how to turn on notifications during exercises?

Hi, do you know how to turn on notifications during exercises?

@beata.   This might be the answer.  Go to your Settings app on your Versa 3 > Quiet Modes > make sure Focus Mode is toggled to off.  That is the only device setting that I'm aware of that will stop notifications during exercise.

I want to turn them on. Not off

Hi @beata. - there are a couple of other options that may help.

- Swipe the watch face to the right to get to Quick Settings and enable Do not disturb, don't forget to disable it
- Possibly schedule a do not disturb session on the phone may work and it will re-enable it after automatically.
- a sleep schedule on the watch may also work, but that would seem odd while exercising!

Hi, i want to turn ON notification when f.e. bike exercise it ON. I don’t want turn off the notification. I want them to be visible on watch when I ride on my bike.

@beata.- normally if not turned off [as any of the above] and your phone is in range [syncing] they should appear.

If you don't have your phone with you it's not possible to get notifications.

@beata. By default they are turned on. The instructions @LZeeW gave is where the user can enable the quiet mode. If yours is enabled, that would be the issue. 

If yours is not enabled, then we have another issue and I would start by restarting or doing a shutdown of the Versa 3

Quiet mode is OFF. I can hear notification during exercise on my headphones but i don’t see them on watch’s display. My goal is to have them also visible on the display.

@beata.   The Exercise app on the Versa 3 can only give vibration feedback.  You wrote that you can "hear" notifications in your headphones.  Are you starting your exercise on the Fitbit app by tapping on the "+" sign on the Exercise tile, then using the log option?  This is a feature called MobileRun.  This is the only feature that gives you voice cues.  If so, that feedback can't appear on your Versa 3 screen.  All of the data is being collected on your phone.
