Usage Features

The Hoco Y9 is designed for intuitive and user-friendly operation.

Connectivity and Setup:

APP Download: To connect the watch to your mobile phone, you need to download and install the "FitCloudPro" APP. This can be done by searching for "FitCloudPro" in the App Store or Google Play, or by scanning a QR code provided in the watch's settings.
Bluetooth Connection: Before connecting, ensure your phone's Bluetooth is on and the watch is not connected to another device. Keep the device within 10 meters for optimal connection. If connection issues arise, try restarting your phone's Bluetooth, closing and restarting the APP, or restarting the watch itself. The prerequisite for reconnecting is that the device has not been manually unbound.
Bluetooth Unbinding: For Android phones, simply click the unbind button in the APP. For Apple phones, you'll also need to unbind the device from the system's Bluetooth settings.
Data Synchronization: Data synchronization occurs automatically when the device is connected to the APP. You can also manually synchronize data by pulling down the data list on the home page and data interface of the APP.

Watch Operation:

Dial Switch: The watch offers 12 fixed dials, dial push, and custom dials. Dials can be switched by long-pressing the screen on the dial interface or manually through the watch's settings.
Control Panel: Access various quick settings and functions, including "Do Not Disturb" mode, brightness adjustment, settings, find phone, and audio call mode.
Workout Data: To view exercise data after a workout, simply click on the exercise page on the watch.

Important Usage Notes:

Data Storage: The device can store data independently for up to 7 days, meaning you don't need to carry your phone during exercise. Data will be uploaded to the APP once reconnected.
Accuracy of Step Counting: Ensure your height and weight data are accurately filled in the APP, and wear the device correctly for precise step and calorie counting.
Heart Rate Measurement Accuracy: For accurate heart rate readings, ensure full contact between the watch's sensor and your wrist. Keep your body still during measurement. For individuals with darker skin or more arm hair, enable "Enhanced Measurement" in the APP settings.
Sleep Monitoring: The watch needs to be worn normally for accurate sleep monitoring. Errors may occur if worn too late or when falling asleep.
Notification Reminders: To receive notifications, ensure the APP is running in the background, background running permissions are enabled, notification reminders are turned on in the APP, and message notifications are enabled in your phone's system settings.
Bluetooth On/Off: Functions like step counting, sleep monitoring, heart rate monitoring, alarm clock, and sedentary reminders do not require Bluetooth to be constantly on. Data will sync when you open the APP after exercise. However, functions like call reminders, APP notifications, and finding your phone/device require Bluetooth to be continuously on.

Maintenance Features

While the manual doesn't explicitly detail maintenance, several points imply aspects of care and troubleshooting.

IP68 Waterproof: The Hoco Y9 is IP68 waterproof, indicating resistance to dust and immersion in water. This allows for use during activities like handwashing or in light rain, but it's generally advisable to avoid prolonged submersion or hot water.
Troubleshooting Connection Issues: The manual provides detailed steps for resolving issues like the device not being found, Bluetooth connection failures, and repeated disconnections. These steps often involve checking phone settings, restarting Bluetooth, or restarting the APP/watch.
Factory Settings Reset: As a last resort for persistent issues, the option to restore factory settings is available, which can help resolve software-related problems.
Watch Film: The mention of "Watch film: hoco. Smart film cutting machine can be used for film cutting" suggests that screen protectors are available and can be applied to protect the display, contributing to the watch's longevity.

By understanding these functions, usage guidelines, and implied maintenance aspects, users can maximize their experience with the Hoco Y9 Smart Sports Watch.
