Published in HUAWEI Band 6 Settings 3 mins read

To enable the "Raise to wake" feature on your HUAWEI Band 6, you need to adjust its settings through the Huawei Health app on your smartphone. This convenient feature allows your band's screen to automatically light up when you lift your wrist, making it easy to check the time or notifications at a glance.

Activating Raise to Wake on Your HUAWEI Band 6

Enabling "Raise to wake" is a straightforward process completed within the Huawei Health application on your paired phone. Follow these steps to activate it:

  1. Open the Huawei Health App: Ensure your HUAWEI Band 6 is successfully connected to your smartphone via Bluetooth. Launch the Huawei Health app, available on both Android and iOS.
  2. Navigate to the Device Details Screen: From the app's main interface, tap on the "Devices" tab (usually found at the bottom of the screen). Then, select your "HUAWEI Band 6" from the list of paired devices to access its specific settings.
  3. Access Device Settings: On the HUAWEI Band 6's device details screen, scroll down or look for an option labeled "Device settings" or simply "Settings" and tap on it.
  4. Enable Raise to Wake: Within the Device settings menu, locate the "Raise to wake" option. Tap the toggle switch next to it to turn it on. Once enabled, your band's screen will activate automatically when you lift your wrist.

Understanding Raise to Wake

The "Raise to wake" function is designed for quick and effortless interaction with your smart band. Instead of pressing a button or tapping the screen, a simple lift of your wrist triggers the display to illuminate, showing you the watch face, incoming notifications, or activity data. This feature enhances convenience during daily activities, workouts, and when checking the time discreetly.

Tips for an Enhanced Experience

  • Proper Fit: For optimal performance of the "Raise to wake" feature, ensure your HUAWEI Band 6 is worn snugly on your wrist. A loose fit might hinder the band's ability to accurately detect wrist movements.
  • Battery Consumption: While highly convenient, enabling "Raise to wake" may slightly impact your band's battery life as the screen activates more frequently.
  • Troubleshooting: If "Raise to wake" isn't working as expected, verify that it is indeed enabled in the Huawei Health app. You can also try restarting your band and phone, or checking for any available software updates for both your band and the Huawei Health app.

By following these simple steps, you can fully utilize the "Raise to wake" feature on your HUAWEI Band 6, making your interactions with the device more intuitive and efficient.
