HMKWatch Digi 134 Re
How accurate is the step tracking on the HMKWatch Digi 134 Re compared to other devices?
The step tracking is quite accurate—during a 1.2-mile walk measured by Google Maps, the app logged 1.18 miles. This is close enough for most users and comparable to older Fitbit models.
Can I reply to notifications or mark messages as read from the HMKWatch Digi 134 Re?
No, the notification system only shows message previews on your wrist. You cannot reply to messages or mark them as read directly from the watch, which is a basic feature missing compared to many other smartwatches.
Why does the HMKWatch Digi 134 Re app ask for camera and microphone permissions, and can I deny them?
The app requests access to your phone's camera and microphone, but you can safely deny both permissions without losing core functionality like step tracking and notifications. This request may cause trust concerns, but the app works fine without them.
How can I reduce battery drain when using GPS tracking on the HMKWatch Digi 134 Re?
GPS tracking is a major battery hog—a 40-minute walk dropped the watch from 80% to 34%. To save battery, consider disabling GPS when not needed or using the watch's step tracking instead of GPS-based distance logging.
How does the HMKWatch Digi 134 Re compare to a Fitbit for fitness tracking?
The HMKWatch Digi 134 Re offers similar step tracking accuracy to older Fitbits, but lacks features like reply-to-notifications and has heavier GPS battery drain. However, it's free and provides reliable heart rate monitoring during activity, not just at rest.
