Mi Fit application in Russian: installation on Android or iOS and a brief overview

Users of the Mi Fit application are both active athletes and people who monitor their health. This software powers all Mi Band series trackers.

The application is in demand among users of Xiaomi bracelets, primarily because of its rich functionality. It allows:

track heart rate;
calculate mileage traveled, pace, time spent;
track changes in weight;
count calories;
monitor sleep, including its phases;
notify about incoming calls, messages, notifications from social networks;
use an alarm clock, taking into account the stages of sleep (depth, duration);
unlock your phone;
view statistics.

Interesting! The bracelet can track mileage not only for outdoor jogging, but also for treadmill training, cycling and walking. Based on your heart rate, the program makes recommendations to slow down or speed up your running pace.

The application is able to build a training plan based on the indicators and goals set in your personal profile. When measuring weight, the program also calculates the percentage of body fat, showing whether it corresponds to the norm.

You can download Mi Fit on any smartphone with the Android or iOS operating system. You can download the version for Android OS in the Play Market application. There you can read all the reviews about the utility, find out the overall user rating and see the number of downloads. To date, more than 10 million users have installed Mi Fit on their smartphones.

The Russian-language version of the program can also be found on the Internet. This is version 3.5.8. In order to download it, just click the “Install” button. Before downloading, you need to make sure that your smartphone meets the requirements of the program, namely Android OS version 4.3 or higher. and Bluetooth 4.0 module. It is worth noting that most modern smartphone models comply with these technical conditions.

Owners of Apple gadgets with the iOS operating system installed on them download Mi Fit from the App Store. The main requirement is iOS 9 or later installed on the smartphone.

What metrics does the app track?

Mi Fit tracks the following physical indicators:

graph of heart rate changes;
stress level;
PAI index;
weight (and its change schedule);
number of steps taken (and mileage);
number of calories burned;
time spent on training (with a detailed intensity schedule);
sleep information.

All specified data is synchronized with the cloud server. So after reinstalling the application, even after changing the smartphone, they are restored.

Registration and authorization

Before you begin full use of the Xiaomi Mi Band 3 fitness tracker, you must carry out registration and authorization procedures. Only in this case will it be possible to enter personal data, generate statistics and optimally use all the functionality of the program.

You can log in to the application only after creating an account. The program offers 2 ways to register it: via email and mobile phone number.

In the first case, the algorithm of actions will be as follows:

selecting the current location (if the user wants to skip this step, click the “Next” button);
agreement with the Privacy Policy (check the “Accept” field);
creating an account (by logging into We Chat, Google, Facebook);
authorization (you need to select your country or region of residence, and then enter your work email address);
creating a Mi account by pressing the corresponding button;
password selection (alphanumeric code of no more than 16 characters);
password duplication;
entering a captcha (in the Captcha field, repeat the numbers or letters shown in the verification picture);
account activation (using the “Login” button).

The second method involves registering through a mobile phone number. In this case, the procedure will be similar, only at the “Authorization” step you will need to enter a phone number instead of an email. After this, the system will require you to enter a captcha, and at the end of the registration procedure - personal data.

Next, the program will ask you to select the number of steps that must be taken per day. This value will be monitored every day. The next point, the utility will prompt the user to choose which device he wants to connect: a watch, a fitness bracelet or smart sneakers.

After checking the box next to the bracelet, you need to bring it to your smartphone in order to start the synchronization process. The end signal will be a slight vibration of the tracker. You can turn it off by pressing the touch button on the device display.

At this point, the authorization connection process will be completed and the user can proceed to individual device settings.

We track basic body parameters

To work with the application, we chose the Mi Body Composition Scale, which measures 9 body indicators:

body mass
BMI
volume of muscle tissue
basal metabolic rate
total and visceral fat ratios
bone mass
body water level
body type

For accurate measurements, you need to stand barefoot on the scales so that your toes and heels touch the round sensors. Body weight is displayed on an electronic display. After about 5 seconds, the rest of the data will be in the application. You can view them in the “Status” section.

Bodymaster recommends!

Many nutritionists agree that the best time to weigh yourself is in the morning before meals. The fact is that body weight can change throughout the day.

