Love my versa but the font for the Steps is too small. I would love my watch better if that font size can be bigger. Would love just the date, time and steps clockface so that the steps can be a bigger font and easier to read for us older folks.
It would be a great help if the Notification font size could be increased. I wear glasses for reading and computer work, but not at any other time.
So any time I am out, and get a text, email or other notification on my Versa, I cannot read what is says. I can tell where it's from due to the colour of the message, but not the content.
Is this possible to add this at some point as an update to enable larger fonts?
The clock face is not a problem - I am only referring to the pushed notifications.
I have the Fitbit Versa and am unable to properly read text messages and alerts without my reading glasses which is frustrating. An upgrade that would allow users to zoom in or increase text size would be a real advantage.
Hi @Vicbro! Thanks for sharing this suggestion, I moved it to this similar post so you can add your vote to it. Please keep sharing your ideas with us!
Love the watch, but need to wear my reading glasses to read stats. I've tried several different watch faces, but no luck yet. Any chance of introducing font size adjustments? Reading glasses are not practical when exercising!
This request has been out there for some time and Fitbit has turned a deaf ear to us. So don't expect a resolution, in fact I would expect if they ever do add the feature you will have to buy the latest watch to get it. So I am just biding my time to buy an apple watch series 3 since Fitbit has no solution planned.
I am so disappointed because I upgraded from an Alta to a Versa simply because I was having trouble reading the date on my Alta. I never dreamed the problem would be even worse on my new Versa! My husband is upgrading from a Charge 2, but sadly will look elsewhere now 😞
Come on Fitbit. My wife and I are happy with our Charge 2 watches, but my mother in law cannot read notifications on the new Versa we just gave her. Please help resolve this request which surely will be appreciated by many!
Hi @Trashmale509, thanks for taking the time to share your feedback with us. This feature suggestion already exists so I’ve moved your post here. Don't forget to add your vote!
Please do a software update to be able to adjust the font size it is so small I can barely read the information. May take it back if not fixed. Love the Versa other then this issue
Just got my Versa yesterday. I am very disappointed in the lack of font sizing. I can barely read the messages and notifications. This is a dealbreaker.
I'm stubborn and kept the Versa. Super frustrated with the inability to change the font size for notifications. I thought for sure I was just missing that part of the documentation. I only need reading glasses for small print. I was very surprised in this day and age that the company shelved that feature. This watch is not meant for anyone who needs reading glasses... if you liked the notion of texts and notifications on your wrist.
