How far away can my phone and Blaze be from each other and still receive notifications?  When I'm at work, my phone is typically in my office, but I am frequently at someone else's desk.  I have crews that I communicate with frequently throughout the day, mostly through text.

Well @Shanty831 technically Bluetooth is a short distance radio of a maximum 30 fee5, originally  designed to interface with printers and storage, but i degress. 

This however will depend on what kind of interference is around. a lot of metal walls, partitions, desks, and radio waves could drastically affect the distance . 

At my home i can sync a known distance  as far as 50 feet, and one time i noticed  my tracker  synced when i did not have any way to. My nearest Fitbitter neighbors PC is abot 80 - 90 feet away. Is that how it synced?
