You can't use it on Healthy 365. No option for 365 to connect to Honor Health.
Not possible for honor watch 5 to connect with Huawei health app either? I read that some honor watches were still supported by huawei health but couldn't find any confirmation for the watch 5

@HONOR Singapore Really frustrating experience with the phone.

First, tried to clone it from my old phone. Cloning was successful but the phone hanged after restarting. Was told by Shopee cso to factory reset, update firmware then clone. Ok, this was fixed.

Next, tried to restore whatsapp chat history and it failed at the 99% mark, citing restore failed. From here, i have tried all sort of methods to restore including restoring the phone to factory setting again & it still fail to restore. Literally spent 1 whole 初二 to setup this phone Zzzzz.

Now i cannot use the phone & have to continue using my old s23u.

Anyone having this issue?

This is probably Whatspp's issue rather than phone issue.

Whatsapp now has a new way function "transfer chat" to new phone. have you tried that?

I think i tried all methods

1. Transfer chat
2. Restore from phone backup (copied backup file from s23u and pasted inside magic 7 folder)
3. Restore from whatsapp backup on google
4. Clean installation. Restore phone to factory setting & install whatsapp

All the above failed. At first, i also thought that it is a whatsapp issue but i tried restoring it on my s23u; no issue at all.

most likely your whatsapp backup size too large. you try to restore via online backup, that worked for me

for traditional way of copying files over to new phone, you should login to the new phone then paste over the files from old whatsapp folder to new whatsapp folder.

whatsapp, itself can backup to google account. don't find any problem with it. unless your is iOS....then u go n scold iOS and Whatsapp....nothing to do with any of the Android phones.

Not possible for honor watch 5 to connect with Huawei health app either? I read that some honor watches were still supported by huawei health but couldn't find any confirmation for the watch 5
those are old honor devices still under Huawei era.

been using this phone for a week now

so far so good, snappy and nice screen, camera also doing a great job,

only thing is the magic OS IU can have more functionality, such as i am able to access the app info from home page by holding down the app n access from there, they do not have it, which is a bummer

the screen stated 6.8 but doest feel like it, maybe because it is 21:9 , as i come from s23ultra, so abit not used to the ratio

speaker is really solid, loud n bassy

coming from s23u for the past 2 years

i did not have any issue porting over my stuff to magic 7 pro, whatsapp restore was a breeze for me, it is likely the whatsapp or the backup like gdrive is giving the issue, not the phone issue.

of course mine is only 11GB, i did backup videos which is insane to do so, it will take 2 days to restore n phone will contonue to be hot n battery will drain
