⤳ Download and unzip.
⤳ Put original Resources file in "AmazfitBipTools-1.0.3.0" folder.

I try use this app, but always when I modify picture It weighs more than at the beginning

In the first post is the information "Do not change a size of pictures" Size or weights?
Is there a chance that a resource error will cause a brick band3?

Hi, with "size" he means the resolution. So if an image is 80x28 pixels, you can't change it. You can edit the images as much as you want.

I don't know.

If you only edit pictures contained in Resources folder after decompilation, you can't have problem
