FitBit Versa, and all FitBit models: Compatibility of Samsung Note 8

I purchased the FitBit Versa Special Edition and was disappointed when I had an extreme difficulty with the initial set up of my FitBit smartwatch, and once set up, had difficulty changing my settings (in particular, changing the clock face) because come to find out, even though I have a recent model of one of the most popular smartphones, it is not a supported FitBit device.  Really?  I have the Samsung Note 8.  This, and any recent Samsung or iPhone should be supported.  Samsung is the most popular Android phone.  Please redesign all models of FitBit to be compatible with any model of Samsung.

Hello @Pepsimx5! Thanks for taking the time to share your suggestion.

 

I'm sure that many other users with the same model would like to see it added to the compatibility list. Let's see what others members in the Community have to say about it. 

 

Thank you again for sharing this idea!

Please make Note 8 compatible with fitbit.  This seems to be the best smart watch, but I'm afraid to purchase if it doesn't work with my phone.

It's ludicrous that the Versa 2 supports the Note 5, but not the Note 8. Just received my new Versa 2, only to find out it's not compatible!

Hi @kkbversa2, thanks for explaining why you would like to see Samsung Note 8 added to the list of compatible devices with Fitbit. Thanks for sharing your feedback. I've moved it into a similar request.  A lot of users are asking for this option, I hope we receive updates soon.

Thank you for sharing your Feature Suggestion with the Fitbit Community @jusxchilln.

 

We aren't sure if you mean Samsung Galaxy Note 8 or Redmi Note 8 and we'd like to understand this idea better. Please reply with more detail or specifics about your suggestion.
