| The new Heart Trace app for Amazfit smartwatches |
If you have been looking for a reason to stare at your wrist even more than you already do, Zepp Health has just delivered three excellent excuses. The health technology company has quietly rolled out a trio of new Mini Apps for Amazfit smartwatches, expanding the utility of the popular wearables far beyond step counting and notifications.
Available now via the Zepp App Store, these new additions range from a clinical-grade health tool to two surprisingly deep time-killers. Best of all, they are compatible with a wide range of Amazfit devices, including the rugged and recently released Amazfit T-Rex 3 (currently available for $249.98 at Amazon) .
Here is a closer look at what is new on your wrist.
Heart Trace: Your Pulse, Visualized
Currently climbing the charts to sit at the number two spot on the Zepp OS Weekly Top 50 Downloaded Apps Chart, Heart Trace is the standout release of the week. Unlike standard heart rate monitors that simply show you a static number, this app transforms your cardiac data into a dynamic experience.
Heart Trace acts as a live pulse monitor, displaying your heart rate data in real-time on an "easy-to-read, fluid line chart." For fitness enthusiasts, this means you can glance down and see the visual ebb and flow of your heart rate as you transition from a warm-up to a high-intensity interval. The developer describes the interface as a dynamic pulse graph that moves smoothly across the screen, making it easier to interpret cardiovascular effort at a glance rather than just reading a digits-only BPM count.
Pocket-Sized Arcade: Mini 8-Ball and Quick Math
Beyond health and fitness, Zepp Health is clearly leaning into the idea that your smartwatch should also keep you entertained during those brief moments of downtime. Two new gaming apps have hit the store, turning your wrist into a miniature arcade.
First up is Mini 8-Ball. This isn't just a simple tap-and-swipe game; it brings a surprising amount of depth to the table. Users can play a full game of 8-Ball pool against an AI-generated opponent directly on their watch. To add a tactile feel to the digital felt, the game utilizes the smartwatch’s crown to adjust the angle of the pool cue precisely. Once you have lined up the perfect shot, touch input controls the power. It is a clever use of the hardware that makes a tiny pool game feel remarkably immersive.
The second addition is Quick Math, a brain training app designed to keep your mind as active as your body. The premise is simple but addictive: users are presented with a series of equations and must solve as many as possible within a fixed period of time. Scoring high requires a mix of mental arithmetic speed and accuracy, making it the perfect way to wake up your brain during a morning commute or coffee break.
How to Download and the Current King of the Hill
While these new apps are generating buzz, the Zepp OS apps chart still has a reigning champion. Topping the list remains Remotify, an indispensable app for music lovers that provides remote music playback controls for the Spotify smartphone app directly from the wrist.
For Amazfit users eager to try out Heart Trace, sink the 8-ball, or test their math skills, the process is simple. You can download any of these Mini Apps by navigating to the Mini App Store within the Zepp app. Just head to Profile > Select your device > App Store to start downloading.
According to discussions within the Zepp Health community on Discord, these releases are part of a broader push to diversify the kinds of experiences available on the Zepp OS platform. As the ecosystem grows, it’s clear that the modern smartwatch is becoming less of a fitness accessory and more of a comprehensive digital companion.
