Do you know if Fitbit Versa will be able to show whatsapp or fb messages notifications for Iphone users? I read in previous comments about it saying that it only works for Android but what about IOS?

Hey @Mayurirohit, let me give you a warm welcome to the Community! I'd like to ask you this, what type of phone are you using to sync with your Versa, is it a compatible device? In the meantime, let me ask you this, are you getting call and/or other notifications?
Let me know! So I can help you out better!

I have "Apple iPhone 6s Plus" and last week I bought new FitBit Versa and setup properly.
I receive SMS and Phone call notifications, however I really want to get Whatsapp and Facebook Messenger which I heavily use. I read these thread and tried all the steps:
- Whatsapp settings >> Notification >> Turn-Off all.
- Sync to FitBit.
- Restart phone.
- Whatsapp settings >> Notification >> Turn-On all.
- Sync to FitBit.
- Restart phone.
But still not receiving any messages.
Please help.
Thanks,
Arvi

@ArviKatla Hey, there! Welcome to the Fitbit Community forums. Thanks for stopping by the Versa board. Great to hear you've joined the Versa Fam!
In order for What's App and Facebook Messenger notifications to show on your Versa watch, you need to enable each one inside of the Fitbit app.
Try the following:
Hope this does the trick for you! Let me know if you still need some guidance.

Hey! I just got my Fitbit Versa and I am really struggling with getting notifications on it! My Bluetooth is on, but when I go to app notifications it says “apps will be added to your list after they send notifications to your phone” even though I’ve been getting notifications for a good few hours now and still nothing? Any advice?

Hi there! I am on an iPhone and just set up my versa. Despite getting notifications from WhatsApp on my phone, it is not showing up as an option in the app to toggle on. Is there a workaround?

Hi there.
My Fitbit Versa Lite used to notify me WhatsApp messages, but since yesterday stopped getting notifications.
I checked all the steps you mention but everything is like it should be. 😞 I don't know what to do. I receive all kind of notifications except for WhatsApp.
PS: I got a Samsung J7 prime

Same here. On a Versa and pixel 3a I get everything else but WhatsApp and it definitely has notification permission. This seems to have happened going up to Android Q.

Hi!! I already fixed it!!
I just uninstalled the Fitbit app on my phone, re installed and then check permissions again and PUM!
Everything is working again 🙂

Reinstalling the app worked, but what I think I did to break it was turn off 'let Fitbit always have access to location' and that broke WhatsApp

The service worked until last Thursday. I can get phone calls and gmail but sms and whatsapp has stopped. There was a Fitbit update that my phone automatically installed around the time it stopped working. Could that be the cause?

Whatsapp notification just would not appear in my Versa 2 no matter how many times I reboot my S9 or restart the tracker. I went thro all the procedure of setting notifications in the phone and in the Fitbit app but would not work. Notifications for SMS, calendar and email works fine but not Whatsapp. Then I read a suggestion in the Fitbit community on uninstalling and re-installing the Fitbit app. This I did and in re-installing the app I followed the prompts on permissions etc and hooray the tracker now alerts me on Whatsapp messages. Like most gadgets, if it does not work then switch it off and back on again.
