Welcome! In front of me I have a Xiaomi SmartBand 8 and I'm gonna show you how
0:05
to enable the phone notifications for this SmartBand on the iPhone. Basically
0:09
if you want to receive the notifications from your iPhone on your SmartBand
0:17
Before we start if you want to receive notifications from your iPhone on your
0:21
SmartBand your SmartBand needs to be paired with your iPhone via the Mi
0:26
Fitness application. Once the devices are paired together we can continue and
0:30
now we need to make sure that the required permissions are allowed for the
0:34
Mi Fitness application and your iPhone to send the notifications to your
0:39
SmartBand. So let's open the settings on our iPhone. In settings let's tap on
0:45
Bluetooth and here you should see list of my devices and on that list you should
0:50
see Xiaomi SmartBand 8. Tap on the info icon next to it and right here you
0:56
should see option called share system notifications and this option should be
1:00
enabled. If you don't see that option you can close the settings for now, open the
1:05
Mi Fitness application on your iPhone, in app tap on device, scroll down, find the
1:15
app notifications and tap on it and here enable app notifications and once you
1:22
enable them wait for a couple of seconds and you should see a pop-up on the
1:27
screen of your iPhone with asking about permission for the notifications if you
1:31
want to allow permission for notifications and maybe if you want to
1:35
pair your band with your iPhone and you need to allow the permission and if you
1:41
see the pair pop-up you need to tap on pair. So once you've done with the
1:44
permissions you can close the app for now, reopen the settings and go back to
1:51
Bluetooth, find Xiaomi SmartBand 8, tap on the info icon next to it and now you
1:56
should see the share system notifications and this option should be enabled. Once it is go back to the main page of settings, scroll down and find
2:05
the option called, rather find the app, Mi Fitness app on the list. So it's gonna
2:11
be right here, find it, tap on it and here make sure that the Bluetooth option is
2:17
enabled. Once it is you can close the settings, you can open the Mi Fitness
2:24
application on your iPhone, tap on device and you should see your Xiaomi SmartBand
2:35
8 on the device page. Scroll down, find the app notifications, tap on them, turn
2:42
on the notifications by tapping on the switch and right here we can customize
2:47
rather enable and disable notifications for different apps and features. For example phone, if you enable this you will receive the notifications about
2:55
calls. If you enable messages you will receive notifications about the messages
3:00
and same for the mail, tick-tock and stuff like that. So scroll through the
3:07
list, enable the notifications for the apps or features you want. If you don't
3:10
see the app or the feature on the list right here you can enable the other
3:14
option and what this option does it enables notifications for every app and
3:19
feature on your iPhone that is not on this list right here. And how it works is
3:25
basically if you enable the notification for a feature or app, for example for
3:30
messages and then you receive the notification from the messages on your
3:35
iPhone that notification will be forwarded to your SmartBand and if you
3:39
disable it it won't be forwarded so you will see the notification only on your
3:43
iPhone. So if you want to see notifications from apps or features on
3:49
your SmartBand you need to enable them right here. Okay and once you're done
3:54
customizing you can close the app because you should be able to receive
3:58
the notifications. So I'm gonna check if I have Discord right here. Let me check
4:08
actually. I do. Am I logged in? Yes I am. Okay so I'm gonna send myself a message
4:17
on Discord. I should receive the notification but I didn't for some
4:25
reason. Oh this time we got it. So we got the notification on our iPhone and we
4:32
should also get it on our SmartBand. So if I wake up the screen, swipe down from
4:36
the top of the screen, open the notification panel. As you can see here
4:41
we have it. So we can tap on it to read it. We can dismiss it. We can clear it and
4:47
stuff like that. Okay and that's how you enable the phone notifications for this
4:52
SmartBand on the iPhone. Thank you for watching. If you found this video helpful
