Auto pause

The auto-pause can be turned on or off in the auto-pause settings. Once it is turned on, whenever the exercise speed is too slow, the workout recording will be paused automatically. When the speed increases beyond a certain threshold, the workout recording will resume. Recording can also be resumed manually during the pause.

Real-time graph

In the real-time diagram settings, you can set if a real-time data plot should be displayed during workout. The plot for each workout can be different, so one real-time plot using one set of data can be set up for each workout.

About GPS Positioning

When you enter the Workout Preparation page for an outdoor exercise such as running, the watch will automatically start GPS positioning and alert you as soon as your location is confirmed. The watch will turn off GPS positioning automatically when you exit the Workout Preparation page or finish the workout.

The GPS searching process will last for 5 minutes maximum. If positioning is not successful after that, you will be prompted to repeat the positioning process. If you do not start exercising within 10 minutes after you are successfully positioned, the watch will automatically turn off positioning to reduce power consumption. You will have to repeat the positioning process if you want to start exercising again.

Positioning tips

GPS positioning should be performed in an open area outdoors. Please wait for the positioning process to complete before starting your exercise. If you are in a crowd, raising your watch to your chest level may speed up the positioning process.

Assisted Global Positioning System (AGPS)

AGPS uses the orbital information of the GPS satellites help the watch perform GPS positioning faster.

When the watch is connected with your phone via Bluetooth, the watch will actively synchronize and update AGPS data with Amazfit app every day. If the watch hasn't synchronized this data with Amazfit app for seven consecutive days, the AGPS data will expire, and the positioning speed may be affected.

Pool Swimming

Useful terms

Lane length: The length of the lanes in your swimming pool. The watch will calculate your swimming data based on the lane length you set.

Therefore, every time you change a swimming pool, please set the lane length accordingly so that the watch can accurately assess your swimming data.

Lap: under the pool swimming mode, swim for a distance equal to the lane length you set.

Stroke: finish a complete paddling action while wearing your watch on your wrist.

Stroke rate: the number of strokes per minute.

DPS: An abbreviation of distance per stroke, refers to the moving distance after finishing a complete stroke.

SWOLF: SWOLF is an important indicator for a swimmer, which uses scores to make a comprehensive assessment of your swimming speed. SWOLF for pool swimming mode = duration of one lap (in seconds) + number of strokes in a single lap. SWOLF for open water swimming mode will be calculated using a lap distance of 100 meters. The smaller the score is, the higher the efficiency of your swimming.

Medley	More than one style have been recognized in one swimming exercise, and the proportion of each style does not differ by much.
