Hi FitbitOS devs - I wasn't sure of any other/better way to communicate/raise this issue - as primarily an Ionic user/wearer (and hopefully get an app or face together at some point) this is something that I really, really wish could be added to the FitbitOS dev roadmap: the ability to set the Ionic/Versa to wake the screen upon receiving a notification. Right now while riding the subway to work carrying a briefcase and holding on to something while standing it's virtually impossible for me to actually see the notifications that come in. Given that my Ionic buzzes repeatedly as notifications come in that I can't see - I can't tell if it's an emergency, or if someone is sending me cat pics - it makes it even more frustrating. There is a whole long thread with 496 votes and 169 comments of people asking for this feature (myself included). But sadly I don't see it anywhere at all on the dev roadmap. It seems like this would be a pretty easy change to add into a firmware update, no fuss no muss. I have no idea of the process of these requests being relayed to the dev team, or if they have been at all... so I wanted to try posting here. Below is a link to the community forum feature suggestion thread as well:

Many of these suggestions have been recently been added. A tracker for children, a search for the clock faces and apps .infact having a true OS with the ability to write your own apps and clock faces to name a few.
