Smart watches can work in conjunction with a smartphone or as a stand-alone device. In the first case, you need to synchronize your watch with your smartphone through a special application.

Which smart trackers can set the clock and date without a phone?
You can set the time on the fitness bracelet either using the application preinstalled on your smartphone or without it. The vast majority of trackers, during initial synchronization (via Bluetooth) with their owner’s phone, automatically read the time of the time zone displayed on the display. If this does not happen, manufacturers of “smart gadgets” recommend resorting to manual configuration.
Without using a smartphone, you can set the clock and date only on premium models of fitness bracelets. Among them:
- Fitbit Blaze;
- Motorola Moto 360 Sport;
- Microsoft Band 2;
- ASUS ZenWatch 3 (WI503Q) leather;
- Withings Steel HR 40mm;
- Garmin Vivoactive HR;
- Garmin Fenix 3 Sapphire HR.
If the specified parameters are displayed incorrectly on the smartwatch display (the time on the bracelet does not match the time on the phone or the selected settings cannot be saved), you should check the gadget for a malfunction. The cause of such dysfunction may be:
- manufacturing defects (in such a case, you must contact the manufacturer’s service center as soon as possible, providing a receipt, warranty card, the device itself and all its components in the seller’s packaging);
- “pirated” firmware of the smartphone used, not intended for pairing with the official firmware of the “smart” bracelet (applies to phones running Android OS, where it is possible to download the operating system for free on unverified sites);
- failures in the operation of the application or the tracker itself (you need to restart the gadget);
- automatic time zone change, for example, when flying to another country (you need to restart both devices and re-sync or manually set the time and date).
Important! The option to set the time on a fitness bracelet without using a pre-installed application may be available only if the gadget has a full touch screen or has more than 2 buttons on the body. Knowing this detail will help you visually determine whether the manufacturer provides a manual configuration function for the device.

What else can smartwatches do:

Pitfalls when buying a bracelet
Before buying a smart bracelet, it is advisable to understand two things:
- You should choose a gadget from well-known brands;
- You need to know the characteristics of the device.
Electronic devices are often purchased from online stores. At the same time, it is difficult to resist a beautiful thing from an unknown manufacturer at a ridiculous price. But very often such a purchase turns out to be useless.
Firstly, small manufacturers tend to pass off as a smart bracelet a simple device that lacks half of the necessary functions.
Secondly, connecting such a bracelet to an Android phone may simply not work, because the applications will be incompatible. Or, for example, to create a pairing you will need to enter a Chinese phone number.
Therefore, it is better to focus on well-known, proven brands:
Be sure to check the characteristics of the smart bracelet for its compatibility with the version of Android installed on the phone.
On which hand to wear a fitness bracelet? How to wear it correctly.
After the smart bracelet settings are turned on, the device should be put on your hand and not removed. The tracker will measure steps and save the received information in the application. If the fitness bracelet is equipped with a screen, then you can view the statistics directly on the device.
While running, you need to launch the appropriate mode or use the additional Runtastic application. The fitness bracelet will automatically measure distance and heart rate. If you exercise too much, the device will notify you that your workout goal has been reached.
Trackers equipped with the function of counting calories and steps are very popular. The functionality depends on the model used. More advanced gadgets are more expensive. Users have learned to use trackers by downloading additional applications that make the gadget easier to use, making it more versatile.
Fitness bracelet app
As mentioned above, to synchronize the new device and smartphone, the owner needs to download a special program - Mi Fit . You can do this using a QR code or find it in the Google Play store (for Android devices) or the App Store (for iPhones).
Then the application must be installed and launched . If your smartphone already has a similar service, it must be updated to a version no lower than Mi Fit 3.4.4 – it was from this program that Russian-language firmware began to be introduced.
The next step is authorization in the system . Registration is carried out via email or phone number. This process is not difficult thanks to simple and relevant tips from the Mi Fit service.
When creating an account, the application requests the user's personal data: name, country of residence, date of birth, age, gender, weight, height. After entering the required information, the Mi Fit application can be associated with the wrist tracker.

