It looks like Fitbit Ionic has compass functionality. Any chance Versa will get an app?

It's great to see you around @Baysidefish.

 

As you might know, a compass app is possible to have in the Versa, you can even pick up one by a third party developer. If you download a compass app, you can check the How do I install and manage apps on my Fitbit watch? article do add that app to your Versa.

 

I hope this helps, catch you later. Man Happy

"As you might know, a compass app is possible to have in the Versa"

How is it possible since the specs do not mention a magnetometer or compass as part of the hardware?

It should be possible to get compass information from the phone. And even a little map showing where you currently are.  I would find this helpful when exploring neighborhoods (or trails) on foot or on my bike.  I don't want to pull out my phone all the time to look at the map.
