Is the Blaze getting Reminder to move alerts.

[SunsetRunner]

Just moved from at Alta which had it. It was great but now i see the blaze doesnt have it.

It needs it and it needs it soon.. nothing better than a full green screen at the end of the day

Even worse, bugs in server software are worse than software bugs in a single model of tracker. You just underscored my point - all software has bugs. You can't have a perfect release that fixes everything. Server or tracker or whatever. Another example - a Fitbit software bug over a year old - never fixed. You yourself have noted that sync doesn't always work. Don't be quick to pass judgement on 'competitors' when this house is not in order. All software has bugs.

I see that they're planning to come out with a reminder to move feature soon for the Blaze, but the Fitbit site includes it as a feature for the Blaze. Is there an update I've missed where the functionality is present now?

[Kmransom123]

@bre5  No - you haven't missed it.  The feature is coming but has not been released yet.

It's coming in September along with new Clow faces. Thanks fitbit for giving us a date and adding clockfaces and third party notifications. Glad I stayed with fitbit. Really excited about the new features:)

Thanks @Kmransom123 and @Fitnesslarry!

@Fitnesslarry Don't take this question the wrong way, but where exactly did you get that info? If Fitbit is really adding all those features on the next update, that is wonderful! 

[Fitnesslarry]

Fitbit came out with press release. Google it.

[missjamiekaren]

@Fitnesslarry Awesome, thanks!

@missjamiekaren Fitbit officially communicated the news with a press release available on the Fitbit website:

Thank you so much for sharing that with the Community @Fitnesslarry! As we've said  before, thank you all for your patience and I'm happy to see that what you all have been asking for will be soon a thing.

Thank you all for participating in the forums!

Try reading the posts already in this thread to avoid repeating things. 🙂

While it's great that we're supposed to get Reminders to Move, I still am unimpressed. Plus, I'll believe it when i see them.

(golly it'd also be nice to be able to delete a post when you see something after it that invalidates your comment. sadly, i seem to be missing that functionality, if it's in hiding somewhere.)

Hi everyone! Good to see you here!

I'm sorry if my previous statement was vague or misleading but as @MikeF says, we don't want to create any false expectation on this. As I said before, reminders to move for the Blaze is being worked on and it takes a while for feature requests to be considered, developed and tested, so once it's all ready to come out, we will be happy to announce it.

When though. It's in the product description on your website

[AlejandraFitbit]

Welcome to the Community @HWAiken, @chipke, @MrC67 and @MikeF thanks for stopping by!  As mentioned before, thank you all for your patience, we don't have a specific for the release of the new update but it will be soon. I recommend keeping an eye on it.

Happy stepping!

Now September and it looks like this feature wasn't meant to be fully functional on the Blaze and should probably be removed.  Reminder to Move should be called, Remind yourself to move on your own because Blaze won't.

[dryheatwriter]

I have the update, and set up the Remindustry to move, however it fails to remind me to move. I'd the firmware buggy?

[KimKrat]

How did you get the update?  I have not seen anything come through yet.

Thanks

[missjamiekaren]

They began a rolling release on 9/12 it looks like from this post:

[chipke]

Which just begs the question: what is the definition of "within a few days."

I have to agree, advertising this feature for new product buyers while current product owners (and probably new buyers) don't actually have it, doesn't seem like a best practice in any field.
