Amazfit has an SDK for development on their ecosystem. It is not a difficult one. I’ve personally owned them for almost 4 years now and don’t see myself ever swapping to the big brands considering the long battery life (2 weeks on mine) compared to the competition. The only rub is no UDisc…but hey, I’ve got insane snowboard tracking, Strava, all sorts of other 3rd party app integrations that work great. Amazfit makes excellent watches that don’t start in the $300+ range. For example, you can get a fully featured Active 2 for $100. This is more congruent with bringing in a wider base of watch based users as it can cast a broader net to the general disc golf population through a much more affordable device. A similarly spec’d Garmin will cost me $700+. The active subreddit has over 40k subs, the brand constantly releases updates/security patches/new models, they’re worldwide, and some of the youtube influencers have almost 1 million views on their Amazfit videos. So the exposure and marketing aspect is well worth the development imho due to the global reach and targeted American demographics. UDisc should seriously consider these aspects.
