How to Enable and Use Notifications on Yoho Smartwatch Sports
The Yoho Smartwatch Sports offers a practical way to stay updated without constantly checking your phone. You can receive notifications for calls, messages, and app alerts directly on your wrist. Setting up these notifications properly ensures that you never miss important updates while maintaining focus during workouts or daily activities.

1. Prerequisites Before Setup
Before enabling notifications, make sure the following conditions are met:
-
Your Yoho Smartwatch Sports is paired with your phone via Bluetooth.
-
The Yoho Sports or FitPro app (depending on your watch model) is installed and connected.
-
The app has permission to access notifications on your phone.
These settings are essential for the smartwatch to receive alerts from your phone in real time.
2. Granting Notification Permissions
When you open the app for the first time, it will prompt you to grant access to notifications. If you skipped this step earlier, you can enable it manually:
For Android:
-
Open the Settings app on your phone.
-
Go to Apps & Notifications → Special App Access → Notification Access.
-
Find Yoho Sports or FitPro from the list.
-
Turn on the switch to allow notification access.
For iPhone (iOS):
-
Go to Settings → Bluetooth and ensure your smartwatch is connected.
-
Open Settings → Notifications → locate Yoho Sports app.
-
Allow all notification types: Alerts, Sounds, and Badges.
Without notification access, your watch won’t receive any message or app alerts.
3. Enabling Notifications in the App

Once permissions are granted, you can customize which notifications appear on your watch:
-
Open the Yoho Sports or FitPro app.
-
Go to the Device tab.
-
Tap Message Notification or App Notification.
-
Choose the types of notifications you want to receive:
-
Calls
-
SMS
-
Social Media Apps (WhatsApp, Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, etc.)
-
Other Apps
-
You can toggle each option on or off depending on your preference.
4. Receiving Call Notifications
When your phone receives an incoming call, your Yoho Smartwatch Sports will vibrate and display the caller’s name or number.
-
If you want to decline the call, press and hold the touch button on your watch.
-
Some models allow you to mute the call directly from the watch screen.
Note: Answering calls from the watch is not supported since it does not have a built-in speaker or microphone.
5. Message and App Alerts
Once enabled, message notifications will appear instantly when you receive an SMS or app message. The watch will show part of the text on the screen, depending on message length and display size.
-
You can read short messages directly on the watch.
-
Long messages may be truncated but can be viewed in full on your phone.
-
The watch typically vibrates once for each alert to grab your attention discreetly.
6. Managing Notification Settings
You can adjust your notification preferences anytime:
-
To disable all notifications temporarily, turn off Bluetooth or “Do Not Disturb” mode on your phone.
-
Within the Yoho app, toggle off certain app notifications if you find them distracting.
-
For fewer interruptions, enable only call and SMS notifications during workouts.
This flexibility allows you to balance between convenience and focus.
7. Troubleshooting Notification Issues
If your Yoho Smartwatch Sports isn’t receiving notifications, try the following solutions:
-
Check Bluetooth Connection: Make sure your watch is still connected to your phone in the Bluetooth settings.
-
Keep App Running in the Background: Android systems may close background apps to save battery. Lock the Yoho app in the background so it stays active.
-
Re-enable Notification Access: Sometimes, permissions reset after updates—toggle them off and back on.
-
Restart Both Devices: Reboot your phone and watch to refresh connections.
-
Update the App and Firmware: Outdated software can cause sync issues.
Following these steps usually restores full notification functionality.
8. Optimizing Notification Performance

For the best experience, consider the following tips:
-
Keep your phone’s Bluetooth always turned on.
-
Maintain a close range (within 10 meters) between your phone and smartwatch.
-
Avoid battery optimization settings that stop the Yoho app from running in the background.
-
Use the latest version of the app for compatibility with newer message platforms.
These practices ensure smooth synchronization and consistent alerts.
