Blaze compatible devices

[Luuby86]

Hey all. Am needing to buy a new phone, but want one fully compatible with my blaze. If you have a phone that works fully (including call and text notifications) would you mind sharing what it is please?

It's possible to check out the compatibility page: https://www.fitbit.com/devices

Hi yes I'm aware of this, but as I've discovered in the past this list isn't always fully correct/up to date etc. I was just hoping to hear from people's own experiences. Thanks though

Works fine with the Galaxy S6 Edge

Mine works fine on iPhone 6+

It seems like it works best with newer iOS phones from what I've seen on the forums.

Mine works with the hangouts message feature on my Samsung Galaxy 6.   Calls work also.

I am using the Droid Turbo 2 and it is working fine even though it is not on the supported list. If you use message+ you will only see that you have a text message, but if you set it up to messages, you can read them.

My Galaxy S5 works great. 

I have however added Bitticker so that i can recieve notifacations from more apps.

Hi Everyone!

Is anyone using a Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge with the Blaze?  My Garmin stopped pairing/syncing so I am looking to get a Blaze.  Thanx!

[jahzbuttafly]

How about the status of full compatibility with the Samsung Galaxy S7 edge?

[Rich_Laue]

@jahzbuttafly I've moved your post about pones from the discussion about Clock daces on the tracker.

Hello @Luuby86 welcome to the Fitbit Community! I noticed that some users are sharing their experience with the Fitbit App. I have a Samsung Galaxy Core II and it works perfectly. I get all my notifications and have no problem syncing. @jahzbuttafly our team is working hard to get more devices added to the list, the Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge is currenlty not fully supported, keep an eye on the list shared by @SunsetRunner for any update on this. @Rich_Laue, @Tori8150 and @Fizzie94 thanks for your cooperation. 

I'll be around if you have any questions. 😉

still not showing compatible with the Galaxy S7 but I am hoping soon

[ScrapBandit]

I, too, am in need of a new device. I checked the list to see what is compatible with the Blaze and it appears to be older phones. ???  I would like to get a Note 5 but it is not on the list. Def want an upgraded Samsung phone.  Does anyone know if any of the newer phones are compatible?  Also, on a side note and should prob be a separate post but: my Blaze is leaving blisters on my skin under the watch. Anyone else have this? I did not have this with the other two Fitbits that I had but neither of them had the heart monitor.

Samsung Galaxy Core Prime with Android KitKat 4.4 works well with my Blaze.

Kelly are you able to accept/reject phone calls and do you see all messages that come through?

[Kmransom123]

@ylsorr2. Yes - on my IPhone 6+ I can accept/reject incoming calls and I do get my text/iMessages and calendar notifications.

[AngelaMa]

Hello @ylsorr2! If you're using the Fitbit app for iOS, you can accept and reject calls on your Fitbit Blaze. 

When you receive a call the tracker will vibrate and you'll see the caller's name or just a number if the person isn't in your contacts list. To accept a call, tap the green phone icon. Note that you can’t speak into the tracker since it doesn't have a microphone or speaker; accepting a phone call just triggers your nearby mobile device to answer the call.

You can read more about this on the Blaze Notifications Information Post.  @Kmransom123 thanks for your cooperation! 🙂 

I'll be around if you have any questions!