Natalya Fadeeva, a nutritionist-endocrinologist and candidate of medical sciences, says in her book “Too Slim” that it is best to measure your weight in the morning. According to her, one should step on the scale on an empty stomach and after the morning toilet - at this point a person’s weight is minimal, since no food has entered the body during the night.

The current weight is displayed at the top of the screen. To see the dynamics over several days, go to the “Weight” tab. Here the graph displays all changes in weight at each measurement. The application will indicate how many kilograms you have gained or lost since the first day of measurement. In addition, Mi Fit keeps statistics on how much lighter or heavier you are than a certain percentage of people of the same height and place of residence.

Another important scale is the weight characteristic. Mi Fit will tell you whether you are overweight, underweight, or if your weight is normal.

However, the information that is collected in the “Body Assessment” section looks much more interesting and clearer. Mi Fit gives an overall score, and below is a breakdown of all points based on the user’s physical data. In our case, we set 180 centimeters, current weight – 60.4 kg, age – 33 years.

Body fat level

According to our data, the level of body fat should be between 17 and 22%. A too low or high percentage indicates that there is a risk of endocrine system disruption. More information about what percentage of fat should be in the body at a certain age can be found in our table:

For men

For women

Muscle mass

For such height and weight, the volume of muscle mass should not be lower than 49.5 kg. The application suggests that you should pay attention to nutrition and exercise. In general, for a healthy person aged 25 to 40 years, the volume of muscle mass should be 35-45 percent of the total mass.

Body mass index

Calculated using the formula: weight (kg)/height (m) squared. Please note that this indicator is quite indirect, since even with a standard BMI, people can have a lot of fat and little muscle mass. To find your BMI, use our table:

Body water level

The norm for an adult is from 55 to 70%. The optimal water intake is an individual thing and is calculated using a simple formula:

Water rate (l) = 3% Body weight (kg)

For example, if you weigh 65 kg, you should drink 1.95 liters of water per day. By the way, water is a great help for those who decide to lose excess weight. Read more about this in our article Losing weight with water.

Basal metabolic rate

This is the minimum amount of energy required for the normal functioning of the body. The higher the level, the more difficult it is for a person to gain weight. To independently calculate BMU, you can use one of the popular formulas:

Harris-Benedict formula

BMU for a man = (13.397 x weight, kg) + (4.799 x height, cm) – (5.677 x age) + 88.362;
BMU for a woman = (9.247 x weight, kg) + (3.098 x height, cm) – (4.330 x age) + 447.593.

Mifflin-St. Geor Formula

BMU for a man = (10 x weight, kg) + (6.25 x height, cm) + (5 x age) + 5;
BMU for a woman = (10 x weight, kg) + (6.25 x height, cm) + (5 x age) – 161.

Katch-McArd equation

BMU = 370 + (21.6*LBM), where LBM is mass minus fat

Visceral fat

This is fat accumulation around the abdominal organs. It is very easy to acquire, but quite difficult to get rid of. And exceeding the norm of life expectancy can lead to heart problems, hypertension, hyperlipidemia and other chronic diseases.

Calculation according to VZh standards looks like this:

1-12 units - normal volume;
13-59 units – exceeding the norm.

To keep your visceral fat levels under control, you need to eat a balanced diet and do 20 minutes of aerobic exercise every day. You can read more about exercise plans and workouts in our article How to get fit.

Bone mass

This is the amount of calcium, phosphorus and other minerals that make up bones. If your bone mass is low, you need to add foods rich in calcium to your diet, stay in the fresh air during daylight hours for at least 15 minutes a day, and devote 20 minutes a day to sports training.

The normal bone mass looks like this:

Men

Under 50 – 1.95 kg
50 – 75 – 2.40 kg
75 and older - 2.95 kg

Women

Under 65 – 2.65 kg
65 – 95 – 3.30 kg
95 and older - 3.70 kg

At the end, Mi Fit displays your overall body composition based on the ratio of body fat to muscle mass.

By the way, in order not just to measure daily indicators, but to strive for a certain result, you can specify a weight goal in your profile, as well as the number of steps. It is believed that, on average, a person should walk 8,000 steps a day. However, if you want to know exactly how many calories you will burn based on the number of steps, use this formula:

Calories burned = equal to number of steps x step length (m) x 0.5 x person's weight (kg)

If we take the average step length to be 0.7 meters and the weight to be 65 kg, we obtain the following data:

Bodymaster recommends!

