How do I remove the drop down that has wallet, music and quick settings. Has become a problem since firmware update yesterday.

Thank you.

Thanks for your post and welcome aboard @mathism1.

I'd like to share with you that this specific feature was installed on Ionic and Versa series. Please take in consideration the instructions that were shared on my previous post to participate in the feature suggestion to turn off the Quick Settings function.

Don't hesitate to contact me back if you need anything else.

Fitbit, please move the quick settings off the main screen to a subset of settings. I find it very annoying. All I want to see when I scroll down are notifications. Thanks

Just wondering.

How is it a feature?

Notifications displaying on the screen cause quick setting panel to display on top, obscuring notification.

This really looks like a bug.

I agree the quick settings blocking the notifications is infuriating. Why make the tiny screen even more difficult to use? When I’m reading a message why can’t I swipe horizontally to read the next message like every other intuitive operating system? Someone internally really has to look at why these weren’t flagged in product development testing.

Why not give users the option to downgrade to the previous version? I'll gladly hook up the watch to my computer to force flashing a previous version of firmware.

I wish I could. I use the device primarily for notifications during the day, and the "at a glance" ability is ruined. Swiping down to view messages always brings up the quick settings window shade with no ability to remove it. A notification comes in, let's display the window shade and obscure it for a few seconds with no option to stop it. For each notification
