Hey. I am turning to you for help. I have a redmi watch 5 active and I would like to connect it to the gadgetbridge app, but unfortunately I can’t. The original app for this watch is mi fitness. Has anyone tried pairing it with the gadgetbridge app? If so, could he tell me how to do it, or is there any universal authorization code?

I had success with one old model of Xiaomi band and not with another. There are all kinds of hacks and workarounds with modified versions of the Mi Fitness app to get it working on some models and it may or may not work for you.

Start here and hopefully you can get it working.

Sorry to hear. It is a bit of an issue trying to work with these proprietary, closed systems. Sometimes it works and other times it just doesn’t.
