Swipe to right from clock

[aduse]

Any readon why swiping to the right from the clock face does nothing after the update to 2.0? I think it would be useful. 

[soccersnaps]

ive just raised this as a suggestion here 

https://community.fitbit.com/t5/Feature-Suggestions/swipe-right-for-battery-level/idi-p/2609858

maybe consider giving it a vote

The quick settings are now part of the pages availible by holding in the left button. 

You have Music, Fitbit Pay, and Quick Settings. 

@soccersnaps the battery level has been moved, as requested. Through a feature suggestion, to the today screen. swipe up. You will find it also has been enlarged .

I see but it seems like a wasted opportunity not to use that gesture. Also I can’t get directly to exercise shortcuts bottom right brings me to coach. 

[Rich_Laue]

Swipe left to your apps screen. You will find Coach in the lower right. 

The two apps on the left are what start from the clock face by tapping the buttons. simply move the apps you want a quick start for into these positions. This is explain fed in the user manual found in the Fitbit help section.

To get the Awake screen as before you need to hold the left button, your Tap and Pay will show if installed, and then swipe left for the Awake screen and right for Music. 

In my case I had to tap, "Got it" to make it work..

@Rich_Laue, hi, thanks....yes i knew that it had moved to the today screen, although i didnt know that move was generated from a previous suggestion. I guess if you cannot vote against a suggestion, and if say for example there were 100 in favour of moving to today screen, whose to say there may have been more who may have voted against.

Like with any change, im sure we will get used to the update with time and more use, i guess the mods will delete the suggestion after their considerations, however, I still liked that feature.

[Rich_Laue]

We are thinking about moving released suggestions to a seperate board @soccersnaps, what would your thoughts be on this. 

As for deleting, no they get archived to a hidden directory

[soccersnaps]

Could be useful yes.

Wouldnt the suggestion board work better if you could vote for or against a suggestion?.

[Rich_Laue]

@soccersnaps of course this would be better posted on the feature suggestion board. 

Currently what was accessed by the right swipe. the down swipe. and holding in the upper Right button are all accessed by holding in the left button.

So the right swipe is now free to add a new function. Simply asking for a right swipe without making a suggestion as to what the right swipe should do is pointless.

My suggestion would be to make it upset customizable. Maybe starting the top right app on the first app page .

@Rich_Laue, Hi, you said "simply asking for a right swipe without making a suggestion as to what the right swipe should do is pointless".

  Actually Rich my suggestion was to have the right swipe to show the battery charge level indicator, yes without knowing too much about the tech, i guess it could do more but my suggestion was far from pointless

[soccersnaps]

@Rich_Laue   i did post on the suggestion board, yesterday and i included the link in a previous post in this thread.

The right swipe is scheduled to be used for a future development already in the works and to be announced shortly.  HINT:  You guys won't be interested!

[soccersnaps]

@SunsetRunner hi, Thats interesting. I wonder why they didnt hold out releasing os2 until it was ready. 

[Rich_Laue]

It might be just a precaution after an update to the blaze was released with all the bells and whistles tgat where expected. 

Things did not happen as expected and the update was pulled until it was figured out what went wrong .

It might be that it is not ready to release, did you really want to wait another 2-3 months. 

[soccersnaps]

we do seem to be doing a lot of updates lately, if you skip one, does the one after include the one you skipped?

[Rich_Laue]

@soccersnaps the upward swipe displays the battery level on the today screen. This was changed as per a feature request

[soccersnaps]

the other guy said to be released shortly, but i dont mind waiting...if it works right out of the box

[soccersnaps]

yes i know that....it was you that previously told me that 🙂

[SunsetRunner]

soccersnaps, the feature I alluded to will be only on the New Versa so us Ionic folks have lost the swipe right for good I fear.  As to your update question, yes, I think subsequent updates make up for anything you miss.
