Dear Community
I would like to use the Xiami Mi Smart Band 5 as a pedometer.
With FitBit you can set, for example, per hour, that if you haven't moved much, you receive a stimulation
by vibrating. Can this also be set similarly here?

Many thanks

Hi Fdenzler
The Mi Band has "Idle Alerts" and when these are activated it vibrates if no activity is detected for at least 1 hour. You can configure the start and end time so that it does not vibrate at night or over midday. However, the duration (1h) cannot be changed.
Not specific to the question but possibly also worth knowing: Xiaomi recently launched the Mi Band 6, with a larger display and blood oxygen content measurement (SpO2) and I would recommend this, I have just switched.
