Nice! Even without modification, #GadgetBridge can read this sub-£20 smartwatch's data.
Gets sleep, steps, and heart rate without issue. Seems pretty accurate - picked up my exercising just now.
Few missing bits like notifications (which I'll try to diagnose today) and some of the more esoteric settings.

I'm trying not to be a quantified self-indulgent twat who is driven solely by gamification.

But my watch has just given me gold stars in steps and sleep!
