Suggestions for the next Blaze firmware update

[Mike2857]

There are two fixes I would like to suggest for the next firmware update. 1) Allow users to check the battery levels from the phone by adding a column in the "Today" view.  2) I enjoy sitting in my rocking chair.  I noticed that when I rock, my Blaze recognizes abd records the movement as steps.  Need to find a way to correct this.

What about battery percentage on Blaze?  That would be a great improvement.  Even just have a percentage in the dashboard would be great - at least I could look at my Iphone,

I like that idea too. Should not be too difficult to do either or both. However, with adding battery info to the app, you still have the fitbit tied to the phone. With the same info added to the fitbit itself, you would have the battery info at hand even w/out the phone.

@Mike2857 @Claygr Definitely check out the Features Suggestions board.  This is where the developers go to see what ideas are popular.  Vote for ideas or submit new ones! 

I believe someone submitted a battery notification on the Blaze like you want here: https://community.fitbit.com/t5/Feature-Suggestions/New-Battery-Icon-Percentage/idi-p/1703636

As for seeing the battery level in the today screen of the app, this is already possible. Simply look.in the top right corner, just rember tyat the server only knows the level during the last s6ncing of the tracker.

As f9r seeing the battery level on the Blaze itself, simply swipe to any screen but the clock. It's in 5he top left corner.
