Battery Percentage on Blaze

[TheAcornWarrior]

Blaze has everything you could think of, yet lacks a battery percentage?!  The icon that does show is too tiny to be easily understood, yet have any idea of how much charge is remaining. Will it make it though the day? You don't know. A percentage would be VERY helpful!  On the connected fitbit app with blaze or on the device itself. ~ I look forward to the addition.

People have been asking for this since the Charge came out. It should be a feature that doesn't even need to be asked for but I doubt Fitbit will ever give it to us.

Never going to happen.

Your help desk and Live chat did have an answer as to when if if the Blaze battery percentage would be available ot the users.  This software does exist on your server so why can't it be available to the user comunity?  And when will this happen?

When you get down to 1 (red) bar, you still have 10-18 hours depending on how often you have the LCD screen on.

When the 1 red bar is flashing, then you are down to single hours.

So....with the former (1 red bar), you could still comfortably do an excercise program knowing it won't die on you.  But with the flashing red bar, if it was doing that for hours before you noticed, it could die before you do anything of length.

Please give us the Battery Percentage on the Blaze.

Are we being misled when the battery looks low (The Tiny Tiny Battery Icon) to when we charge?

If we had the percentage value we'll know EXACTLY what we have, just like our smartphones

Firmware update last night, NO PERCENTAGE %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

I had just noticed that when looking at my Blaze.  I really wish they would integrate something like this.  They did this with the Charge HR, but why not for the Blaze?  I think it would be a nice addition.

12th November 2017, still no show on the Blaze for battery percentage on the latest firmware unless I'm missing something

Dear Fitbit, 

My eyes are 61 years old. Let's discuss trying to see that stinkin' little battery icon. It almost makes me go back to my Charge 2.

Give us a decent power display!!!!

I was squinting at my Blaze and decided to "google search" a method see a decent size battery charge indicator.  I can't believe there is none.  Inexcusable ... but it appears I am not the only one to desire this feature.  All i can say is that when the request has been made to Fitbit and they have not responded, the only option is to vote with our dollars and ditch their product.  Nothing else gets the attention of a company like losing out on sales to competitors.  As they say "Money talks ... everything else walks".
