👋 What do you mean by "MB"? :)
Community Member3/26/2024, 11:35:19 PM
Megabytes
Community Member3/26/2024, 11:35:52 PM
Depends on the end device - some are sending new infos every second where as the Apple Watch e.g. sends only ever 5 secs
Community Member3/26/2024, 11:37:54 PM
Or do you mean via the Websocket API?
Community Member3/26/2024, 11:43:18 PM
yeah it also helps, cuz I need an aprox cuz we are gonna use the SDK on a shopping stand and we must pay for the internet use, so we are trying to figure out how much MBs the API uses to have a clear value to hire
Community Member3/26/2024, 11:49:23 PM
Do you know which devices you gonna use? Then i can tell it exactly :)
Community Member3/26/2024, 11:50:47 PM
Like Apple Watch, Garmin, chestbelts with which app (iOS / Android), etc
Community Member3/26/2024, 11:51:58 PM

Community Member3/26/2024, 11:52:27 PM

Community Member3/26/2024, 11:52:49 PM
I'm already on it
Community Member3/26/2024, 11:53:14 PM
Bcs we only have experimental Xiaomi support in the iOS app
Community Member3/26/2024, 11:53:27 PM
we are testing different solutions and this SDK fits our needs
Community Member3/26/2024, 11:53:44 PM
Ye - but you also need the correct device :)
Community Member3/26/2024, 11:54:12 PM
well lets say Band 7 + iphone 14
Community Member3/26/2024, 11:55:06 PM
Could be working
Community Member3/26/2024, 11:58:11 PM
ok confirmed then, we are gonna use an 8th gen ipad with the band 7
Community Member3/26/2024, 11:58:32 PM
do you know an aprox on bandwidth use knowing this config?
Community Member3/27/2024, 12:05:37 AM
Okay I got the following data: ``` Every time you join the channel (a different ID): {"topic":"hr:1234","event":"phx_join","payload":{},"ref":0} 59 Bytes from client to server As response the client receives the following data: {"event":"phx_reply","payload":{"response":{},"status":"ok"},"ref":0,"topic":"hr:1234"} Which count in 87 Bytes from server to client The update event (for a one digit heartbeat): {"event":"hr_update","payload":{"hr":0},"ref":null,"topic":"hr:1234"} Contains 69 Bytes from server to client (every 5 seconds) For two digits: {"event":"hr_update","payload":{"hr":10},"ref":null,"topic":"hr:1234"} Contains 70 Bytes from server to client (every 5 seconds) For three digits: {"event":"hr_update","payload":{"hr":100},"ref":null,"topic":"hr:1234"} Contains 71 Bytes from server to client (every 5 seconds) The keep-alive packet: {"topic":"phoenix","event":"heartbeat","payload":{},"ref":0} Contains 60 Bytes from client to server (every 10 seconds) As response the client receives the following data: {"event":"phx_reply","payload":{"response":{},"status":"ok"},"ref":0,"topic":"phoenix"} Contains 87 Bytes from server to client ```
Community Member3/27/2024, 12:06:38 AM
So you can calculate the approximated amount of bytes per session time on yourself :)

<@325108360263368704> <@120250275477979136> just want to add, that the Xiaomi MiBand connection is experimental. Especially when it comes to version 7 it depends on the OS version of the band if a connection is possible. So I would suggest to use any other device to have a 100% reliable connection.
