Text alerts

Is there a way to only see that I have received a new text message without it displaying the actual message on my Blaze?  I am an ios user.  It's a privacy matter.  I don't wanted people to be able to read my text messages if my tracker is laying around or charging.

Hi, @DanW2112! You're going to have to go into the phone settings to alter that. The Fitbit only displays what the phone sends it. I could tell you how to do it on Android, but someone else can help with iOS. However, you could probably play around with either your phone's notification settings or the notification settings in the app itself.

Hello.  Thank you for the response.  That does not work with the iPhones.  I have the preview set to off on the phone, but it still previews on the tracker.  Anyone out there with an iPhone figure this out?  Also, I've noticed that now my phone will not show that I have received a text when the phone is locked while it's connected to the tracker.  If I turn off the bluetooth so it's disconnected from the tracker, the phone goes back to normal.  This is crazy.

Somemessaging apps have a.setting to show text body, you can turn this off.

@DanW2112  Unfortunately, with the Blaze and an iPhone, it is either an all or nothing in regards to the texts.  Only way is turn of messages all together if you don't want them on the Blaze.
