Amazfit smartwatch gets several new and powerful features via software update

The Amazfit Balance 2 is not only receiving a new model variant, but also a new software update. Specifically, this updates the firmware to version 3.22.0.4, although according to Reddit users, it's not yet available to all users . It's quite likely that the 16.51 MB update will be rolled out in waves and not to all users at the same time.

The new software feature adds several new functions, including the BioCharge app introduced with the Amazfit Helio Arm Band, which completely replaces the Readiness app. BioCharge is designed to give users intuitive insight into their energy reserves. Especially for athletes at a certain level of training and with a relatively small training volume, such a feature can help avoid overload while also ensuring optimal utilization of their training potential. Heart rate changes can now also be monitored in real time.

There are also changes to the display: a segmented display is now supported, and there are reminders for waypoints. According to Zepp Health, the golf mode can now be used worldwide. The changelog also mentions further changes and improvements, such as improved heart rate monitoring when swimming.
