how to opt-out from the developers version

[SunsetRunner]

 when you are interested in development and go to the fitbit development site you can  easily opt-in to the development program. In no time an update is presented to the phone/watch. 

how can i opt-out of the program (while an update is still presented to the ionic)

I don't think you can opt out yet.  The note below is from the developers getting started page.

NOTE: At this time, it is not possible to opt out of receiving the beta firmware once you have registered as a developer.

i prefer not to install the developers build.
I'm afraid the developers build will not be stable

This seems a bit off-putting, especially since the developers build is also still in beta.

It seems to be exactly the same, but with a developer bridge option in settings.  Seems just as stable, haven't had any weirdness with it.

I feel like it is probably the exact same build, with the bridge feature that let's you side load test apps you are building, but of course that is just a guess.  I had the same worries, but figured I'd go for it, haven't regretted it all since Friday.

In the meantime i installed the update. this developers build has version is 27.30.3.2 (2017-okt-09). it works the same as the original build.

There is one thing, when i start the "Coach" shortcut it stops immediately.

Other apps (like weather) do not work either but that was the same with the original build. (it's not a topic for this discusion)

Sounds like we're in the same boat. I was poking around and signed up as a dev just to look over the tool. According to Fitbit there isn't an optout yet. The dev version did fix a few issues I was having with delays though.

Try to update Coach via your fitbit app on your phone. That worked for me.

[SunsetRunner]

thank you, but the coach app already worked again. it looks like there was an update a while ago.

anyone knows when the new/next (developer) build will appear?

Is it possible the Dev build would cause a decrease in battery life?

My battery life recently seems worse than the first couple weeks of owning the Ionic.

Hey everyone.  I need to roll back to a regular production firmware from Developer.  I tried to comment my email address on the existing thread, but i could not comment.  I also tried to add myself to the Google Form,   but it said the form was restricted and that i didn't have permission.  I need to roll back as I no longer want Developer rights.  My email address is advillarreal333@gmail.com .  Thank you.

@alysevillarreal, has the Fitbit app given you the opportunity to update to firmware version 31.1.16? If so, that should have you on the standard release.  Also, check out the post by @ErickFitbit above.