How to connect a smart bracelet to an Android phone: sequence of actions, pitfalls.
To maintain a healthy lifestyle and fitness, smart bracelets are an invaluable thing. They allow:
But all these functions are fully revealed only when the bracelet is connected to the phone. The combination of these two gadgets can really change the lifestyle of their owner and help him maintain and improve his health.
How to use a pedometer
In order to use the fitness bracelet correctly, you should familiarize yourself with its functionality in advance. Activity parameters allow you to obtain detailed information about physical activity, tolerance to certain exercises, and even what food was consumed. Using an application on a smartphone, you can evaluate parameters.
The device allows you to customize your daily routine in accordance with the individual characteristics of your body. If necessary, you can set notifications so as not to forget about important matters.
Features of using the “Pedometer” function:
- It is important to initially put the bracelet on correctly so that the contact with the skin is sufficiently close.
- The need to wear arises when playing sports, with diseases of the cardiovascular system and high blood pressure.
Thanks to round-the-clock monitoring of physical activity, you can create the right daily routine and devote more time to sleep, playing sports and jogging; this is indispensable for people who lead an active lifestyle.
Functions of fitness bracelets
Unfortunately, most people remember about their health only when they are sick. However, good health does not always mean complete well-being. Pathologies are easier to identify if a person monitors important health indicators daily: pulse, blood pressure, number of calories consumed and burned, etc. You can do this at home if you purchase a suitable fitness bracelet model.
This gadget is a mechanism with a motion sensor, a micromotor, a control board and a battery. More convenient models are equipped with a screen that displays important information for a person. Such fitness bracelets are much more practical.
Models without screens involve transferring data to the owner’s smartphone to a special application. Thus, instantaneous acquaintance with the information of interest becomes difficult.
Gadgets help people track lifestyle features . Sometimes a person thinks that he eats little and moves a lot, but nevertheless he fails to lose weight. It is with the help of a fitness bracelet that one can objectively assess the level of physical activity of the user and the calorie content of his diet. Some models keep data records for a long time, which allows you to fully analyze your lifestyle and, if necessary, adjust it.
An important function of fitness bracelets is tracking sleep quality . Modern devices record the total duration of a night's rest. Advanced models automatically read this information without manual activation. In addition, fitness bracelets divide sleep into deep and rapid phases, simultaneously providing the user with recommendations for improving the quality of rest.
It is worth noting the following possibilities of modern devices for a healthy lifestyle:
- How to connect a fitness bracelet to an Android phone
- Counting steps. Thanks to the built-in motion sensor, fitness bracelets quite accurately calculate the distance traveled by the user. Additionally, the gadget informs the owner about the time of activity and the number of kilocalories expended.
- Smart alarm clock. The convenience of this function is that the mechanism will not work precisely at the time specified by the user, but approximately, but precisely at the moment when the owner’s sleep is least deep. Such a gentle awakening promotes good health and a positive mood in the morning. Wake-up occurs due to the vibration of the bracelet on the hand of the sleeper. Thanks to this, only the one who needs it wakes up, and not all household members.
- Track calories received and burned. Previously, people carried out such calculations on their own, often making mistakes. Not everyone can determine the calorie content of a particular product, as well as the energy consumption of any type of activity. Fitness bracelets read barcodes of dishes from a special catalog, automatically filling out a food diary and providing the owner of the gadget with information about compliance with the daily food intake. It is also better to transfer the calculation of energy costs to a modern device. The fitness bracelet takes into account all energy costs, including those occurring at rest and during sleep.
- Measuring heart rate - this function is important both for athletes and those losing weight, as well as for people with cardiac pathologies. Some models, if critical indicators are read, send an alarm signal to the user’s relatives or doctor.
- Receive notifications from your smartphone. The owner of the gadget can safely go to training, leaving other technical devices in the locker room. In the event of an important incoming call or message, the fitness bracelet will signal this with a slight vibration. The most modern models allow you to remotely control your smartphone - you can reject a call, turn off the volume or send a quick reply.
The above functions of fitness bracelets are the most popular and therefore widespread. However, if necessary, you can select a model with a more specific set of capabilities. Additional functions of sports gadgets include:
- blood pressure measurement;
- stress level assessment;
- determination of oxygen levels in the blood;
- measuring body temperature;
- possibility to do an ECG;
- availability of JPS navigator;
- making contactless payments through the terminal;
- remote control of the camera and player of the smartphone;
- displaying information about weather conditions - temperature, atmospheric pressure;
- reminder to take medication;
- sending data to trainers, doctors, family members.
Nowadays, it is quite easy to choose a gadget that best suits the needs of a particular user. Manufacturers of equipment offer a wide range of products - anyone can purchase fitness bracelets of different colors, designs, and prices.
When purchasing, you should pay attention to such a factor as water resistance . This criterion places the product in the premium class category. However, in the future, the consumer will not encounter various malfunctions in the operation of the equipment, unlike less practical models protected only from dust and splashes.

How to use the heart rate monitor
Regardless of the app you're using, every device has a Heart Rate button. By clicking on it, the user is taken to a page on which the corresponding measurements are indicated. During the measurement, you need to press your hand to your chest and not make unnecessary movements in order to obtain the most accurate information.
Control of pulse zones allows you to improve the response to physical activity. If we are talking about the need to lose weight, then morning jogging should give a result of 130 beats per minute.
