Oct 4th Firmware what’s new?

[gibbyhome]

Anyone know what type of bug fixes are in this release?

i do notice that the OS seems faster but that’s it

Keep an eye on the following help file which has fitbit's release notes. Looks like it hasn't yet been updated for the latest version but should be soon:

I haven't recieved an update yet. I wonder if people get it at different times?

They tend to rollout changes in waves. Partly so they keep an eye out for any issues and partly to stop the servers overloading. We get the updates when they arrive - there doesn't seem to be any way to force them through.

@SteveH that makes sense, thank you!

smaller bug fixes and improvements aren't mentioned into detail mostly.. 

new features, major bug fixes are most important.

Crap,

the last version they mention in the post is Version 27.25.16.7 there has been at least 2 firmware updates since than I'm on version 30.3.2

I'm way behind on the updates! I'm still on 25.16.7 and nothing has come through for me as of yet

It would appear as the folks on the other side of the pond (Europe) are on a different firmware version then us on this side of the pond (USA).  My Ionic is still on 25.16.7.  I just checked and NO firmware upgrade is available yet for me.  However, besides the two different firmware version (depending on location), I agree with previous replies that Fitbit is most likely rolling out the upgrades in waves.  Makes total sense!

Don't worry, we'll be the guinea pigs for you and make sure it's all working by the time you get it 🙂
