How to restore the "Notifications" app on Inspire HR

[turtoiserunner]

Hello, I had a "Notifications" app appear on my Inspire HR on-screen menu after the most recent firmware update. I deleted it (using the iOS app) because at that point I didn't use notifications and wanted to reduce the menu clutter on the watch.

However, now I'm using notifications again and tried to re-install the app, but there's no option to do that. A reset of the watch itself also didn't help.

How can I restore the Notifications app? Thank you.

Welcome to the Fitbit Community, @turtoiserunner.

I appreciate your participation in the Forums and sharing your concern about restoring the Notifications app on your Inspire HR. Thanks for trying to resolve this, I appreciate the additional details and I am here to help. I would like to confirm if you've set up notifications by following the steps from this help article: How do I get notifications from my phone on my Fitbit device?

You can try the following steps to add an app:

1. With your device nearby, in the Fitbit app, tap the Today tab > your profile picture > your device image.
2. Tap Apps > All Apps.
3. Browse the available apps. When you find the one you want to install, tap it.
4. Tap Install.

By the way, I've moved your post to Inspire & Inspire HR board so we can keep our forums organized.

Looking forward to hearing back from you.

After uninstalling it, the Notifications app no longer appears in the menu under "all apps". There is no obvious way to reinstall it. I tried resetting the FitBit to factory settings, but that also didn't make it reappear.

I assume that this is a software bug that can only be fixed by re-flashing the latest Firmware. How can I do that?

Hi @turtoiserunner, thank you for your reply.

I am sorry to hear the issue persists, thank you for your troubleshooting efforts. I understand your concern and in order to investigate further, I would like to confirm if you've set up and receive the notifications on your Inspire HR? 

Looking forward to your response.

Notifications themselves are working. This thread is about the new "Notifications" app that was added with the latest firmware.

FYI, this has been fixed in a more recent software update. I was able to reinstall the notifications.
