Sooooooooo...

 

1) How do I change the notification sound ?

2) Is there a workout for stationary bike ?

3) How do I activate Alexa with my voice ?

4) How can I update the Weather app, it sais the Weather updated 1 hour ago but I would like to update it on demand. Is there a more modern weather app ? It looks so outdated with these graphics.

5) The Watch-face doesn't turn on when I turn my arm. I have it on always-on display but I would like to read the steps etc.

6) Can I change the interface of the watch somehow ? The icons look outdated. Like those very cheap Xiaomi/Huawei bands from 3 years ago.

1) I don't have a notification sound on my Sense, only a vibration. Not sure what you mean by notification sound.

2) Yes, there is a stationary bike exercise. It is called "Spinning".

3) You need to activate Alexa first with the Alexa icon (the blue Alexa symbol) then you can speak to her.

4) Weather app relies on device syncing to your phone. Make sure your app is open in the background of your phone for the most accurate weather updates.  You can't change the default Fitbit weather app.  Not sure if there are others available from third-party developers.

5) Always on display can make certain watch faces lack information to conserve battery.  You'll probably need to browse different always on clock faces to find one that may feature steps.  Otherwise, I'd recommend just turning off always on display and using it the regular way.

6) You can't change the overall UI for the device, that is developed by Fitbit.  You can change the clock face you see, though.  But overall icons and graphics are set by Fitbit.

Thanks for replying. 

 

I set alexa already but will appear when I long press the side "button". She doesn't even talk.

Notification sound means that when I receive a notification eg. Email , whatsapp etc it makes a sound or not ?. Can I change that ?

At the moment the speaker in the Sense is not used for anything. Alexa responses are text only and notifications are vibration only. Things may change in the future but so far the only thing that Fitbit has said will use the speaker is bluetooth calling but this will not be available for a while.
