Caller ID for Windows Phone

[ahmetatar]

I bought a new fitbit charge a short time ago.All the features in the product package is said to be compatible with the Windows Phone.This is an outright deception!!! Why can not I use "Caller ID" feature? This is not an acceptable situation and the problem can be taken up in court.Do I have to buy a new android or IOS phone in order to use this feature? I bought a product and I can not use some features. Because my phone is WP. Ridiculous... Previously, these issues have been discussed on the form. (2015) You need to solve this issue asap.

ask Microsoft why they don't follow bluetooth standards.

don't blame Fitbit, they're using BT standards, as Apple and Google Androïd.

Bluetooth standart? I'am a software engineer. Would you do me the technical description? If the application had a problem with the Bluetooth of Windows phone, no communication can be made. But except for this feature (caller id), everything works perfectly (sync data). It is possible to capture the caller id on windows phone. You can then send this information with Bluetooth as in other things.
