Zepp Health has rolled out a new firmware update (6.1.12.3) for the Amazfit Active 2 smartwatch.
Though it’s only 13.49MB, this update includes several important feature improvements that enhance user experience.
What’s New in the Amazfit Active 2 Firmware Update (6.1.12.3)
Here’s a breakdown of the key features introduced in this firmware update:
- More accurate Readiness Score based on HRV & sleep quality
- Brighter Always-On Display for outdoor visibility
- Less disruptive workout notifications
More Precise Readiness Score – Now Smarter Than Ever
If you wake up feeling fatigued, only for your Amazfit Active 2 to tell you that you’re “fully recharged,” then don’t worry, you’re not alone.
The smarter Readiness Score has been reported to be overly optimistic, not weighing heavily enough on poor sleep or low HRV (heart rate variability).
With this update, that is no longer the case. The new algorithm is meant to be more representative of the way that you actually feel, particularly after a bad night of sleep or if your body is not feeling its best.
We will see if it works well for people on a day-to-day basis, but this certainly appears to be a positive step.
Brighter Always-On Display – Easier to Read Outdoors
Ever had the problem of not being able to see your Amazfit Active 2 screen outside on a sunny day? Zepp Health has optimized the always-on display for easier readability outside.
You may think it doesn’t make much difference, but on a sunny day, the extra brightness can be a big boon.
Less Disruptive Workout Notifications Nothing can ruin the ambiance of a workout like a pesky pop-up during a run or bike.
Notifications will no longer be as interruptive, keeping you engaged without distracting interruptions.
Seamless Workout Experience with Smarter Notifications
Previously, mid-run or mid-ride notifications would often disrupt workouts, breaking focus at crucial moments.
With this update, Amazfit Active 2 now delivers alerts in a less intrusive manner, ensuring that important notifications don’t interfere with your exercise routine.
Rather than abrupt pop-ups, alerts now appear more subtly, allowing you to stay fully engaged in your workout.
This improvement makes fitness tracking more seamless, helping you maintain your rhythm without unnecessary distractions. 🚴♂️🏃♂️
New Meditation App – Mindfulness on Your Wrist
Amazfit has introduced a built-in Meditation App, making it easier than ever to take a quick mindfulness break whenever needed.
This new feature allows users to engage in guided meditation sessions directly from their smartwatch—no phone required.
Whether you’re looking to reduce stress, regain focus, or simply relax, this app provides a convenient way to incorporate mindfulness into your daily routine.
To start a session, simply navigate to Apps > Meditation on your Amazfit Active 2 and begin unwinding anytime, anywhere.
How to Download the Amazfit Active 2 Update?
The update is being rolled out progressively, starting with Europe and the US. To check for it, open the Zepp application, navigate to Settings > Firmware Update, and follow the prompts.
It’s a little update, but it touches on some of the key features that make the Amazfit Active 2 just a little bit smarter and easier to use. We will see if it lasts the test of real usage.
Final Thoughts – Is This Update Worth It?
While this firmware update may seem small (13.49MB), it significantly improves the user experience by:
- Making the Readiness Score More Accurate
- Improving outdoor display visibility
- Minimizing workout distractions
- Adding a helpful Meditation App
If you use your Amazfit Active 2 for fitness tracking, sleep monitoring, or stress management, this update is definitely worth installing.
