IF YOU WANT TO EDIT THE WIKI, do so on codeberg.org . The wiki on github.com is a read-only mirror, as is the git repo itself. Issues and PRs will move to codeberg summer 2019, if you want your issue/PR comments migrated properly, please create a codeberg acount before we will migrate.

Make sure to get the Gadgetbridge either from F-Droid or by compiling it yourself.

Obtaining Gadgetbridge

Our official release channel is F-Droid, so you should install the app from there. An unofficial version is available at Google Play if you insist. Please see #480 for some background.

Pairing/Connecting new device

• It is NOT necesarry to install the MiFit app at all (except for the Mi Band 4 pairing procedure).
• If you have the MiFit app, make sure it is not running. Kill or uninstall it.
• Unpair the band/watch from the phone’s bluetooth.
• Ensure GPS/location services are enabled on your device (this is related to Android permission system, since Android 6).
• Make sure to give Location service permissions to Gadgetbridge.
• Run Gadgedbridge and add new device to Gadgetbridge by pressing the Plus button.
• After the device has been discovered, follow the instructions.
