Thats the Blaze firmware version that is viewable from within the app. To view the app sofware version, you need to bring it up in the play store. While viewing the app in the Play Store, select "read More"

I got my update this morning (Blaze, Samsung Galaxy S4 android). Took less than 10 minutes, and updated without a hitch. Will report back if I find any issues.

 

It would be nice to know what was changed in the firmware. Can someone from Fitbit point to Release Notes?

I am updating my Blaze right now and its been over an hour and its still not done updating. My mom is updating her Charge HR and hers as well is taking forever. Any suggestions??

I am all updated..I did it at work, took about 15 mins. total

i opened the phone app and it had a big red sign for me, i followed the directions (and took the watch off so i could move around my office), laid the phone and Blaze next to each other..very smooth, slower at first but then it was much faster and synced easily. WHEW.  i am glad of that.

 

I have the Galaxy S-6 phone, it's a year old.

I got the opportunity to update two hours ago and it still. Isn't. Done. Woman Frustrated According to the bar on the Blaze, it's nowhere near done. At least it isn't starting and stopping like the intial night of updating.
