To restart your MiBand, you'll need to navigate through its on-screen menus to find the "System" option and then select "Reboot." This process will restart the device while preserving all your personalized settings.
Step-by-Step Guide to Restarting Your MiBand
Restarting your MiBand is a straightforward process that can often resolve minor issues or refresh the device's performance. Follow these steps on your MiBand screen:
- Access the Main Menu: Wake up your MiBand screen and swipe through the available options.
- Locate 'System': Continue swiping until you find the "System" menu option.
- Select 'System': Tap on the "System" option to enter its sub-menu.
- Choose 'Reboot': Within the "System" menu, you will see a choice for "Reboot." Tap on this option.
Selecting "Reboot" will initiate the restart process for your MiBand. The device will turn off and then automatically power back on, retaining all your data and settings exactly as they were before the restart.
Understanding Reboot vs. Power Off
It's important to distinguish between rebooting and powering off your MiBand:
- Reboot: This action simply restarts the tracker. It's like restarting a computer; the device cycles off and then back on, keeping all your settings, data, and configurations intact. It's an excellent first step for troubleshooting minor glitches.
- Power Off: This option completely switches off the fitness tracker. You would then need to manually power it back on, typically by connecting it to its charger or pressing a specific button, depending on the model.
For most troubleshooting and refreshing purposes, a simple reboot is sufficient and recommended.
