Bluetooth hands free disconnects whenever my fitbit recieves a notification

[JonnyWil]

I have a new Lexus IS300 and my Android phone (LG G5) connects automatically by bluetooth when in the car. I have noticed that any time a notification is sent from my phone and recieved on the fitbit (Blaze) it disconnects the car handsfree and will not reconnect unless I stop and restart the ignition.

Is there something I can do to stop this happening without having to mess around with the settings each time I get in and out of the car?

Pardon my ignorance here 🙂

Welcome to the Community @JonnyWil! Thanks for those details. These interruptions are typically caused by an operating system limitation on many Android mobile devices. It's also possible that an app on your phone is causing the issue. We recommend trying these steps:

1. Make sure the Always Connected option in the Fitbit app is turned off. Tap the tracker tile twice to find this setting.
2. Disable other Bluetooth connections when not in use.
3. Check to see if your mobile device has an app compatible with Ford Motor Company's voice control system. If so, you'll need to disable Bluetooth on the app if possible or uninstall it.

   The API used in these apps makes it difficult for Fitbit to communicate reliably with your mobile device. Ford provides a list of apps but note that other companies may use the API as well.

So, currently when your phone is connected to other Bluetooth devices. There will be an interruption with the other devices that are connected to it. My personal advice will be to not have many devices connected so you can receive your Fitbit notifications correctly. 

Hope this helps. See you around. 🙂
