More Notifications

[jaylow90]

Hello Fitbit Team!

after a message of one of you moderator i have decided to make that topic.

I really like you products but the people using an IOS device really need more notifications!

So please give us more! 😃

Notificions i would recommend:

E-Mail

Whats App

Facebook 

and more messaging apps

I have a cheap sports watch FitBit could learn from: http://mitone.eu/products/outdoor/mitsg10/ - it is nowhere near as powerful as my new Blaze, but does have some advantages.

It allows choice of notifications from calendar, email, SMS and then there is also "custom" Where I can turn on notification push for ANY apps I want. What a nice feature. Please bring this in!

Hi,

It would be great to have the following (additional) notifications on Alta

* Whatsapp

* FB Messenger 

* Email

* Viber

* Skype

* Snapchat

Sincerely,

Ameya

There was a great app, bitticker, which had the functionality you need.  Perhaps you can hire the Devn and integrate its features.  I bought the Firbit Charge HR a month and a half ago, largely because of the integration with BitTicker.  Had I known you were going to break that functionality for any legacy devices in order to push the Blaze & Alta, I'd have bought someone else's product that didn't do such shady things.

This functionality should be added, like bitticker had it, for any fitbit.  It's not a technical challenge, it's a business decision, and I regret owning your product at this point, and will until it's re-implemented.

This would be really helpful for people that use a lot their email. Hopefully this can be a feature request soon.

Hi, Please add Whatsapp notifications on Blaze. TQ

RE: notifications feature on app- Why do I have to click navigation to get to another screen to only have one option to pick from? Save me that click and let me slide on the first screen.

It would be a shame not to be able to receive notifications from all apps. At least whatsapp... Emails can wait, news feeds can wait... but ranked by proirity, whatsapp is clearly on top of the list. You need to answer that asap once you see new notifications. I'm not saying to turn Surge into a smartwhatch, because that is not the case, just please consider making the product perfect... I would rate it at 98%... it can be at 100% and you're sooo clooooseee... Thank you!

+1 for all the app notification on Charge HR

Is it possible to add the capability of getting fb message notifications on the blaze?

[Phil45]

Bought the Blaze and its a great watch but Im disappointed it doesnt not recieve Facebook Messenger alerts as I use this over SmS like most people I know

It cant recieve WhatsApp alerts, so is there not a way to incorporate Facebook?

[mazcus]

Facebook Messenger Notifications would be the best!!! Its my main communication ap and not having it come up on Fitbit Blaze is disapointing.

Thanks for suggesting enhanced notifications on Blaze from an increased number of social platforms. Keep voting for this idea for future consideration by our Product Team.

[SunsetRunner]

surprised by how basic the functionaility is at present.

I would love for the fitbit blaze to have facebook messenger notifications because that it how everyone contacts me. Unless it is family or someone who is not on Facebook the text message alerts really mean nothing to me.

[Youssef]

I think this feature would be very nice. Including other texting/calling apps in the notifications of the blaze.

[Firstknight]

Choose what app I want notification on on my charge hr. I know miband app can do it. So fitbit sld be able to as well. Just vibration and icon on display it's enough.

[bdua]

Please add whatsapp & Twitter notification asap!

[Javiersmpr]

Yes please!

+1 on message notifications on iOS

I am thinking if buying a fitbit or something similar for my mother in law. She is addicted to whatsapp so this would be a killer feature.

[Bunggle]

You CAN get Whatsapp notifications. BUT, at least on the Blaze, you have to
choose Whatsapp OR SMS - not both.

[Firstknight]

If u have mod miband app u can select what notification to be alerted on
the band. So it shouldn't be difficult to do.

[ac166]

Only on android... That option isn't available on iphone 😞

[Firstknight]

Yup... If Android support make it happen...

[Cubbybear87]

I would love to get ESPN notifications
