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 would love email notifications!

I myself have been really happy with Fitbit and their products and app. I currently have a charge HR and would happily move to the blaze if it had full notification support, but when I saw that it only really had SMS, it disappointed me. If by the time the 2nd generation of Apple watches comes out, I will happily move on and say goodbye to Fitbit. Full notification support is a big deal, and I feel that it's not that big a request to ask

Ich Poste den tollen Zustand auf Facebook.
Vielleicht reagiert dann jemand.

I'd love it if my alta notified me of whatsap messages from my iPhone rather than just texts. Keep up with the times Fitbit.

[St0007]

Would love Email, Facebook and Twitter notifications on the Alta. Not necessarily the whole message just a notification from Fitbit to acknowledge that you have a notification from them.

[Nickdesignme]

Email and whatsapp would be great for iPhone users!

[Health-Fiiness]

There are 15 pages of request for more notifications. Surely this must be one of the most requested features by now? Would be really great if Fibit team can let us know when it will be implemented. Not so sure what's the point of all these requests otherwise.

[Sandby007]

Absolutely spot on. I have opened several requests and tweeted Fitbit several times. Each time they say, "Open a request...."

Email and whatsapp notifications please.

[Scott2hotty]

When I first got my Fitbit blaze I loved it. And the txt message, call and calendar stuff. Then I start to realise I hardly use txt and would prefer whatsapp and emails. To the point of thinking of selling and moving to the Iwatch. Please give us the good news 😁

Jailbreak + Fitpusher, you ger every notification in your blaZe

How do you do that? Is it an app? 😳

[Catro88]

Snapchat and messenger alerts would be awsome!! My old garmin had both, and I really miss having it..

[Danielet10]

Fitpusher is a tweak, is not an app, you can select the notifications you want to receive in your blaze, and the tweak sends you every notification like it was an SMS, but with the name of the notification first. I have an iphone 5s and I receive facebook, email, whatsapp and everything in my blaze...only compatible with Blaze and Surge, but it will be with HR and Alta soon, like the creator said.

[Scott2hotty]

Hi,
I'm new to jail breaking etc. Is it the iPhone or the watch I'm jailbreaking?
Any guide on how to do this would be really helpful.
Thanks

Look for that in google, iphone 5s, 5se, 6 and 6s are jailbreakable, the most difficult step is creating another account to not give your credit card number...type pangu jailbreak 9.3.3 and do it, id you have any problem, just tell me...
And let me give u an advice, dont mess up a lot with jailbreak, because you will have to erase your phone because it will start to go slower and wrogn

Probably best not to jail break my work phone then. Sounds like it could get messy

I really miss alerts from snapchat and messenger! My garmin had that, and it's really usefull:)

[Beshna]

I think silent notifications for a stopwatch or, even better, intervals for training would be really useful.

Reminders to drink water or be active each hour would also be great.

[Health-Fiiness]

Unfortunately not everyone can jailbreak their phone even if they want to as this will render apps like Good for Enterprise unusable. And I need such apps for work purposes. I just feel that the Fitbit team should listen more to their customers' feedbacks and be more responsive. Surely their product roadmap must incorporate some of the feedbacks? If so, what is the consideration criteria before deciding to put a particular request into their roadmap? Number of times such a request has been made? Whether such requests make their product more competitive in the face of fitness products from competitors? Ease of implementation vs benefits? What? Can someone from Fitbit team pls shed some insight?

[honglong1976]

I gave up with Fitbit. Great customer service but the trackers don't seem to last and notifications are non existant.

I got an Apple watch. I love it. It's really well built and because I get Fitbit notifications when I challenge someone (something which surely, their own devices should do).

Here's an idea. Create an app for the Apple watch, sell it for £3.99 and you'll sell millions!

[LSDWho]

I'm all for more notification options. My real issue is having to select which source to use on Android (is it the same on IOS?). Why can I pick only one? For "Text Notification" on my Blaze I can select from:

• Hangouts
• Messages
• Messenger
• Skype
• WhatsApp

Great - but I want to select several of those, not just pick one of them from the list to the exclusion of all the other options. Surely notifications from several sources must be possible...?

[Aamvya2]

I would like to be able to receive emails on my Charge HR. It would be very helpful. Maybe just a vibration but I want to be able to know if I have an email.

[SunsetRunner]

That be 'ly

[Jasonwong]

Whatsapp please. The most frequently used app for communication nowadays!
