Cyrillic issue

[OplGV]

Dear Fitbit!

I am angry as hell!!!!

300$ watch . It should be a smart watch. But in 21th century it can not display correct Cyrillic symbols!

I see that problem has been lasts for several years, and still it is not solved. Sorry but it is peace of **ahem**t though!!!!

You have to solve this issue in nearest days!!!!

I swear, if it is not solved I would never again but or recommend anyone else Fitbit as "smart" watch!

[QammaQarsi]

Maybe you should have done some research dude, really. Great fitness tracker, mediocre smart watch....

I know I bought mine over others because it's an industry leader in fitness tracking, that has a couple of bonus smartwatch features.....

Besides, it's early days yet, and there is much more to be revealed... Maybe you could practise a small amount of patience? I know this is difficult in today's 24/7 instant gratification cycle, but a chill pill or a refund/cut and run is definitely in order lol

Hi!

Is this official Fitbit reply, or what?!

I am chilled enough. 

But the issue the problem was raised in 2015! How do you think was it possible to add unicode support in notifications or not?

Ok. I see that you a kind of "funny guy" with ability trolling so don't want your time go jogging

[OplGV]

Dear fitbit ,.

Please add unicode coding support for notifications in Ionic

Please tell me when you are going to implement it, taking into account that this issue rised in 2015 and it is just a mouwiton to have such issue . I could anderstand it in early '00, but not today!

If you do not going to fix it also please notify so I could sell my Ionic on eBay 

[GregJaxFL]

I do not think you will be getting your wish. 

[USAF-Larry]

@OplGV, you don't need to sell your Ionic on ebay, you can return it within 45 days for a full refund.

[OplGV]

I wish I could. But I do not

[Andy-fbit]

Well it's not Solved yet. 

Notifications are unusable until this is resolved

Hi guys!

There is an app in Google play. It resends and could translit all notification into Latin 🙂

I tried on my ionic everything works just great!

There is no solution for iOS

[OlegM]

Please add support of local languages to IONIC!

Solution for Android is not suitable for iOS!

[OplGV]

infitbit app, in Notification section you may switch on toggle "translit
all masseges"

Have a good day

[OlegM]

Output from chat with support specialist:
"Luis E.: I was checking my system and at the moment cyrillic characters cannot be setup to appear in the Ionic.
Luis E.: But that would be an amazing suggestion. I would like to invite you to our Ideas board on our community, https://community.fitbit.com/t5/Feature-Requests/idb-p/features , and provide us your feedback.
Luis E.: Our product development teams consult regularly to ensure we're delivering on what our customers need and want."

So, I'm going to go to following link and submit request to add unicode to Ionic...

"amazing suggestion" feedback has been provided since notification support appeared years ago, still no Fitbit solution. This issue has been around for years.
