Starting an Activity
After entering the preparation page for an outdoor activity such as running, the watch will automatically
search for the GPS signal. Once the signal is obtained, tap GO to start running. After entering an indoor
activity such as an elliptical trainer, tap GO to start the activity.
About GPS Search
When you enter the exercise preparation page for outdoor activities such as running, the watch will
automatically start GPS positioning and alert you when positioning is successful. GPS positioning is
automatically turned off when you leave the exercise preparation page or complete an activity.
The watch will search for a GPS signal continuously for 3 minutes. If this time elapses without successful
positioning, it will ask you to reposition. After 20 minutes of inactivity, the watch will stop searching to
conserve the battery. If you continue to use it, you need to re-search.

Tips for Positioning:
GPS positioning should be done in an open area in the outdoor. We recommend searching GPS before
starting an activity. If you are in a crowd, raising your arm to your chest will accelerate the positioning.
ii.
Assisted GPS (AGPS):
AGPS refers to a GPS satellite orbit information data that can help the watch to perform GPS positioning
faster.
While keeping your watch connected to your phone's Bluetooth, the watch regularly synchronizes and
updates AGPS data with the Amazfit Watch app on a daily basis. If watch hasn’t sync with your Amazfit
Watch app for 7 days, the AGPS data will expire. The positioning speed may be affected when AGPS
expires, so the watch will remind you to update when you begin an activity.
