The GOQii Smart Vital is a wearable fitness tracker designed to help users monitor various health metrics and track their physical activity. It functions as a personal health companion, providing real-time data and insights to support a healthier lifestyle. The device is intended for use by individuals who are healthy enough to engage in exercise and is not a medical device.
The primary function of the GOQii Smart Vital is to track and display key health and fitness data. It measures steps taken, heart rate (HR), distance covered, and calories burned. Additionally, it can measure blood pressure (BP) and blood oxygen saturation (SpO2). The device also includes features for tracking different types of exercise and offers various utility functions like a stopwatch and alarms.
The core functionality revolves around continuous monitoring of activity and vital signs. The device's sensors collect data throughout the day, which is then displayed on its screen and can be synced with a companion mobile application for more detailed analysis and historical tracking. This integration with the app allows users to view graphs and comprehensive details of their activities and health metrics over time.
For heart rate measurement, the device provides an on-demand reading. Users navigate to the heart rate option on the display and initiate the measurement. Similarly, for SpO2, users access the SpO2 icon and start the measurement, with a recommendation to avoid body movement for accurate readings.
Blood pressure measurement on the GOQii Smart Vital requires calibration with a cuff-based blood pressure monitor (sphygmomanometer). This calibration process involves taking three blood pressure readings from the cuff-based monitor while wearing the GOQii tracker, ensuring it is connected to the app. This step is crucial for the device to provide blood pressure readings.
Exercise tracking is another significant function. The device offers multiple exercise modes such as Walk, Run, Workout, Cycle, Aerobics, Basketball, Badminton, and Soccer. Users can select their desired exercise, and the device will track the activity, providing a countdown before starting and displaying exercise details.
Beyond health tracking, the GOQii Smart Vital includes several other features to enhance user experience. These include multiple wallpaper options (analog and digital) that can be changed according to preference, five different brightness levels for the screen, and adjustable screen timeout options ranging from 5 to 30 seconds. An inbuilt stopwatch with lap time recording is also available. For convenience, up to five alarms can be set via the companion app, and a "Phone Finder" feature helps locate a misplaced phone nearby.
The device's interface is designed for easy navigation. Users can activate the screen and move between different data displays by swiping up, down, right, or left. A dedicated home button at the bottom of the display allows users to return to the main screen from any other display.
The GOQii Smart Vital is designed for straightforward and intuitive use, focusing on ease of access to health data and activity tracking.
Linking with the App: The initial setup involves linking the GOQii Smart Vital with its companion mobile application. This process requires turning on Bluetooth on the mobile phone and keeping both the phone and the Smart Vital close to each other. The app searches for the device, and upon a "Send Link" request, a code is displayed on both the app and the Smart Vital screen. Users then tap the "Link" button on the Smart Vital after matching the code, establishing a connection that allows for data synchronization. This linking is essential for unlocking the full potential of the device, including detailed data analysis, setting alarms, and accessing coaching advice.
Activating and Navigating Screens: To activate the device's screen, users simply swipe up, down, right, or left on the display. Once active, the same swiping gestures are used to navigate between different screens, allowing users to view various metrics and options. A physical home button located at the bottom of the display provides a quick way to return to the main home screen from any other active screen.
Viewing Steps, HR, Distance, and Calorie Details: The home screen of the GOQii Smart Vital typically displays real-time steps, heart rate (HR), and temperature values. For more detailed information on steps, HR, distance, and calories, users can swipe from bottom to top on the screen. Tapping on a specific option will then reveal respective graphs and detailed data collected throughout the day, offering a comprehensive overview of their activity.
Measuring Heart Rate (HR): To measure heart rate, users swipe from right to left on the Smart Vital screen until they reach the GOQii Smart Vital option. Tapping on this option opens it, and then tapping on the Heart Rate icon initiates the measurement process, recording the user's heart rate.
Measuring Blood Pressure (BP): The blood pressure measurement feature requires prior calibration. After calibration, users can access the BP measurement option on the device. It's crucial that the tracker is worn correctly and connected to the app during measurement. The device will then display systolic (SYS), diastolic (DIA) blood pressure, and heart rate.
Measuring Blood Oxygen Saturation (SpO2): Similar to HR measurement, users swipe from right to left to find the SpO2 option. Tapping on the SpO2 icon starts the measurement. For accurate readings, it is advised to remain still and avoid body movement during this process.
Tracking Exercise: To track an exercise, users swipe from right to left until they reach the "Exercise" option. Tapping on the Exercise icon presents a list of available activities. After selecting an exercise mode, a countdown (3-2-1) begins, and the device starts tracking the activity, displaying relevant exercise details.
Other Features:
Maintaining the GOQii Smart Vital ensures its longevity, accuracy, and hygienic use. The manual provides specific tips for care and wearing.
Cleaning and Drying: Regular cleaning and drying of the GOQii Smart Vital are recommended. Particular attention should be paid to the area under the device and the device pocket, as these areas can accumulate sweat and debris. Keeping the device clean helps prevent skin irritation and maintains sensor accuracy.
Wearing Comfort and Air Circulation: Users are advised to wear the GOQii Smart Vital slightly loose. This allows for adequate air circulation between the device and the skin, which is important for comfort, especially during extended wear or physical activity. Proper air circulation also helps prevent moisture buildup that could lead to skin issues.
Skin Product Usage: Minimizing the usage of skin products (such as lotions, creams, or perfumes) in the area where the GOQii Smart Vital is worn is suggested. Certain chemicals in these products can potentially interact with the device materials or cause skin irritation.
Addressing Skin Irritation: In the event of any signs of skin irritation or other discomfort, users are instructed to immediately stop using the GOQii Smart Vital and contact customer support. This emphasizes user safety and prompt action for potential adverse reactions.
