(I AM using the latest version of the app) Even with the newest update, it looks like when the watch manages to connect to this app it disconnects from zepp and there's no way to get it back synced unless force stopping tools & amazfit. At certain points it can be disconnected from both and it's always hard to make it sync back. This doesn't just make this app useless, but also undermines the behavior of the original app. Tried on 2 different phones but same results...
Reviews for Tools & Amazfit
The app itself seems maybe OK, but the customer service is the worst I have ever encountered with a paid app. What happened: I have been unable to find any way to quit the app and its background daemon without completely uninstalling the app. I checked their online support wiki with no joy. So, I sent an email to their support email address describing the problem. What I got back was an automated response telling me to go see the wiki (which I had alreqady done), and if that didn't help send another email. They then state that another email would NEVER be seen by anyone in their development community who actually knows anything. To heck with them. I don't mind paying for apps. I figure that's what keeps the developers in business and provides me with a modicum of support. In this case, no support. I'm outta here. Adios.
Doesn't work, at least with my Amazfit Bip. Turning off notifications in the Amazfit app and adding app notifications in this app, none come through to the watch. The notification shade setting in this app is set to always on, high priority. Maybe I have something wrong still but this matches the help docs. Not only that, but the FAQs falsely advertise that Chinese versions of 'watches' language "Can be changed [no matter what]". This is very misleading; it doesn't work with Amazfit GTS CH ver.
Orginally rated 2 stars, now it's 1, would be zero if I could. Emailed suport on 07/30 because of constant disconnects, followed the troubleshooting guide, got an automated msg back and told to follow the TS guide and send config , which I did. Never heard back, replied back again on 08/15 to check and that was ignored as well. Now 08/31 and still nothing. Reading around, seems this is typical. If it works for you great, if not, don't expect help from the dev, they already have your money!
Loved mitools hoped this would be just as good, unfortunately I cannot run it congruently with the zepp app, it's one or the other. No watch faces very hit or miss if it notifies me of sms or calls, and blocks workouts / heart rate / steps from syncing with apps. Tools turns itself on at whim causing multiple issues. I set this up exactly how I had mitools set up because I wanted only to give my sleep data to sleep as Droid app, As I had with my previous band. Extremely disappointed.
Posted in April. Now 22-May. Still no fix. Purchased the license. When linking to my GTR3 Pro it's fails due to 'unstable Bluetooth connection'. So renders the app completely unusable. Worked fine on my previous GTR3, just not latest the GTR3 Pro. Now I can't use SleepForAndoid for which I also purchased a seperate license. Official website says it works with Gtr3 Pro. Hope a fix is coming down the pipe shortly.
Can't not get the app to link w/GTS3. Even bought the license thinking perhaps that might help, nope. The description of the app clearly states it's fully compatible with the GTS3 , but I have no idea how. Every time I wait for the app to connect it looks like it's going to and then says unstable connection. No issue connecting any other devices or apps to Bluetooth devices so it's not the connection as much as the coding.
Works for sleep as android integration and alarms with Amazfit band 5, but it can't take heart rate measurements reliably at scheduled times, especially overnight. It starts off well, then at some point stops measuring completely, or moves to 1 hour intervals etc. Surprising as the mi band version worked great, so I'm suapecting Zepp is interfering.
Improves and makes the use of the Amazfit watch easier. That being said, the developer is not responsive and when he does email you back he expects verification of purchase, etc. When you go through the hoops to do it you don't get an answer after that, apparently because they are flooded with questions. So, is it good? I'd say it's ok, but not worth the money unless your questions are in the FAQ section. Update: Email sent the day after the purchase.Devs passive aggressive response unwarranted
okay, have been using this Tools & Amazfit app which can customize notifications to include apps names. but this app requires you to install the awful Mi Fit app. but the MiFit app is horrible and never stays activated to connect watch & phone. my solution is to, yes, install the MiFit app but not actually use MiFit, and instead install the Notify & Fitness app for health functions & to maintain connection between watch & phone, and use this Tools & Amazfit app for only notifications.
