Amazfit Watch faces

since i installed the first unofficial watch faces i have noticed that the band consume over 20% of battery per day, until i restored an official watch face. Now the situation seem to be stable.
any ideas?

What exactly watch faces did you use?

this one: https://amazfitwatchfaces.com/mi-band-4/view/578
made by myself, supposed to be a battery proof watchfaces

Showing Pulse on WF is battery draining.

Because it looks like each time you try to see the value, it launch Mi Band's Pulse calculation = battery drain

290 KB!!!! i have 60kb))) limit is 350kb
[mention]huffmars[/mention] looks like there is some connection with huge images which miband have to parse every time and layout... so search for lighter one or repack this one

@lvpokka is the battery life highly dependent on the size of the bin file? I know that the size of the bin file will depend on images.
Will the features (pulse, calories, steps, distance, time, date etc.) on the WF also drain the battery faster?
Example: WF with only time displayed will it less drain the battery than a WF with time, steps and pulse?

I have steps and distance with out pulse and battery estimation 26 day

El último firmware se bebe la batería en 4 días con un uso normal, cada 4 horas 5% de batería menos increíble el nuevo firmware, espero lo solucionen rápido.

The latest firmware is drunk the battery in 4 days with normal use, every 4 hours 5% less incredible battery the new firmware, I hope they solve it fast.

They're about the same figures as I've been experiencing, the battery life is shocking at the moment.

Hopefully a new firmware sorts it, & soon!

I’m experiencing the same problems with the battery drain. I now suspect the app I use to upload watchfaces to the band is the cause. It keeps the connection open and does something that drains the battery. (I’m using AmazTools on iOS).
Last night in 6 hours 10% drain. A few days ago 40% drain in 24 hours.

Unpairing the mi band and pairing again seems to solve it for me. Now the last 4 hours only 1% drain, with a custom watch face installed.

Reboot Mi Band 4.

I also had battery drain after install my Watchface that as animations, and just reboot in Options.

It worked for me.

Rebooting the device is even better I think. But don't forget to close the AmazTools app. You never know what it does on the background after the band is rebooted.

My smartphone is Android, so no AmazTools.

My Mi band 4 battery hardly lasts a day now......It started with battery life of 4 days at max.. then kept on reducing... Solutions??
