My fitbit Blaze will not show who and what my text messages are.  It will show me my email but it will only show"new message" for text.  I have tried everything and this is why I bought the stupid thing.  I have a Samsung S7

Which messaging app are you using? The default Android Messange will do this if there is more than one unread message. I use Google Message for this s reason.

Huh, I didn't know that the default Android Messenger would do this @Rich_Laue, thanks for letting us know!

 

In iOS, there's a setting in your messages settings to show the preview or not of the messages on your phone which of course will do the same on your Blaze, do you know if by any chance there's something like that on Android Rich, or is this a default option that you can not change?

 

Welcome to the Community Forums @natjoy08! Hope Rich's reply helps!
