distance alert”. After the alert is activated, the corresponding reminder will be performed during the activity.

  11. GPS and A-GPS
    Tap outdoor running, the watch will automatically initiate the search for a GPS signal but you can skip this step at that moment by clicking on the “Skip” button, however, it will still search GPS during your activity.

  12. If the GPS option is initiated and started, the watch will offer a three-second countdown before tracking begins. You can long press the physical button to “pause” and tap “continue” to continue or tap “end” to stop.

  13. After you finish and sync, you can view the GPS route and details in the watch and Mi Fit App.

  14. The GPS signal is better in an open space. After getting the location successfully, you can start the activity. If you are in a crowd, please raise your arm to your chest, which can speed up the GPS positioning. Assisted GPS (A-GPS) is a system allowing global positioning system (GPS) receivers to obtain information from network resources to assist in satellite location. An A-GPS system is especially useful when the receiver is in a location where it is difficult for the satellite signals to penetrate. AGPS will help your watch find your precise position quickly and improve accuracy. The A-GPS data updates once a day. The latest A-GPS data is automatically updated each time you sync it with the Mi Fit App.
    Note: If the watch hasn’t synced with your Mi Fit App for 7 days, A-GPS data will expire. The positioning speed may be affected when AGPS expires and the watch will remind you to update when you start an activity.

  15. Heart Rate Zone
    During activity, the watch calculates your heart rate zone based on your personal information. The heart rate zone will help you determine the effect and intensity of the activity. The current heart rate zone will be displayed next to the heart rate on the watch. After the activity is finished, you can view the duration in each heart rate zone from the “Details” page of the Activity history on the app. There are six zones (Relaxed, Light, Weight, Aerobic, Anaerobic, and VO2 max) by default, which are calculated based on the estimated maximum heart rate. The watch calculates the maximum heart rate using the commonly used “220 minus age” formula.
