If you are holding a Windows Phone and feeling sad because the cheapest fitness band–Xiaomi Mi Band–doesn’t support it, this post will put a smile on your face. Developed by Dahrkael, MiBand Tracker is the first unofficial app for the band. The app can right now track your steps, calories burnt, show battery left in percentage, show alarms with the option to turn it on and off.
That said, the app is currently in private beta. So if you opt-in, be prepared to get some bugs and with full expectations to report them back to improve the app for its final release. If you arent ready, wait for the final release or at least the public beta appearance of the app.
The Xiaomi Mi Band was unveiled in July last year and is known for its super low price and quality build. It resembles a bracelet in its design and can be worn on either hand or the neck. It has a fitness tracker and sleep monitor built-in and comes with a smart alarm. It is water-resistant and has a 30-day standby power. It costs just $13 to purchase and is already quite a rage in China.
If you are interested in participating in the beta, you need to email [email protected] with your MS account used on the phone.

Does this app support English, or just Spanish?
As of now no. We are expecting that it will get an english translation once it hits public beta.
I am unable to download it….
It’s a such great news on Sunday :) I’ll forward to release it as public beta!
Thank you for good news :) Has this app a “smart alarm” that can wake you up in REM phase? I want to buy MiBand only for this ability.
yes, it has this option
Something new about this app? :P
It recently got English translation and went public beta
Hi!
I’m trying to get this app on my Lumia 535. Any tips on how I can download it? It doesn’t seem to show up in my Phone’s Store.
It shows in my storage, but whenever I try to install it, it says that I don’t have permission to perform this action, do you have any ideas why is that so?
You may need to unlock your phone.
I have question about Lumia 535. Other MI Band application correctly works with band ?
No Official App available.
