The monetization strategy of the app has drawn significant criticism from users, who report an overwhelming presence of intrusive ads and aggressive promotion of subscription services.

While some users appreciate the absence of ads in certain versions, the general sentiment leans towards frustration over the monetization tactics employed.

- “No ads and app works seamlessly with the watch but some more fresh watch faces would be highly appreciated.”
- “Too many advertisements for add-on services within the app, no way to turn them off, so you get notifications and areas of the screen taken up with teaser information that can only be accessed after paying a subscription fee.”
- “Zepp is getting worse with each update, now packed with ads for subscription services that I don't need and won't buy, so please stop trying.”
- “I already paid for the watch; why do I now need to see these horribly prominent ads without being able to remove them?”

The reviews indicate that the story aspect of the app is fragmented and lacks coherence, with users expressing frustration over missing features, syncing issues, and inadequate data tracking. While the app fulfills its basic functions, there is a consensus that it could significantly improve by incorporating more detailed metrics and better integration with other fitness platforms. Overall, the narrative surrounding the app's functionality is one of disappointment and unrealized potential.
- “However, it still lacks details like counting the distance you made with specific sneakers, which would be a great addition, or importing data from other apps like Nike Run Club or Runtastic. It fulfills its mission, but it could be much better.”
- “Amazfit used to sync to Quest 2 and now it doesn't. I also used to be able to edit the length of my workouts for when I forgot to stop the watch, but that feature seems to be gone.”
- “I really don't like the way some graphs are displayed, particularly the weight plot.”

Overall, the emotional aspect is tied to the intersection of personal struggles and the desire for technology to better accommodate those needs.

- “Helped me see some areas that I can do better in, and actually using the information has made me feel better.”

Overall, the experience is marked by repetitive and cumbersome tasks that detract from user satisfaction.
