No Chromebook support for music?

[Mes310]

I just bought the Ionic thinking it was the most comprehensive watch until I realized I couldn't download music due to not having a Mac or PC....really? Chromebooks are in 65% of US k-12 schools right now...as a business do you think those kids might demand Chromebooks as they get older (and want Fitbit products that work seamlessly?) I'm very dissapii.ted and will be returning this for a Samsung watch I think...

I agree, fitbit really needs to make a compatible app for Chromebooks so we can at least sync our trackers to them, and they do need to make the music transfer process MUCH easier, and make it work on more platforms 😉

It would be nice, because if this was possible then we would be able to sync with a web browser.

Unfortunately the problem is with the Chrome operating system not with Fitbit.

To sum up the chrome book is unable to connect a web page to a connected Bluetooth device.

Chrome apps are composed of web pages.

I've countered this comment previously @Rich_Laue. Here is a link to an overview of the Web Bluetooth API:

Interact with Bluetooth devices on the Web

And here's the current status (enabled by default in Chrome 56):

Web Bluetooth API - Chrome Platform Status

So, it would appear, Fitbit needs to begin to invest the development effort to bring this to fruition for their customers. (And, yes, I realize other browsers may not support the API at this time since it is not on the W3C track)

Ok but how many use Opera as their browser? Does the Chrome OS use Opera?

Your link points out that the API is only partially imoleimplented, this would be a good start. Is enough of the API implemented for Fitbit to make this a reality?

Is the API imolimpleme in the other types of browsers?
