The Xiaomi smart bracelet is one of the most popular gadgets and although we know many tricks for the Mi Band, there are some situations that can lead us to encounter a problem. One of those cases occurs when we are consulting data on the Mi Band 5 and suddenly the screen turns off without us having finished, having to repeat all the steps we had taken.
However, this happens because the default setting of the screen time on on the Mi Band 5 is not configured to our liking. We will be able to modify it ourselves, although unlike what we have seen on other occasions, these steps cannot be carried out with the mobile, through the Mi Fit app or others that help us get more out of the bracelet.
Change the screen time on on the Mi Band 5
To carry out this modification, we will have to get to work on our bracelet. We know that it is not easy to navigate through the menus on many occasions but it will only be a few steps. First we are going to turn on the screen and we slide until we come across the option called “More” which is the last or the first if we slide in the opposite direction.
Now we will have to access, touching the middle of the screen. We will see a series of options through which we will move until we see where it says “Settings”. Within this section we see another series of options, among which we will find “Automatically turn off screen”. This is the option that allows us to modify the screen time on the Mi Band 5 and where we will take control.
By default the time set is minimal, with only 5 seconds, worse sliding your finger we will find options that go through 6, 7, 8, 9 or 10 seconds.
To finish applying the change we have to mark the desired time option and we will see how the green point moves position. To go back without removing the selection, you just have to touch the invisible button on the screen that is right at the bottom. This will return us to the home screen and each time we interact with the bracelet, we will have more time to see the steps we have taken, the calories burned or how our physical effort has been during the course of the day without having to worry about the screen turns off.
