When you say it is non compatable what part of the Blaze is not.
I logged on, changed one setting in the mail, everything worked on my neighbors S7.
He, his wife, and my brother all have Fitbits, with S7's.
I did go into settings and told the phone's BT to forget the Blaze and Blaze Classic, just so my phone waant trying to connect.

Hello @TPittGiff welcome to the Fitbit Community! 🙂 The Samsung Galaxy S7 is not on the list of compatible devices, it can sync and receive the notifications but we can not guarantee it will work properly as it is still being tested. Keep an eye on the list of supported devices for any update
Thanks for stopping by! 🙂

Rich_Laue: Can you please provide detailed instructions on what you did to make the Blaze compatible with your neighbors S7? I can't get mine to sink and I'm not very electronic savy. Thanks.

Hi All. I've just got a Fitbit Blaze due to my Microsoft Band 2 packing up and rather than getting another MS Band I decided on the Blaze as I know more people with a Fitbit. I was assured that my Samsung Galaxy S7 would work with the Blaze however this doesn't appear to be true and I am hugely gutted.
After teething problems I did manage to get it to sync with my S7, however I am unable to get it to work with GPS for my bike rides and runs, notifications such as phone calls, text messages, Whatsapp messages, Facebook and Calendar. Have I done something wrong or is Fitbot working on being able to get these functions working with the Samsung Galaxy S7 ?
I'm worried I might regret saying bye to my Microsfot Band 2 now as it did everything i wanted it to.

Hello @LouUm welcome to the Fitbit Community! Our team is working hard to get more devices added to the list of supported syncing devices. While the phone is not fully compatible it might work with your Blaze, have you tried the troubleshooting steps on the help article: My tracker isn't receiving notifications from my Android mobile device. @Rita18kt I would suggest to contact our support team, they can review your tracker's back-end information and determine if it's a compatibility issue or an issue with your Blaze's software. @Rich_Laue thanks for your cooperation! 😉
I'll be around, tag me if you need me! 🙂

@Rita18kt I'm still trying to figure out the subject it is referring to.. Is 'it" the Blaze, the app, or the phones Bluetooth settings screen.?
I agree with @AngelaMa about going through the troubleshooting, while the phone is not officially supported, 3 of my friends with S7's had no problems with their fit it's and syncing. The one gets call notifacation.

One of your Fitbit commentators says the Blaze "worked" (my emphasis) with the Samsung Galaxy S7, but didn't specify if it was complete compatibility. Today is August 8, 2016. Is it compatible or not?

Is it officially compatabke, this is easy to check, no not officially, your experience may vary.. Many have found that all functions worked. I and others been able to help S7 owners to get their blaze fully functioning with call and text.
Some say they have not been able to, this could be true for them and not necessarily for the same reason. Maybe fitbit is aware of this and hasn't found the answer or reason yet.
Some have had more problems getting their officially supported devices working, where others have had no problems with unsupported devices.

Welcome to the Fitbit Community @Prince16 and @FreeTrial I was reviewing the list and the Samsung Galaxy S7 is not there. Some devices are not in the list of compatible devices but that does not mean are not compatible. Is just that we cannot guarantee that all the feature will work or it wont present any issue in the future as it has not being fully tested. Nowadays high end devices are built with the same core specification,
Catch you later! 🙂

I was able to sync my S7 to my Charge 2 last night, but since then has stopped syncing. When will it work with the Samsung S7? I got the Charge 2 so that I can get notifications, but at the moment, I can't even sync to get my data! Please help.
