@@StusReviewsUK next time! Lol, actually your review is what sold me on the watch. I was watching all sorts of reviews, you went into the most depth and answered the questions I had about it. Thank you! It also introduced me to your videos, love the way you approach your videos and the humor!
This works a bit different on Android. The only one I could get to work in Play Store is called "My WatchFace [free] for Amazfit Bip" - it works by replacing the existing watch face selection already in the Mi Fit app. When you then go into the Mi Fit watch face selection screen, the original icon for the preview is still there, and you have to remember which one you replaced it with. It works, but the method is cumbersome.
Great to learn about the amazfitwatchfaces website đ After clicking on Download and choosing the version it opened directly in AmazTools without needing to upload a file first â
I only discovered that after I shot the video! Only downside is that you canât keep/store more than 1 at a time from the website- my method in the video you at least get to keep the ones you like đ
I keep looking at the Bip as a replacement to my Pebble Time smartwatch. I have two things holding me back, waterproof and a lack of a market. This app you are showing us helps a bip
great ! thank you! I had researched to translate my beep amazfit to change the annoying Chinese language. and this application made it simple. and still gave me availability for other cooler watchfaces, really thanks gave new life to my beep amazfit.
Stuâs Reviews well, coming from a pebble there are some differences. The notifications donât stay up longer than a few seconds whereas with pebble they are up for 2 min or so. iOS users like myself are very limited with options for the watch (mi fit and amaztools). The steps counter and heart rate monitor arenât very precise (1 min readings 62bpm, next 57, then 83, then DEAD, then 103 and back to 70 lol)
actually from safari in your iphone you can go to website amazfitwatchfaces.com and install the faces it will prompt you to open it with amaztools , no need to save it on icloud or anything
Your voice/accent sounded like a singer lol i knew your voice is kinda similar to someone,that someone is pamungkas a popular singer in my coutry lmao Btw nice video
Liked and subscribed. Thanks for the vid :) I'm also a massive fan of this amazing value smart watch! I can't help but find it amusing how people can spend 10x as much on an apple watch that has pretty much the same day to day functionality but has a ridiculously poor battery life. My one bug bear has always been the lack of watch faces, so have been waiting to come across something like this for a while! Thanks again!!
One question further to previous comment- does anyone know whether you can actually set a timed DND mode? It's either manual which can get a little annoying or auto which means you have to where your watch to bed for it to register you're sleeping which I don't like doing. If I could set a time say between 2030-0830 for *not alerting* notifications that would be perfect.
Great question... and I agree, itâs something that annoys me too! At this moment I donât believe you can change that, although on he new mi band 3 you can set it to dnd based on a specified time, so I wouldnât be surprised if that function makes it to the bip in the near future!
Awesome content!! And Does anyone notice random disconnects for iOS devices , Itâs totally annoying and even when it is connected find my phone feature is also not working, only when the mi fit app is opened, it will work .
Hi Stu, don't know if you own any Pebbles especially the colour ones but if so, would love to see it next to the Bip and moved around under a light source to see how good/bad the contrast is as I found the washed out colours almost disqualifying on the Pebble Time (my wife uses one) and I stuck with the monochrome Pebble 2 we are looking at Bips as a backups because replacement pebbles are harder to find every day
Hi Tim, I donât have a pebble lying around to compare with Iâm afraid- although I would say when you install certain faces on the bip, the contrast is brilliant. Itâs actually been mistaken by people for a pebble quite a few times!
I get this Q a lot, so hereâs a copy answer for you - the one I have is discontinued, this is the closest replacement; www.gearbest.com/smartwatch-accessories/pp_009583555284.html?lkid=15651373
Is it possible to silent the phone call.... I think we can only reject call, and what does ignore option do....whether it stops the watch vibration or silent the phone ringing?
Each time you install a face, it writes it over the previous one, so you can only have one custom face at a time. Good thing is the apps you use to install them have a bookmark/save feature that saves the faces you like so you can install them again if you want to change it up.

i just ordered my amazfit bip today and after watching this video i cant wait to get it =)

On Android you can directly download or import watchfaces from app 'amazfit bip & cor watchfaces', just like ios.
And is more easy I think
