Fitness trackers working with our Mix? - Xiaomi Mi MIX Questions & Answers

I'm thinking on getting a Fitbit Blaze fitness tracker. The Mix is not listed on the fitbit list of approved/working Xiaomi phones.
I have read Samsung's s2 & s3 work, but there are issues installing apps and new watch faces.
What's everyone using for their fitness tracking?

I've used Pebble Time 2 and currently use Xiaomi (Huami) Amazfit Pace. (Closest available analogue to the anticipated Pebble Time 2 HR. | A pox on Fitbit for killing the device just before launch).
PSA: MIUI on the Xiaomi Mix has very aggressive memory management and you'll have to lock the companion app in order to prevent the phone from killing it in the background.

[Q] Best OS/variant for use w/ Nexus 6?

Hi all. I just bought a Galaxy Gear cheaply and it has the latest (MK7) Android revision on it. I downloaded some Gear Manager and other APKs on here to my Nexus 6 and managed to get it to pair, but I do not get weather or dual city clock face functionality. Also some app keeps crashing on my phone after certain events, like hanging calls up. I think it was called GoManager. My phone is rooted but my watch is fully un-modded.
Which OS is the best thing for me to get the most functionality out of this watch given that I do not use a Samsung device, and especially that I use a Nexus 6? I heard of Null, and of course Tizen. Also TizenMod. What should I do to have the best experience & where can I find an up to date guide on what to do with my watch, phone, & PC? I was hoping to have at least a watch face with the weather, my notifications, & syncing of camera snaps from the watch over to my phone (bare transfer every X minutes is fine).
Thanks so much.

Have you tried connecting with Google Fit (the default app)? I am using that and have had no problems, exercise tracking works. Have not tried any other apps.
Also make sure you have the latest AW for G2 Neo. Here is the one I am using, it is dated 2016/07/08 - https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=73542831&postcount=4

NFC problem P30 Pro

Phone (updated to firmware 124) have problem with several NFC source. Have option for "running application is preferred", but this isn't working. For example default NFC payment is Google Pay. Another application can't pay. Phone haven't reaction if another payment application running on the top.
Same with Gluco Navi NFC - glucometer. Fully compatible with S health, on the S7 working without any problem. On P30 Pro only beep and vibrate, but data isn't transferred.
Same is very very poor compatibility with Samsung Gear S3. Yes, Huawei watch is in package - but clearly - this isn't really comparable watch (only up time is very nice).

Can't say much about NFC as I use Samsung pay but I do have the p30 pro connected with my Galaxy Watch 46mm LTE and everything that worked on my s10+ works splendid with the p30 pro. Absolutely everything.

Xiaomi automated task questions.

I have been a Samsung user for many years but the price is getting too much now. Really like the sound of the Mi Pro phones.
Do these Xiaomi phones do what the Samsung does like tethering and on the Galaxy phone you have Bixby routines which i use to auto switch on tethering when getting in the car (connects to Bluetooth) etc.
Is there any major software differences to be aware of?
Thanks

Is there a Samsung watch App that in realtime exchanges the GPS track to a Samsung (or Android) smartphone?

Anyone know of a hiking GPS tracking app that runs on Samsung watch Active 2 and uses Active 2 or 3's hardware GPS, but it allows the track to be shown on a large screen Android/Samsung phone in real time (Not after the activity is completed)
I have tried both Locusmaps and Samsung health app which runs well - Locusmap does not use GPS hardware on the watch (it uses GPS from phone), and Samsung health app does not export track in real time to phone screen.
