Convert a file to FT

To convert other file formats to the "Wearable Device Font File" file type, you need software like Amazfit Watch Faces or a similar tool.


About FT files

The .FT file extension is heavily fragmented and lacks a single universal standard. Primarily, it functions as a Wearable Device Font file for Huami Amazfit and Xiaomi smartwatches. Alternatively, it is widely used as a Broadcast Graphics Template by Chyron and CasparCG Server. Other niche uses include Sontek FlowTracker2 measurement data, Apache Arrow Feather dataframes, and NCBI biological sequence tables.

The main disadvantage of .FT files is their highly proprietary nature. Amazfit font files are raw binary packages that cannot be installed on standard operating systems like Windows or macOS. Chyron templates require expensive broadcast software and are completely useless to everyday users. These limitations make the files difficult to share, view, or edit without the exact original software.

Users typically want to convert .FT smartwatch fonts into standard TTF or OTF files to edit the glyphs, or export broadcast templates into standard video formats like MP4. However, because these formats are closed and undocumented, standard online converters usually fail. The internal structure depends entirely on the parent software - ranging from embedded Flash graphics to raw trace data. If our analysis detects a supported embedded format, viewing or extracting the internal content may still be possible.

Convert.Guru analyzes your FT file, detects the exact format, and lets you read the text inside.

Users also converted PDF, CHR, SFP, ABF and MTR files.

The FT Converter Story

The history of Convert.Guru began over 25 years ago in California with Tom Simondi’s file-format database. A former contributor to Space Shuttle development and a software pioneer of the 1980s, Simondi established a trusted resource for file type analysis that was even referenced by Microsoft Windows XP. Today, we use modern technology to process and convert thousands of file formats while continually improving our FT converter.
