One thing that has always caught my eye is that almost all smartwatches, and this also applies to wristbands, focus their marketing and almost their very existence on sports. It is true that it is very useful to have certain data when you exercise, but it is also true that these devices are very practical in everyday life, regardless of whether you go a lot or little.

Specifically, the Amazfit watches have proven to be particularly useful even when we are not training, with functions that other watches and bracelets do not have, from the integration of an advanced voice assistant to the possibility of consulting events or use the camera’s remote shutter clock.
Alexa
One of the best features of the latest Amazfit models is the integration of Alexa as a voice assistant. We tested it on the Amazfit GTS 4 Mini, but also on the Amazfit GTR 3 Pro, and it will be available on the new watches that the company announced in Europe a few days ago.
The assistant is configured from the Zepp application, like the rest of the functions on this list, and allows you to get information, control home automation… Of course, it is not as versatile as Alexa on mobile or on speakers from Amazon.
Edit Default Responses
Another very useful function can be found in the models with speakerphones that allow you to answer and make calls. There is an option in the Call Answer SMS settings, which gives us a few phrases to answer calls.
Lo mejor es que esas respuestas son editables, y se pueden usar para responder a las notificaciones de aplicaciones de mensajería, como WhatsApp o Telegram.
Instalar pequeñas apps
Otra novedad de Zepp OS es la instalación de mini aplicaciones, funciones que permiten tener algunas apps muy tontas, como la de tirar un dado, y otras muy útiles, como la de recibir indicaciones de Google Maps en la muñeca, por ejemplo.
Control de cámara
En la sección de laboratorio de la aplicación tenemos una función que nos permite usar el reloj como disparador de la cámara, ideal si queremos tomar una foto en la que salgamos sin hacer un selfie.
Calendario
Por último, si usamos el calendario en el móvil tenemos una función que permite consultar las próximas citas directamente en nuestra muñeca, con una vista de lista en la que aparecerán nuestros eventos, reuniones, etc.
