Xiaomi Redmi Watch 5 Lite

Hi everyone!

I was wondering if there are any plans for integration with the Xiaomi Redmi Watch 5 Lite? I’ve noticed this model is becoming increasingly popular, so I think it would be a really useful addition.

Does anyone have any information about this? Or perhaps you’re using this watch and would also like to see such functionality implemented?

Looking forward to hearing your thoughts!

Best regards

Hi @Marcin_Michal_Domini, Redmi Watch 5 Lite cannot be integrated directly (the platform is closed).
The only way we can support Xiaomi wearables without the public-facing API is via one of the companion apps. Does the “test sensor” in Notify for Xiaomi show real-time progress?

If yes, the wearable can be used with the Sleep app.

Yes, the basic sensor functions work via the companion app (heart rate, steps tracking), but there’s no way to set up alarm notifications - I mean the smartwatch doesn’t vibrate when Sleep as Android alarm goes off, which is actually one of the key features I was hoping to use.

Is there any chance this could be implemented in the future? Having the watch vibrate for alarms would make for a much better wake-up experience.

Does the movement sensor send data (not step count, but movement of the wearable from the accelerometer)?

Great suggestion! Integration with the Xiaomi Redmi Watch 5 Lite would definitely be a valuable addition, given its growing popularity. Let’s hope this is on the roadmap!

Hi @johnfisher90, Redmi Watch 5 Lite cannot be integrated directly (the platform is closed).
So we can only hope public-facing API is on the roadmap of Xiaomi.
