The new Mi Band 5 is just around the corner but its first watchfaces have already infiltrated for giving us customization possibilities in the Mi Band 4. This sports bracelet still has a lot to offer us and even more so if we have the possibility to add the design from the main screen that will have the most current Xiaomi sports bracelet.
It is not the first time that the new watchfaces come to light earlier than expected and it is that the Mi Fit application in its beta versions leaves many clues. From the hand of one of the most popular websites to customize all kinds of Xiaomi sports watches we have been able to get it and now we will show you how to install them on your Mi Band 4, making us enjoy our peculiar Mi Band 5 before the rest.
Steps to install watchfaces on Mi Band 4
Whichever style of watchface you like the most of the Mi Band 5 you are going to be able to use it on your sports bracelet, we just have to follow the instructions we give you step by step and you will be able to install the Mi Band 5 watchfaces successfully. Pay attention to the indications:
- The first thing we should do is have the Mi Band 4 and the mobile that we have linked at hand.
- And now it’s time to download the .bin file of the watchfaces that you like the most on your mobile:
Options are as follows: Digital watch with step counter – Digital watch with heart rate and steps – Large analog watch – Full analog watch
- Once downloaded, what we will do is enter My Fit and change the watchface that we have for one that we do not like.
- Then we deactivate the Bluetooth of the mobile to avoid mistakes.
- Now we go to the file explorer of our mobile and in downloads we move the .bin file that we downloaded before to the following path:
- Internal storage> android> data> com.xiaomi.hm.health> files> watch_skin_local.
Now it is time to do name exchanges between the .bin that we have downloaded and the .bin that is inside the watch_skin_local folder. Then you just have to move both files from the site and go back to the Mi Fit application to reinstall that watchface. In order not to get involved, we can delete the PNG image inside the folder.
Other functions that will come to the Mi Band 4
After having followed the steps that we have explained, we will already have our Mi Band 4 with the appearance of the new Xiaomi bracelet , however there are options that we can not yet use such as the new sport modes or integration with the PAI service. However, we do not need to buy the new bracelet if what we need are these options that will also be available on the Mi Band 4.
The tricks of the Mi Band 4 on many occasions are also valid with the Mi Band 3 and in this case the same would happen with the many functions that will be done, in addition to those that we do not yet know.
