Hey all and @thepianoman! A Community moderator will inform you all if there is an update about this suggestion. Keep supporting this idea in the meantime by giving kudos.

We sure hope so!  This seems to be a huge request for your current Fitbit users, and would probably be a huge plus/deciding factor for people that are on the fence or looking at the Fitbit!

I was surprised and disappointing to discover amazon music is not an option on the versa. I have messaged amazon music about this also. I would encourage each of you to also put the request in with amazon music. Hope they do something soon, just glad I have not purchased their headphones yet since I only listen to amazon music.

Any chance of an Amazon music app?

I need the Amazon music app too! Please.  Its the only streaming service I use.

I’m looking into buying a fitness tracker but want to make sure I can stream my Amazon Music and not have to carry my phone.  I do not want to pay for another subscription when I already pay for Amazon Music.  I will be putting off buying a Fitbit until this is available.

This problem may have nothing to do with Fitbit, have you contacted Amazon yet? We need to approach it from both ends

You might as well look elsewhere, Fitbit has made it obvious they have no
intentions of integrating Amazon Music.....

Until an agreement is made between Fitbit and Amazon, there is nothing Fitbit can do

I only have Amazon Music. No Pandora. Sooo, I think I’m stuck for the moment.


HERE is how I do it:

You can screen record an mznmsc file on your computer, then convert it to mp3 format, then put it on your Ionic/Versa. It’s not convenient, but it works. Also gotta know what you’re doing.

I think it is also on Amazon. I have tried asking them as well. Maybe bug
Amazon with the request to make their app available on Fitbit.

 I have sent requests, suggestions etc to Amazon too, but no response. Maybe if more people but the bug in their ear they may look into it?  If anyone knows of a better place or a good place to start questioning Amazon, let us all know so we can pitch it.  They want your money, but cant respond or try to make their customers happy.  I caved, and now have the Pandora app so I can listen to my music when exercising.  I let my Amazon music subscription expire.

I am still trying not to cave because I have the family subscription. Hope
they will listen eventually. I am honestly overall not impressed with the
versa. I wish there were better apps. I have not found many that I like.

I am also very unimpressed with my Versa. I wish I kept my Blaze.

Yes- please- i already pay for Amazon Music-and i was told before i even bought this by fitbit via chat that Amazon Music would work-however it does NOT-so i was completely disappointing in this-- so i think Amazon Music should be a feature add on!!!!

I don’t know if this is something Amazon needs to do or if Fitbit needs to add it. Maybe Amazon needs to make an app for Ionic/Versa?

@kerbster33 I'm not sure exactly what you where told, my thought is that it was mentioned that the initial will be able to control the Amazon music app that is on the phone, which it can do.

@Rich_Laue can you explain...

Certainly @djrego let's go to the help docs. 

Step four explains how to switch to controlling the phones audio.

 

How do I control music with my Fitbit device?

Control music stored on your Fitbit device or playing on your phone

@Rich_Laue oh that.  Yes, I know how to do that, and that's great.  But all this chatter is about having an app for Amazon Music available to have on our Fitbit Ionics like we do for Pandora.  When is use my Ionic, my Pandora app is on there and I play the music and control it all on my Ionic and not the phone.
