Amazfit Active becomes the world’s first smartwatch under €200 to fully-integrate AI.

MILPITAS, Calif., July 2, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Zepp Health Corporation (“Zepp Health”) (NYSE: ZEPP), a global leader in smart wearables and health technology, unveils Zepp OS 4, a groundbreaking advancement in wearable technology. This latest iteration integrates OpenAI’s GPT-4o most advanced system, producing safer and more useful responses and enhancing the functionality of Amazfit smartwatches to serve as comprehensive wellness companions.

With a suite of innovative features and enhancements, Zepp OS 4 is set to redefine user experience, offering unparalleled convenience, accuracy, and engagement. Zepp OS 4 comes as part of the sixth software update for the Amazfit Balance and Amazfit Active, which have added over 50 and over 30 new features respectively through software updates since their initial launch – and support for the Amazfit T-Rex Ultra, Falcon and Cheetah series will come later in 2024. Key highlights include:

Enhanced Zepp Flow™ Integration

Zepp OS 4 introduces an upgraded Zepp Flow™, leveraging OpenAI’s GPT-4o technology to facilitate natural language interactions more intelligently. Users can seamlessly control their devices through voice commands, without the need for specific keywords or physical touch. This intuitive interface sets a new standard for smartwatch usability, empowering users to effortlessly manage settings, reply to instant messages from Android apps like WhatsApp (iOS will be supported in the near future), and initiate Bluetooth phone calls – all by simply using their voice.

Expanded Language and Voice Capabilities

With Zepp OS 4, Zepp Flow™ can reply back to the user in spoken English and German – a step up from written replies on the display – with French, Italian, Spanish, Japanese, Korean, and Portuguese voice replies coming in late July. While all of these languages currently support written replies, this additional enhancement ensures a personalized user experience across multiple linguistic preferences, further cementing Amazfit smartwatches as global companions for health and productivity.

Enhanced Bluetooth and Messaging Integration

Incorporating advanced Bluetooth capabilities, Zepp OS 4 enables seamless integration with a wider array of peripherals. Users can now utilize their Amazfit devices to control compatible devices such as Sonos speakers, Garmin cycling meters, and even GoPro and DJI action cameras, enhancing their daily activities and fitness routines.

Innovative Mini Apps and Fitness Solutions

Zepp OS 4 also unveils an expansive ecosystem of mini apps, tailored for health and fitness enthusiasts. The update introduces a range of tools from sports positioning aids to specialized fitness tests. A standout addition is the Workout Extension type of mini app, exclusively available in the app store, catering specifically to sports enthusiasts. Compatible with Zepp OS 3.5 devices like the Cheetah series, Falcon, and T-Rex Ultra, this innovative feature personalizes the user’s watch interface during workouts. By empowering users to personalize their devices according to individual wellness goals, Amazfit smartwatches become indispensable tools for active lifestyles.

DENVER, Dec. 23, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — DogeRide, Denver’s newest and most innovative ridesharing service, is proud to announce the official launch of its pet-friendly hailing app.

“We wanted to create a ridesharing service that embraces that spirit, providing a solution for dog lovers who want their furry companions to be part of their daily lives. DogeRide is more than a rideshare; it’s a celebration of Denver’s dog-friendly culture.”

Designed to bring convenience and joy to pet lovers, DogeRide allows drivers to ride with their dogs as companions while welcoming riders to travel with their furry friends. With Denver being one of the most dog-friendly cities in the country, this service is set to revolutionize how residents and their dogs move around town.

DogeRide aims to address a growing demand for pet-friendly transportation. Riders no longer have to worry about leaving their four-legged friends behind or struggling to find a rideshare that accommodates their pets. The DogeRide app allows seamless booking and ensures all participating drivers are comfortable with canine passengers.

To ensure a safe and pleasant ride, dogs must weigh under 80 pounds and be on a leash or in a crate during the journey.

Denver is a city that thrives on community and outdoor adventures, and dogs are a huge part of that lifestyle,” said Phil Warfield and Divine Tumenta, both Co-founders of DogeRide. “We wanted to create a ridesharing service that embraces that spirit, providing a solution for dog lovers who want their furry companions to be part of their daily lives. DogeRide is more than a rideshare; it’s a celebration of Denver’s dog-friendly culture.”

The app’s user-friendly interface allows riders to indicate when they’re bringing a dog along, ensuring that drivers are prepared for their canine co-pilots. Additionally, all DogeRide drivers are trained to prioritize safety and comfort for both human and canine passengers. From trips to the vet or park to daily commutes, DogeRide is committed to making every journey tail-waggingly fun and hassle-free.

DogeRide also offers unique features tailored to the needs of dog owners and pet-loving drivers. Drivers are encouraged to bring their dogs along for companionship while working, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere for riders. This innovative approach not only enhances the drivers’ experience but also provides riders and their dogs with a sense of familiarity and connection.

“DogeRide is the ultimate ridesharing service for dog lovers because we’ve designed it with the needs of Denver’s vibrant pet-owning community in mind,” said Chad Harris, Co-founder of DogeRide. “Whether you’re heading to the dog park, running errands, or going on an adventure, DogeRide ensures your furry friend can come along for the ride. We’re thrilled to be part of Denver’s pet-friendly ecosystem.”

DogeRide’s mission is to create a safe, reliable, and dog-inclusive transportation option that reflects the unique lifestyle of Denver residents. As part of its commitment to the community, DogeRide plans to partner with local animal shelters and pet organizations to support adoption events and promote responsible pet ownership.