Walking is recognized by many fitness experts as one of the most effective means for losing weight. Of course, as in any sports activity, it is important to follow certain rules and techniques. You can read about how to lose excess weight step by step in our article Walking for weight loss.

Connecting a fitness watch

After creating an account and synchronizing the Mi Band and phone, you can begin the connection procedure. First you need to turn on Bluetooth, after which the recommended action algorithm will be displayed on the screen:

click on the “Connect device” button;
Select Band from the provided list of accessories;
after the application makes a request to press the fitness bracelet, it is enough to lightly tap the device with your finger;
wait for the operation to complete and the corresponding notification.

Important! After binding, installation of updates to the currently current version will automatically begin. To facilitate the operation of the device, you need to place the fitness tracker as close to the phone as possible. Once the update download is complete, the user interface will appear on the display.

Controls

1. Display. The display of the Mi Band fitness tracker is used to display information. This is a monochrome OLED panel. In version 3 of the bracelet, the display has a touch layer for gesture control.

2. Function button. It is used to interact with the device. Control occurs by pressing and holding the button.

3. Charging connector. These connectors are responsible for transferring energy when charging the Mi Band. To charge the Mi Band must be removed from the strap. The connector should be connected first to the proprietary charging belt, and then to the low-power charging unit.

4. Heart rate monitor. This sensor is responsible for analyzing the user's heart rate. For an accurate measurement, it should be attached just above the “knuckle” on the wrist. The sensor is made according to an optical design.

5. Strap for wearing Mi Band. This accessory is used to attach the capsule to the user's wrist. It is made of hypoallergenic silicone and does not cause allergic reactions on the user's skin. The strap also provides additional protection for the main capsule from water and falls. The strap is replaceable and can be replaced with another.

How to disconnect a device from a smartphone

In some cases, the user needs to disconnect the device from the phone. So the reasons for this could be:

loss of tracker;
change or loss of phone;
transferring a fitness bracelet to another person;
device settings failure.

There are several ways to cancel synchronization:

through the application;
by contacting support;
using the Diagnostic system.

Untethering via Mi Fit is the most common. To desync, you need to log into your profile, select the Mi Band line in the list of devices and click on the “Unlink” button at the bottom of the page. After this, all that remains is to confirm your action and wait for the end of the procedure.

The support service is often contacted when problems arise with the first method. Everything is simple here: you need to contact the service and provide them with all the required documents (photo of the Xiaomi Mi Band 3 fitness tracker, payment document, whole package). Service specialists will provide access to the account in the Mi Fit application, which will allow the owner to untie and link the device to a new smartphone.

The third way to cancel synchronization is to use the Diagnostic application. This program is unofficial and only works with the Android operating system. First, you need to install it on your smartphone, and then synchronize the Mi Band series bracelet with your phone. As soon as the tracker is identified in the detected devices, you need to select it and click the “Reset to factory settings” button. The result of such actions will be the decoupling of the device from the mobile gadget.

How to download the MiFit app

MiFit is compatible with devices running Android (version 5.0 and above), as well as iOS (version 10 and above). To download and install the application you need:

log into the official application store (GooglePlay or AppStore);

select "Install".

Connecting the Xiaomi Mi Band

Before you start connecting the Mi Band, you must first charge it. To do this, you need to use a special cable, which should come with the device. Connect a fitness tracker to this cable and plug it into a USB port on your computer or phone charger.

After the Mi Band is charged, it can be connected to the phone. To do this you will need the Mi Fit app. This is an application for working with smart gadgets from Xiaomi.

The Mi Fit application, like any other, can be installed from the Play Market or Xiaomi Market (mi Market) application store.

Fixing the bracelet on the wrist. The bracelet should be placed just above the “bone” on the wrist. It can be worn on both the right and left hand. The bracelet should be fastened tightly, but not pinch your wrist. Proper wearing will increase the accuracy of physical measurements.

How to disable the old Mi Band

Only one Mi Band can be connected to one Mi Fit app at a time. Therefore, if you have an old Mi Band that is already connected to your phone, you will need to disconnect it before connecting the new one.

In this case, when you start the connection, a pop-up message will appear on the screen in which you will need to click on the “Unlink” button. After this, a page with information about the connected gadget will open; here you need to scroll to the very end and click on the “Untie” button again.
