Lack of apps supporting notifications on Versa 4 (iPhone)

[whitbyterry]

My Versa 2 had a long list of apps from my iPhone that I could choose to enable notifications for.  After setting up my Versa 4 I have noticed that list is very short (maybe about 18 compared to more than 40 on the Versa 2).  For example, I've noticed that Google Chat and Google Calendar was available on the Versa 2 but only Gmail is available on the Versa 4.

Is this because developers need to support the Versa 4 specifically or has Google/Fitbit changed how this works and most apps won't work with the Versa 4 notifications now?

Hi @whitbyterry.

I think it used to be the case (for iOS) of having to receive notifications in the specific app for it to then show up in the list to enable in the Fitbit app. 

For example - You wanted to enable notifications for Ubereats. First you would need to receive a notification from Ubereats, once that had happened it woukd then show up in the Fitbit app.

Its been a long time since I've used an iPhone though so things could have changed.

You are correct, the list has grown over the last few days as apps notified me.
