Hi everybody! I don't usually uses blaze while I work. I put it on the table. After about four hours, the blaze turned to 60% batteries from 100%. Any power-down mode can I use in the blaze?

I expect that firm to force us to own a fruity phone; is that the case for a watch 3?

Buried earlier in this thread (many pages back, probably), several times I have encouraged ppl to find their local makerspace (some call themselves hackerspace), take in a case of half decent beer, the blaze and the battery-plus-tool-kit you can get for $15 on ebay. I guarantee someone there will swap your battery, it'll take 10-15 minutes the first time, maybe 5 after you've done it once. And you'll make new, geeky friends! What could be better? 🙂

It’s a lost cause - Fitbit will never provide any solutions except offer discounts to their less popular or discontinued models. It’s up to consumers to express their dissatisfaction- by not buying Fitbit anymore. I had 4 Fitbits but each new model lasted shorter and shorter - probably by design. I have an Apple watch but I’ve stopped counting my steps altogether - I just walk and work out as much as I can. There are more important things to worry about these days.

If you wanted to tell me the nearest major city to you, I could do a search. Or your google-fu may be up to the task. I can pretty much guarantee there's something of the sort within travel range of you. They may not be meeting this week, though...

Oh yeah, you're all set, then. If this approach succeeds, pls come back here and report it, so others are encouraged to take the same approach. Good luck.

I'm pretty sure a 3 does require a fruityphone, which makes it a very expensive watch. I'll keep changing the battery for the time being, and assess my options when the blaze dies the True Death. I think I have the next 2 batteries on hand...

My battery will not charge. I charge it goes to full charge; and within 5 hours the battery is completely dead. I have tried all of the tips to extend your Fitbit's device life; but none of them work. Please let me know if there is anything / anyway to help. I really enjoyed by fitbit; but if it's not going to work; then I need to move on.
