I think there are more Hong Kong users than Mainland Chinese users now. People in Hong Kong DO NOT use simplified Chinese in daily communication Please make it support Traditional Chinese
I still don't understand why Traditional Chinese is not supported and believe we could never get any positive answer. Fitbit should state the product only support certain languages in their advertisements.
Well, I think Fitbit has no intention to post a schedule for traditional Chinese display. This thread has been here for 18+ months, first post almost the exact moment its ‘smart’ watches was launched (they have already acquired Pebble months ago, who is good at OS, but nothing happened).
Fitbit doesn’t care to promote cooperation with other sports apps too.
They asked us to vote for traditional Chinese here (note that there are also votes to multiple posts asking for the same fix), yet nothing happened. Obviously, this forum is set up just to let go our disappointment and angry, a PR thing.
Among my friends, colleagues, run mates who are using smart sports watch, I am now the only one still stick to Fitbit (they, 100+, have all adopted Garmin, WOW, how embrassing I have placed my trust in Fitbit).
In fact, a bit disappointed, too. I brought two Fitbit Blaze last summer and was planning to get 2 more for my parents, who don’t read English, before I realised the support of ‘Chinese’ display was in fact only for simplified Chinese.
Now, they launched Ionic, again with no support of traditional Chinese, I don’t think they will fix the issue soon. If you are serious about a smart sport watch, like me, seems it is time we choose again.
Having Chinese capability on your FitBi Blaze is not a yes or no question, but must be a how soon question. If not, Fitbit will have a very limited client base and will eventually be superseded. So please get on to it asap. I will need BOTH simplified and traditional Chinese message relay from my phone for my work. Or it will just be given to my kids as a toy watch soon. Ta
I can’t believe this discussion has been going on for so long?! Without support for traditional Chinese, this Fitbit blaze is useless for people from Hong Kong, Guangzhou, Taiwan etc.
I bought this instead of an Apple iwatch, and now I get notifications full of squares! It is completely useless to me!
if all I wanted was a heart beat tracker and a clock, there were plenty of far cheaper options!!!
I need traditional Chinese on Blaze, I don’t care about Ionic. I rather buy Apple Watch than Ionic. Fitbit Customer Service, if you don’t improve it on Blaze, you will definitely losing customers!! I’m done with Fitbit....
Just found out fitbit Blaze could not display Traditional Chinese characters. Haven't seen a modern device couldn't displaying Chinese characters for past 10 years. What a surprise!?
Love this watch except all those square characters from my messages and WhatsApp. Can't believe it. 😞
That's such a pity that my Blaze does not support traditional Chinese. Can the Fitbit Team understand that traditional Chinese and simplified Chinese are just DIFFERENT? We've been discussing this for one year and half, and still nothing happens. It's simply abnormal that Fitbit supports simplified Chinese, Japanese and Korean, but not traditional Chinese. Please get this improved as soon as possible, we would be really grateful. Many thanks in advance for your attention.
