Welcome! In front of me I have a Xiaomi Mi Band 2 and I want to actually go over
0:13
a couple changes that have been made to the app that you can use with the band
0:17
itself. So I'm gonna start off by actually opening up the app which is
0:22
called Mi Fit and from here assuming you're already connected you can go into
0:28
the profile alongside with having this completely new added. You can actually
0:34
have like walk, run, cycling. You can quickly access it to just tap on go and
0:39
it will start scanning or monitoring it. So it's a nice thing. Can I not do it
0:50
I'm just gonna stop it. Okay so apart from this nice touch up that you have a
1:00
quick access to these functions you can go also into the profile and select your
1:05
band right here and here you can enable notifications for incoming calls, alarm
1:14
apps, idle alerts and you can also tap on more and see basically the entire list
1:18
of things that you can be notified on on the band and you can switch them off
1:23
whichever one you like to see. On top of that you can change for instance display
1:31
settings right here which will change whatever it is showing right here. By
1:37
default you have only like three things showing, three different tiles which I'm
1:42
not sure but I think those are the default ones. You have time, distance
1:47
and heart rate but you can freely add other ones that are shown here by
1:52
checking them off and confirming with OK and then if you try to do this again
1:56
you should see now calories also heart rate and battery. Basically the ones that
2:01
I have added. So that's a option there. Apart from that you have a lousy find my
2:10
band which if you have misplaced it in your house and you have sonic hearing
2:16
then I guess that would be useful. Other way if it's under a pile of let's say
2:22
clothing yeah I don't believe you have any chance of finding it with this
2:25
function. I'm not even sure if you can hear that on a camera but it's basically
2:30
just a buzzing noise. Yeah I don't even see that the camera is picking it up
2:37
Maybe I can bring it up to that here. That's basically what you get. So that is
2:47
define my band. Apart from this going back actually to to the notifications
2:58
for them to actually work all the time you can go here to run in the background
3:04
and you get a little guide on how to make it run in the background because
3:08
certain phones to preserve battery they have a way of basically shutting off
3:14
background applications. So for instance if this would be running on this app in
3:19
the background my phone would probably just disable it after a certain amount
3:24
of time and then I wouldn't be getting any more notifications. So you get a
3:28
little guide on how to do it. So yeah. Now going back you get a couple other
3:35
informations here like Bluetooth address firmware version, reset to factory settings. If you actually choose that the band will disconnect and will forget the
3:47
band itself. So it's basically as useful as tapping on unpair. What else
3:54
Heart rate sleep assistance. I just I don't find use for it really apart from
4:01
a novelty just to see how stressed I am while sleeping but hey I don't know what
4:07
else other people might use it for. So it's a it's an option. Then you get
4:14
something like what wrist you're wearing it on. So where was it
4:21
Band location right here. So you can change if your band is on the right arm
4:25
or wrist or left one. What else? You have also option to lift wrist to view info
4:36
So if I check this on. Let's see if I can actually like imitate it. Yeah I don't
4:50
think I have enough of swing here to to show it. But basically if you have it on
4:54
your wrist you can lift up your wrist and up to your face and it should wake up the display. And you also have a wrist flick which would be kind of like this
5:02
to switch the tile in a way. So instead of tapping it you can just
5:10
kind of flick your wrist and switch it. So that's also an option. It's right here
5:16
Rotate wrist to switch info. So you just check it on and it would work like that
5:21
And that is about it from all the more useful I guess information and changes
5:30
that you can do to your band. Now if you found this video helpful don't forget to like, subscribe and thanks for watching
