What are the differences between the simulator and the actual watches? Clock faces that simulate fine, do not work right on my actual watch. Some errors include displaying literally nothing, or glitchy bars of color when transferred to the actual w...
This question is borne mostly out of curiosity, but as an enthusiastic user it may have some impact on how I wear my tracker. I am cross-dominant, which basically means mixed-handedness. It is not the same as ambidextrous. I do a lot of things with m...

Hi all,I am wondering if accelerometer readings depend on the orientation of the device.So for example, as written in the guide, if the watch is lying flat on the table, then the z-axis would show 9.8 because of gravity. And if i flipped the watch, w...

Hi all, I ask because I've been developing with it in Fitbit Studio for a few days now. I didn't have any problem at first, but now I am regularly encountering issues where the Versa will not connect to studio (or even wifi) when I leave and come bac...
