Gadgetbridge 0.37.0 has been released and will appear on F-Droid soon!

One highlight is Makibes HR3 support was contributed by Lukas Schwichtenberg. Thank you Lukas for the great work.

We also managed to support the Amazfit Bip Lite, but just like with the Mi Band 4 support, unfortunatly this sounds better than it is.

WE CANNOT RECOMMEND THIS DEVICE TO OUR USERS, SINCE YOU HAVE TO INSTALL MI FIT SOMEWHERE, CREATE AN ACCOUNT AND GET A DEVICE SPECIFIC AUTH KEY FROM MI FIT ON A ROOTED PHONE

Other methods then the above might exist, but in the end you need Mi Fit with an account once, then get hold of your secret auth key, and input that in Gadgetbridge.

There are some contradicting claims about the Bip Lite, so it might be possible to pair without a key. If that should be the case, we will release an update.

As always, we want to remind you that we will move completely to Codeberg this autumn. The wiki can already only be updated there, while all wiki changes will be mirrored to github. Please create a Codeberg account, if you want to modify the wiki or if you want your issues/PRs and comments to be properly assigned to you again on Codeberg.

The reason for the move in one sentence: A free project deserves a free home!
