Low batter notification

[907jmsAK]

Will the fitbit blaze have a battery icon on it so that there's a way to accurately know the battery life?

[matt9013]

Really hope so. That's the one thing I don't like about my Charge. Not knowing the battery until I check the phone but even than I don't get a real picture.

I would love a bettery icon with the percent on the Blaze.

I preordered the Blaze a few days ago but yes that would have been one of things i would like to see on my future Blaze

Certainly an option I think most of us would appreciate.

If not that then an accurate representation in the paired app on the phone.

@907jmsAK @EdNap @Gandhi @matt9013 Yep! One of my favorite features of the Fitbit Blaze is the consistent battery life on-screen. On just about every screen aside from the watch face, you'll be able to check in on the battery life of your device. Simply swipe in any direction, and you'll be able to see battery life on the display.

Cool, does it have a percent or just a picture like the app shows?

It's a pretty nice picture of a battery silhouette- pretty intuitive. The higher the battery, the higher the amount of battery left over.

The battery icon really is too small to read and very faint on auto brightness

A screen with a percentage would be appreciated or an option on the watch face to select the percentage.

We appreciate the recommendation @T4ll1f3r! I'm sure we've gotten similar feedback in the past, so I think it's worth searching our Feature Request forum and adding your vote/comment on the request.

Will do. Thanks

I have a Blaze now and had a Charge HR for 18 months before that. I have to say the lack or too small notification for the battery is driving me nuts wth the Blaze. The Charge HR actually warned you, buzzed and flashed a massive battery icon with low/no charge when you needed to charge it. I don't know how many times my Blaze has died on me and I only have it 2 months. I don't regularly sync my FitBit to my phone and I don't want to have to do this. This definitely should be improved

Welcome to the Community @quizgal! Thank you so much for your feedback. Fitbit is always trying to improve its trackers and website. As mentioned before, if the Blaze doesn't have battery at all it will show a red battery icon in your display. 

Additionally, you may want to vote for this idea New Battery Icon - Percentage. Because those suggestions are viewed by our engineers and developers. 

Hope this helps. Let me know how it goes.
