I have Fitbit Surge and the option for notification works pretty poor as the messages in Cyryllic are not shown as they should be, they are show in squares.
Moderator edit: updated subject for clarity and labels.
I seriously do not understand why you can implement it on the chinese firmware, but not possible in english firmware. I really do not like to use chinese interface on my blaze, i just want it to display chinese notification well. That's all.
I also a Fitbit user with backgroud of 3 years and I also want to have support Russian language. If translate contact list from Russian to English is not difficalt, so urge people send me SMS/emails just on English is impossible. Like a compromise I can suggest use transliteration rules. If you need I can provide transliteration table. I hope we will see support of Russian languages in future release of firmware. First of all in Fitbit Blaze.
Please understand that Traditional Chinese Language is different from Simplified Chinese. Lots of people living in Taiwan(not Thai) and HongKong are using it in their daily life. So, please support it especially notification function. Thanks.
Most of the comments has been year old, how long does it take to add a language support?
The blaze became useless while I am traveling and working in Asia such as Hong Kong and China, please add support for notification in Chinese Traditional Characters and Chinese Simplify Characters please.
No cyrrilic in 2017 in notifications. I is not feature. It is malfunction, I will return 2 blazers and 1 charge 2 to seller, because of absense of russian language.
Totally right. Don't know why it takes so many people to write it. We made an official request with support, again on the google store ( for android) review for FITBIT after they asked for it.
were emailed by fit bit and by GOOGLE PLAY STORE that they need 48 hours to answer then they wanted another 4 days.. They are reviewing it. Just spoke with customer service. They are reviewing it.
Im starting to doubt anyone is there. It's a simple technology that exists on so many devices, applications and system. Should be easy to apply.
FITBIT ARE YOU READING THIS? Do you hear the complaints?
Would be nice to get an answer that doesn't seem like came from a robot.
I fully agree. You must work on Cyrillic support with high proirity. You sell these products in many countries that use the Cyrillic alphabet and I was surprised to see my Blaze does not display SMS and other notifications properly.
Guys, honestly, is it so difficult to support different characters sets? Do you care about your customers at all? This thread has been going since 2015 and nothing was done...
As a convert from Moto 360 to Fitbit Blaze, support for languages other than English is a must. Was a bit disappointed to learn that my Hebrew text notifications will not display on the watch.
Yes, please add support for unicode characters, Greek characters are appearing as rectangles for calls, texts and all notifications. Unicode characters are required to use the features.
