Xiaomi has started to seed a new software update on its Mi Band 4 fitness tracker that adds an auto screen-off feature. Over the last few weeks, users have been talking about the latest version, and finally, they have a chance to use it in reality. Users in Turkey are the first to witness the new firmware on their modern trackers. The firmware version 1.0.7.04 is now pushing that can change the behavior of the screen timeout.
Users can alter the screen timeout setting as they need, and by default, it will be set to 5 seconds. The other settings for the screen timeout delay are 6, 7, 8, 9 & 10 seconds.
In the latest software, Xiaomi has added custom watch faces & improved swim tracking to the wearable. As per the user’s demand, Mi asked users to submit their favorite watch faces that they want to see on their bands.
The most voted categories were Anime & game characters that are now present in the custom watch faces. Swim tracking is another area that needs to be fixed, and Xiaomi did that. After the previous version, the Mi Band 4 is now more accurate in getting swim tracking records in various conditions.
The new ‘auto screen off’ update is rolling out in Turkey & in a few days it will hit other countries. To check for the latest firmware, connect the Mi Band 4 to the Mi Fit app.
