Pair HONOR bands and watches with Petal Health on HONOR 50
Guide to pairing wearables without using Huawei AppGallery on HONOR 50
With its independence from the former Huawei main company, HONOR in addition to the launch of new smartphones, is also following a new line of development by gradually implementing the old system apps that were previously on the Huawei AppGallery. This is the case of Huawei Health which, as we will see in this guide, has a replacement to be installed on HONOR 50 without also having to have Huawei AppGallery and HMS Core (until now strictly necessary).
If you have a HONOR smartband or a HONOR smartwatch, follow the step-by-step guide below to associate the HONOR band or watch on your HONOR 50.
Attention: what follows is the result of my research and tests.
Before starting
Clear cache and data of Huawei App Gallery, Huawei Health and HMS Core.
Uninstall Huawei App Gallery, Huawei Health and HMS Core.
Download Petal Health
On Google Playstore search "Petal Health" or click on the following link https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.betterme.health
Perform the normal installation of the Petal Health app on your HONOR 50.
Configurations on Petal Healt
Open the Petal Health app on HONOR 50 and give all the consents in order to have the biometric data always updated.
In the "Personal" menu, log in with your Huawei ID, the same one you previously used on another HONOR smartphone.
Search and pairing of a HONOR band or watch with Petal Health
From the Devices menu perform the search using the "Scan" or "Add" function.
Activate Bluetooth and location services (GPS) which will only be used to search for bands or HONOR watches nearby for pairing operations.
Select the HONOR band or watch that we want to associate with HONOR 50.
Confirm with a tap on "Connect" then confirm the pairing on the band or watch HONOR.
Access permissions, notifications, battery usage management
Grant all permissions, set the receipt of all notifications, manually start the Health app by authorizing the 3 proposed options.
Warnings
The Petal Health app is under development.
"Health" is the wording with which the app appears both on the HONOR 50 home page and in the list of applications.
Pairing is maintained even with location services (GPS) turned off on both bands and watches.
Bluetooth activation is required to receive notifications.
After the first pairing, the pairing between HONOR bands or watches and HONOR 50 will take place automatically when Bluetooth is activated.
Notifications are received even with the app closed.
The Bluetooth of the HONOR 50 does not detect the HONOR Watch ES and the HONOR Band 6 among the available devices, but finds the HONOR Watch GS PRO.
It is advisable to also apply the steps relating to consents, receiving notifications and battery optimization.
It is not mandatory to block the Health app in the background (scroll down indicated by the closed padlock).
Huawei is limiting some features on HONOR wearables such as remote shooting and use of third-party apps.
