So... in order to add a new WiFi location?  Do I need to factory restart?  I was thinking I would get to work and do a little development but how do you add a new WiFi location/ switch between?  Expectations is that it would be like my phone and show available WiFi when connecting to the bridge.  Help.

Fitbit app.

Ionic device.

Force a sync.

WiFi settings

Add network.

 

What is your use case? WiFi is fairly useless unless you want to update firmware. Bluetooth is where it is at.

Keep forgetting the watch is useless... lol.  Having to use the app to setup WiFi, this device should be able to handle it IMO.

It would be possible but pretty hard to do, and not much fun. Typing in the password would be pretty hard without a decent keyboard app.
