We are happily rolling out the new update 1.17.0 that contains important fixes and improvements, mainly for Mi Band 2, but not only. Let's go through them.
1. For Mi Band 2:
- You can configure which items on the screen are visible.
- It's possible to allow the screen to highlight when you lift your wrist.
- You can configure activity reminder, enable and disable it, set when it should work.
2. Everywhere around the app now we show date and time in your regional format settings. In the same format it should be visible on the screen of your Mi Band 2.
3. Now it's possible to set up to 10 alarms for Mi Band 2 (and up to 3 for older bands, as it was before).
4. Major fixes in synchronization for both Mi Band 2 and Mi Band 1.
5. Small stability, speed and UX fixes.
Well, it's quite a long list. We hope that you will like the changes.
Some other info regarding Mi Band 2.
It seems like that in the latest public firmware we have even more settings for display, like date displaying and "do not disturb" mode. We will add that in future releases, please, be sure. The same concerns firmware update for Mi Band 2.
Talking about the smart alarm in Mi Band 2, as users are reporting, it doesn't work. We can only say that we submit this setting to the band, but it seems to be not supported by firmware or hardware. That brings some confusion, so maybe we will remove the setting from alarm configuration in future.
And coming back to vibration on push-notifications...
They seem to work (woohoo!) and we plan to publish first builds containing this feature during September. We know that you are eager to try that, so as soon, as we have something reliable to show, we will present a public beta-version. Well, that's the plan and hopefully, everything will go fine.
Have a wonderful September!
UPDATE 1.17.1: Translations update and improvements on sleep tracking for Mi Band 2.
UPDATE 1.17.2: Translations update and improvements on sleep tracking.
Great updates! Looking forward to see the notification! Any news about continious measuring of the heartrate?
ReplyDeleteHi team. Thank you for your effort. I have supported you by buying two lifetime applications, one for me and one for my wife. These improvements are great. I am looking forward to the date displaying and DND. Keep working on it.
ReplyDeleteIf you want the date display you can set it up with an android phone with the latest mi fit app (not the one from plays tore)

ReplyDeletefirmware upgrade is not possible?
ReplyDeletePenso che per il momento su Mi Band 2 non sia possibile...la mia versione è 1.0.0.19
DeleteLa mia è 1.0.0.11. Leggendo su internet con l'app per android si aggiorna all'ultimo firmware che abilita la visualizzazione della data
DeleteAspetterò che tutto questo sia fattibile direttamente da quest'app...
DeleteSperiamo arrivino presto le notifiche, così il mio MI4 potrebbe durare tanto tempo ancora.

ReplyDeletethanks !
Windows Phone 8.1 is the problem at the beginning of inactivity reminders work. After changing schedules, nothing. Reminders do not work anymore, even by installing the application again. As if Miband2 was corrupt. How to do ?
ReplyDeleteHelp !!!!
ReplyDeleteTwo days without sleep info.
Cardio and steps counter work fine.
Greets.
Me too !!!! Mi band 1S on W10 release.
DeleteSleep info not working !!
Can be related to 1.17.1 update ???
Sleep working fine for me 1S with WP10 and 1.17.1
DeleteI'm with Mi band 1s on w10 release, update 1.17.1 and working great. Maybe you need update the firmware of the band. I updated the firmware via bluetooth with Bind Me Band and all is working ok!
ReplyDeleteGreets!
My 1S firmware is updated already and does not work the sleep info.
DeleteGreets!
1S firmware 4.16.4.22.
DeleteSOLVED !!!!!
DeleteUninstalled app and unpair miband.
Pair miband and reinstall app
Today I have sleep info working again.
Greets.
Thanks !!
Deleteany beta test opened for notifications ?
ReplyDeleteHi,
ReplyDeleteI have activated the option to measure heartrate during sleep, but cannot find the data regarding heartbeats.
Can someone help me?
I always thought it was used just to give a more accurate measure of sleep, not to show heart rate during sleep. Am I wrong?
DeleteIt should be exactly for that, but has the application has the raw data of the heartbeats, it should be easy to show it,if it not doing it already
DeleteUpdate?? was it a bug fix?
ReplyDeleteHi! I'm planning to buy a Mi Band 2 and this app for my Lumia. Is firmware update available over this app or do I have to use android?
ReplyDeleteHi,
DeleteNot yet. Apparently is one of the next features to be implemented, but for now you still need to use Android
Hi! I made the firmware update to the mi band 1s with Bind Mi Band app and it went ok!
DeleteHI, Not yet. Apparently is one of the next features to be implemented, but for now you still need to use Android
ReplyDeleteStill think you will make a September release with notification support?
ReplyDeleteNotification :O thats sound great. That means that Microsoft release update with API acces? :) Can you make app for Xiaomi mi key? :)
ReplyDeleteCutting it fine for a September release......you trying to build the tension??
ReplyDeleteAnyone insider with problems using the app on the latest update? (fast ring) I'm unable to connect with the miband 1s from the app. Inside Bluetooth options appear as connected...
ReplyDeletehi,
Deletesame problem for me : latest insider fast ring since yesterday can't connect. already tryed to disconnect and reconnect the miband :(
Hi there, same here cant Connect newest Insider build
DeleteНеплохо бы добавить хотя бы оповещение о новой прошивке. А-то miband2 теперь и дату может показывать, а мы и не в курсе. И можно ли допилить включение нового типа часов (с датой).
ReplyDeleteOk Since The latest Insider Build App is Not Working, i have done a reinstall and Nothing.. Hope you can fix this soon.
ReplyDeleteRegards Thomas
