Question not answered here? The Mio Support Team is happy to help you out; send us an email us any time at [email protected], or call us at 1-877-770-1116 (Mon-Fri: 9am to 5pm PST).

Do I need a smartphone to use FUSE?

To configure and sync FUSE you'll need the Mio GO app, which is available for iOS and Android smartphones. FUSE is compatible with the following devices:

IOS: iPhone 4S and higher, iPod Touch 5th gen.

Android Devices: HTC One (OS v4.3+) & M8, LG G2 & G Pro2, Motorola Moto G, Moto X, Droid RAZR M, RAZR Maxx HD, Droid Ultra, Maxx, Mini (OS v4.4+), LG Nexus 4, 5, 7, Samsung Galaxy S3, S5, S5 Mini, S4, S4 Mini, Note 2, Note 3, Note 10.1, Sony Xperia Z, Z1, Z1 Compact, Ultra, ZR, ZL, Sony Xperia SP, V.

FUSE cannot be synced to or be configured with a Windows phone, Blackberry device, desktop computer, or laptop.

What should I do if I'm getting inaccurate heart rate readings?

Inaccurate readings are usually caused by poor contact between the heart rate sensor and your skin. Make sure that FUSE has a snug fit on your forearm, about 2 finger widths above your wrist bone. If you have a very small wrist, wear FUSE higher on your forearm. You can also try wearing FUSE on the inside of your arm.

What apps can I use with FUSE?

You can only configure and sync data from FUSE with the Mio GO app, but you can transmit heart rate directly to any app that syncs with Bluetooth Smart (4.0) heart rate sensors.

Some popular apps include: Strava, MapMyRun, RunKeeper, Endomondo, Wahoo Fitness, Pear Sports, and DigiFit.

Connect FUSE as a heart rate sensor through the settings of the app you'd like to use.

Can I transmit heart rate from FUSE to exercise equipment?

FUSE transmits heart rate using Bluetooth Smart (4.0) and ANT+ heart rate profiles to equipment such as bike computers, GPS watches, treadmills, rowing machines, and more.

To see if your device/equipment is compatible, look for a Bluetooth 4.0 or ANT+ logo, or view your product's Specifications section on the Mio Global website for a full list of brands and models.

• Get accurate wrist-based heart rate during exercise.
• Track all day activity, including sleep, steps, calories, distance, pace & goal. Tracking sleep requires a simple software update.
• Sync wirelessly via Bluetooth Smart (4.0) to popular fitness apps.
• Works exclusively with Mio PAI app (Personal Activity Intelligence).

User questions & answers

Question:	what's the difference between "mio fuse heart rate training + activity tracker" and "mio alpha 2 heart rate monitor sports watch
Answer:	Hi. Thanks for your question. The FUSE and ALPHA 2 are soon to be quite similar as we're working on giving the ALPHA 2 all day activity tracking.The FUSE needs a smartphone to be set up and synced, where the ALPHA 2 can be set up on the device itself and doesn't need the app. Email or call us if you have specific questions. Thanks, Mio Support [email protected] 877 770 1116
Question:	Can it display time of date
Answer:	It shows time, but not date
Question:	Does this sync with Windows Phone
Answer:	Not aware if it syncs with windows phone. Its heart rate does sync with many apps like runtastic or map my fitness. It does not sync steps or workout stats. Check website mioglobal/support for compatible devices
Question:	Does this display heart rate continuously
Answer:	This feature is NOT available for an Android phone. The "Heart Rate(Always On)" setting is permanently greyed out. Further, MIO does NOT support Android firmware updates, so there is no hope of getting this one feature for which I bought the device.

Monitor the intensity of your workouts and your movement throughout the day for a more comprehensive look at exertion, recovery, and overall fitness than any other product on the market.

FUSE transmits heart rate via Bluetooth Smart (4.0) and ANT+, so you can display and store heart rate data with your smartphone, bike computer, GPS watch, or any other compatible device. Other features include:

Heart Rate

Your heart rate provides insight into how hard you’re pushing yourself and how well you’re recovering. Use FUSE and get the most out of your workouts!

Calories

Why PAI is the Best Activity Metric!

Mio is a pioneer in Heart Rate Technology, and we are now introducing a revolutionary new metric and app that makes sense of your heart rate data. PAI is a free app and exclusive to Mio wearables.

It’s Meaningful: Other metrics such as steps provide limited insights into physical activity, as not all steps are created equal, and not all exercise involves steps. The most accurate way to assess the health benefits from activity is to analyze an individual’s heart rate data.

It’s Simple: The goal is to maintain a minimum score of 100 PAI for maximum health benefits. PAI makes sense of heart rate data.

It’s Personal: PAI is calculated based on age, gender, resting heart rate and maximum heart rate. It is a personalized experience that makes the 100 PAI goal and all PAI calculations customized and accurate for each individual.

It’s Scientific: The Mio PAI algorithm is founded upon data collected from the HUNT Health Study over a 20-year period involving 60,000 participants conducted by the Nobel Prize-winning Faculty of Medicine at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology.

Why Train With Heart?

Heart rate training is the most effective way to track your fitness and improve your performance. That's why Mio develops innovative, easy-to-use products that make heart rate monitoring comfortable and accessible for all athletes.

Key Benefits:

- Understand your physiological response to exercise with real-time, continuous feedback.

- Prevent injury caused by overtraining and improper pacing.

- Improve workout efficiency and effectiveness by training in the appropriate heart rate zone.

- Develop your body’s ability to use fat as fuel.

- Accurately track your progress.

Answer:	Just got this today from Mio Global support; PAI Health Support (PAI Health) Thanks for reaching out and sorry for the delay. We're having some issues with our email system. If you're having any issues please email [email protected]
Question:	Can you set the display to show the heart rate continuously, rather than having to press it to show the display? need to replace my mio alpha
Answer:	In a way you can, yes. First you would have to extend the display Timeout allowance (from 30 second to, say, 2 minutes.) Or you can do what I do: just leave it on the HR screen, and when you want to see your current HR, press the button once (to wake up the display and it's right there.) Hope that helps.

User questions & answers

Question:	Does it come with the normal apple guaranty or is it better to buy it in an apple store
Answer:	Same as Apple Store. And you have 60 days to add AppleCare+ which I highly recommend. I added it online after receiving my watch and making sure all was ok.
Question:	Does this apple watch come with adapter? It says so, but I cannot find it in the box
Answer:	Ours just arrived Nov 2019, and it has an adapter. Contact the seller. The watch looks and feels of great Apple quality. I won’t know until the holiday if it’s working because it is a gift. It has on band that is adjustable, not two and someone else stated below. No box, but in a good bubble wrap envelope sleeve. Fingers crossed that he loves it. If not, it can be returned up to 90 days!? From what I understand.
Question:	What is the difference between the watches that have only gps and the ones with gps+cellular
Answer:	The ones with cellular allow you to use your watch without your phone or wifi. If you get the gps+cellular, you do not need to have the watch activated with cellular service. If you don't have the gps+cellular watch activated with cellular service, it works just like a gps only watch. Also, the gps only watch is 8gb vs 16gb for the gps+cellular.
Question:	What is the difference of the 38mm and the 42mm
Answer:	the 38mm is 4mm smaller than a 42mm and most of the people who can afford these (RPR) would buy the larger one unless you have tiny wrist.
