Inquiry about notifications on Versa 4

[Darenfit]

Few issues...

When I get notifications on my Versa 4, it vibrates and I immediately look at my watch.  

1st issue: the notification doesn't show up unless I flip my wrist to trigger the motion detection.  When I'm typing on my computer, I can see my watch and I don't have to turn my wrist much, so it doesn't activate.  

2nd issue: when the notification comes in and I flip my wrist to see it, it displays the app's logo for a good 2 seconds.  I'm stuck here staring at my watch until it disappears and then shows me the message.  On my older Versas, it would immediately show me the message so I can read it right away.  Any way to disable showing the app's logo for every single notification I guess?  It gets annoying and time consuming when I'm getting a bunch of text messages, and the logo shows for 2 seconds for each one.

Hi @Darenfit - unfortunately the new operating system on the watch is designed like that by default.

You might get a slightly different behaviour if you turn the Always On option on. Pull down the watch face to get to Quick Settings to do that. But it will use more battery.

As @Guy_ has mentioned, there's a slightly different behavior between Versa 4 and older Fitbit device models.
