Same. Have a gently used Pebble Time laying next to my Amazfit Band 7.

You're gonna want a firewall on your phone if you use the latter. The Zepp app tries to send so much crap to random servers online. Using the Rethink firewall right now. It certainly catches A LOT of stuff.

Cant you use gadgetbridge?

I tried it. Unfortunately, it didn't seem to work with the Amazfit Band 7. It had some issues with my Pebble too, now that I think about it. It's 100% an awesome bit of software though. It's genuinely impressive.

Eh, I'll just keep replacing the battery in my PTS until something else comes along
