I just wanted to say thanks!

I updated today and it's working great.  Notifications are fantastic now (I was using a 3rd Party App, but I no longer need it now)

 

I'm just so sick of reading all the negative comments on here, I just wanted to say thanks because I'm actually a happy Blaze user.  I knew what I was buying before I bought it, so any additional features are welcomed as far as I'm concerned, not something I'm entitled to.

 

I love the new watchfaces too!!

@twest826 - No problem... my only advice is keep checking.

Good customer service is solving the customer's problem. Great customer service is making sure it never happens again.

Despite the Fitbit twitter accounts and the forum saying it's being rolled out again (all be it in small quantities) I've been told it's still being 'tested' and will be rolled out in due course. Once again misleading information.

Maybe before screaming "misinformation" looking at the top of the thread...

@kenlpeters there's a new sticky post that details the update started yesterday at the top of the help page. That's what I referenced...

I think they should have included this since this has been asked about for so long.

Fitbit can't be bothered to fix a big bug that takes minutes and lasted years

This is one of those times I wish Blaze had the 'Relax' feature that Charge 2 has...because I think we all need it right now. Robot tongue

 

I've created a new firmware thread with an updated version number, and any updates will be posted in the lead post. To avoid confusion in that thread, please keep it related to either updating or using the firmware. If the firmware update is not available to you yet, it will be soon. There's no set date, but the rollout being continued is a good sign. Please be patient.

 

FYI - all the threads I saw related to the latest firmware release have been merged here.
