I'm getting notifications on my watch for all my email accounts except gmail. Gmail doesn't show up on the notifications on the app. I thought maybe it was a google thing but google maps shows up in the notifications on the app. Any help would be great since gmail is my work email and I would love for it to show up on my watch.
Best AnswerWhich app are you using for the mail account? I use the Gmail app and I see it available for notification selection.The app needs to be enabled for notifications on the phone (and to have sent one) before the Fitbit app is able to detect it.
