Caller id with photo? (synced from phone) and apps?

[The_Dave]

Is it planned to update the Blaze with the capability to display a photo called id instead of just a name & phone number? (I'm waiting on this before I decide to upgrade my current fitbit)

Also, are there any plans to open up the Blaze to allow for 3rd party apps? Custom clocks / data screens (games maybe) etc?

When you earn a badge on a Blaze, does it show up on the screen? Each time you earn it?

Thanks!

Fitbit never seem to let us know their plans before they're released but I'd be surprised if they make the changes you suggest as the Blaze is not really positioned as a smart watch with these types of customization. Certainly, their history with previous models suggests it's not something to wait for.

At the moment you can get badge notifications in the apps and via email but not on the Blaze.

Hello @The_Dave welcome to the Fitbit Community! I would suggest to visit our Feature Request board to share your ideas, our product developers consult this board regularly to make sure the customers are getting what they need and want.  @SteveH thanks for your cooperation! 🙂 

Happy stepping! 🙂

It's a tracker; why would you want any of that stuff? Next, I'll be reading about someone who wants to stream movies to the Blaze. Read the specifications.

Buy a smartwatch if you need more than a tracker.

@AngelaMa Thank you for the tip, I will go suggest these items over there!

@Fosse66 Really? It already does call notifications or do you not know the device features? Maybe you should "Read the specifications". Why not add photo caller id notices to go along with the name & number notice?
The custom watch faces could maybe be for developers to play with (probably not a regular user feature).

As for the badge notifications, those would just be motivation for people to get more steps / stairs / or whatever.

I'm fairly happy with my Charge HR (wouldn't mind a little more battery life though), but would want a few more features in the Blaze before I decide to upgrade.
