Yes, you read that right. You can now save and set custom vibes.

To do this, open the app settings and scroll down until you see the vibration map. Once inside, you will see all the options. Just select one, press the Add button to add a new record.

4. Enable Always On Display

"Always on display" is a key feature of most smartwatches. Amazfit Stratos and Verge already have it.

The Always on display screen looks great on the 348 x 442 AMOLED panel, and I like how the screen dissolves into inky blackness to show you the time and other details. While this feature tends to drain the battery a bit more than usual, it's too good to ignore.

However, it is not enabled by default. To activate it, go to Settings and tap on Always on display.

For now, you can choose a digital watch face or a pointer watch face. On the other hand, Always on Display is not customizable.

5. Enable auto-brightness

If you've been using smartwatches and phones for a long time, you should already know that bright screens drain the battery faster.

Luckily, the Amazfit GTS smartwatch comes with the auto-brightness feature. Once activated, the watch will automatically adjust its display based on the environment, ensuring that your smartwatch battery doesn't soon let you down.

To turn it on, swipe down to reveal the Quick Toggle menu and tap the Brightness icon.

6. Control music from your watch

For a smartwatch under $150, the Amazfit GTS offers some great features. However, it lacks internal storage, which prevents you from saving offline copies of your favorite songs.

First calibrate the compass. After that, you can use your watch as a compass and check the conditions around you with the built-in GPS.
