We are on a few dates where giving mobile phones is something very common and possibly you are one of the lucky ones who has received a new smartphone, which makes us ask ourselves some problems and situations. Among what we can find is the need to change the Mi Band 5 or Mi Band 4 to the new mobile , a very simple and fast process where we should not complicate ourselves.
Although it is something that is not too mysterious, if we do it quickly and uncontrollably we can lose data, sleep records or sports activities , that’s why we want to help you. The smartband has many functionalities and although you may already know many tricks for the Xiaomi Mi Band , you have never considered this need.
Connect your old mobile and the Mi Band one last time
To start the process to change the Mi Band mobile where we have it linked, what we must do is focused on the old mobile. In it, we access the Mi Fit application and activate the mobile’s Bluetooth so that all the data is linked and synchronized. This is very important since if we don’t we will lose some data that has not been synchronized.
Although many of you will know that there is an option to unlink the bracelet, this is not related to the mobile, but to the account. For this reason we do not have to do anything other than the next step and under no circumstances should we unlink the Mi Band from the mobile.
Uninstall Mi Fit to avoid mistakes
Once all the data from the Mi Band 5 has been synchronized with the account on our old mobile, we will proceed to uninstall the Mi Fit app. We can do this in Settings> Applications> My Fit> Uninstall.
In addition, afterwards we recommend turning off the bluetooth of the old mobile or turning off the mobile completely if we no longer need it. In this way in the new mobile the connection will be faster and we will not have errors.
Use the same account on the new mobile
Now we move on to the new mobile, where we will need the Mi Fit application that we can download in the Google application store or in the App Store if we have changed to an iPhone. Once inside the application we have to log in with the same account that we had on the previous mobile , we can try to do it with the email and password manually or with the help of Google or other tools where we can have linked the Mi Band.
Once we access, we go to the “Profile” section where the Mi Band 5 device must appear. If they do not appear, it is because our Mi Band is associated with another account and we have to close the session in it app to find the same method that we use in the previous mobile.
When we get it, we just have to touch Profile> My Band 5 and access the application alert section to give the necessary permission again so that the alerts from the apps reach us on the bracelet, as well as in the calls or other data that we want to have configured. With all this we will have managed to change the Mi Band 5 to the new mobile without having lost anything.
