Activities and Health

1. The daily activity target comprises three parts: activity data (steps or calories), standing data, and PAI data.
2. When a target is achieved, the watch vibrates to congratulate you.

PAI

PAI is an indicator of personal physiological activity, calculated using heart rate data, daily activity intensity, and multi-dimensional physiological data. PAI provides a systematic and comprehensive understanding of your physical condition.

By maintaining a certain intensity of daily activities or workouts, you can obtain your PAI value. According to the HUNT Fitness Study*, maintaining a PAI above 100 helps reduce the risk of cardiovascular death and increase life expectancy.

For more information, launch the Zepp app and navigate to PAI Cards > About PAI.

*The HUNT Fitness Study: A sub-project of the HUNT study, led by Professor Ulrik Wisloff, School of Medicine, Norwegian University of Science and Technology. It has lasted over 35 years and involved more than 230,000 participants.

Idle alert

To encourage hourly activity and reduce the harm of prolonged sitting, the watch monitors your activity. If no activity is detected for more than one minute at the 50th minute of the current hour, and the watch is worn correctly, it vibrates to remind you to exercise. Completing activities before the next hour arrives still allows you to achieve the stand target for the current hour.

Enabling idle alerts: Keep the watch connected with your phone, launch the Zepp app, and navigate to Profile > My devices > Amazfit X > Idle alert. Then, enable the idle alert function.
