You can still use your Blaze without Bluetooth. It will still keep track of things (heart rate, steps, active minutes, etc) but won't autosync to the Fitbit app.

Hi @Scott87! The information provided from @kristen20 is great! You don’t need to have Bluetooth turn on to use your Blaze, you don’t even need to be around your phone for that matter! You will only need to turn on Bluetooth when you want to sync your Fitbit Tracker. Keep in mind that you Tracker can only save the last 7 days worth of data. After 7 days, your tracker will start deleting saved data.
