Unfortunately, upgrading a LiteOS smartwatch doesn't work the same way as upgrading an Android Wear/Wear OS device. LiteOS is a proprietary operating system developed by Huawei and other manufacturers, and the upgrade process typically involves different methods depending on the specific model.
Here's what you need to know:
General Tips:
Check for automatic updates: Most LiteOS smartwatches automatically check for and install updates when available. Make sure your watch is connected to Wi-Fi and charged, and check the settings for any automatic update options.
Use the companion app: Many LiteOS smartwatches have a companion app for your phone. This app often provides a way to check for and install updates for the watch. Check the app store for your phone and download the app for your specific watch brand.
Manual update through the watch: Some LiteOS smartwatches allow you to manually install updates through the watch itself. This process usually involves navigating to the settings menu and finding an option for "System updates" or "Software update."
Specific Methods:
Huawei Watch GT/Honor Magic Watch: For these models, you can use the Huawei Health app on your phone to check for and install updates. You can also manually update the watch through the watch itself by navigating to Settings > System > Software update.
Amazfit smartwatches: For Amazfit watches, you can use the Zepp app on your phone to check for and install updates.
Other brands: For other brands using LiteOS, the process may vary. Check the user manual or the manufacturer's website for specific instructions.
Important Notes:
Not all LiteOS smartwatches receive regular updates. Some older models may be stuck on their current software version.
The update process can take some time. Be patient and keep your watch charged until the update is complete.
Make sure you back up your data before updating. This is especially important if you're manually updating the watch.
