Customizing the watch face on the Redmi Watch 5 Active in different languages involves a few steps, primarily focusing on changing the language of the watch itself and then customizing the watch face.
Changing the Language on Redmi Watch 5 Active
To change the language on the Redmi Watch 5 Active, you cannot do it directly from the watch settings. Instead, you have two main options:
1. Reset the Watch: One way to change the language is by resetting the watch. When you reset, you will be prompted to select a language during the setup process. To reset, swipe up from the main menu, go to System Settings, and select Reset. This method will wipe all settings, so you'll need to pair it with your phone again. However, it allows you to choose your preferred language during setup[4].
2. Change Phone Settings: Another method involves changing the language on your connected smartphone. While this doesn't directly change the watch's language, some users report that changing the phone's language can sometimes influence the watch's display language. However, this method is less reliable and not officially supported for the Redmi Watch 5 Active[1].
Customizing Watch Faces
The Redmi Watch 5 Active supports over 200 customizable watch faces, which can be accessed through the Mi Fitness app. While these watch faces are primarily visual customizations, they do not inherently support different languages for text display. However, you can choose watch faces that are more minimalist or use icons instead of text, which might be more language-agnostic.
To customize watch faces:
- Open the Mi Fitness app on your phone.
- Navigate to the watch face section.
- Browse through available watch faces and select one that suits your preference.
- Some watch faces may allow customization of complications (widgets) that display information like date, time, or fitness data, but these are generally not language-specific.
Language Support
The Redmi Watch 5 Active supports Hindi as a language, among others, but detailed language customization for watch faces is not available[5][8]. If you need a specific language for the watch face, you might consider creating a custom watch face using third-party tools, though this is more complex and not officially supported by Xiaomi.
In summary, while you can change the language of the Redmi Watch 5 Active by resetting it or potentially through phone settings, customizing watch faces in different languages is limited. You can choose visually appealing watch faces, but they do not inherently support multiple languages for text display.
