Flip screens for left-handed people Fitbit Sense/Versa Smartwatches

In order for the button to be on the correct side for left-handed people wearing the device on their right hands, allow for the screen to be flipped when the setting for the hand is on left-handed.

Hi @MammaDabbaDo710, thanks for sharing this suggestion about being able to rotate the screen of the Versa 4 for left-handed people with us. This idea was already requested in this board, so I’ve moved your post here. This will help us to keep the forums organized and make sure the suggestions don't get confused, or split a popular vote.

A lot of people wear watches on their right hand, not just us lefties. I am constantly turning the screen on at night and pulling up settings I don’t want.

It's been 4 years since this was requested, we need this please, i got a versa 4 and i can't use it because the button is on the other side.

All my smart watches have the buttons on the opposite side, and it's counterintuitive for me to just press over the watch, and when I remove my finger from the button I find myself actually touching the screen by mistake most of the time.

How is this even up for debate? This is like asking "should the fitness tracker track calories burnt?" This is basic-level functionality, here. Like a watch telling time, or an electronic device having a battery indicator.

The SimpleClockPro-L clock face which rotates just the main clock face is available for the Sense and Versa 3.

If this is useful it might be possible to make it available for the Sense 2 and Versa 4.

People in the EEA will need a non EEA IP address to install it.

I have read through the entire thread on the Sense 2 not yet having the ability to accommodate left-handed users who want to wear their Sense 2's on their right wrists.  Given the apparent sophistication of the Sense 2's electronics and the computer programming that makes it work, I am deeply saddened FitBit has chosen to ignore the many customer requests to accommodate the different display rotation needs of left- and right-handed users.  Such accommodation should require a simple software change. Except for the Sense 2's being unable to detect cardiac irregularities beyond atrial fibrillation and being unable to accommodate changes in display orientation, this watch satisfies all of my needs to monitor my body's day-to-day behavior.  Until display rotation is enabled on the Sense 2, all Sense 2 advertising should clearly state this watch is intended for right-handed users only.
