Your iOS app does allow message notifications only for the normal sms messages. Can you include WhatsApp and Skype and all other message notifications as well.

The android app I last checked months ago had allowed notifications from WhatsApp or Skype as well to be displayed.

Hello @Renegade81, have a warm welcome to the Fitbit Community, it's great to have you on board. Smiley Happy

 

At this moment App Notifications are only available for Fitbit Blaze and Ionic. Other trackers like the Charge 2 are only able to receive notifications from the native messaging app available in any iPhone. There aren't currently plans to release Skype, Facebook Messenger and Whatsapp Notifications on these devices. You can learn more about how Fitbit decides what suggestions get released here in our FAQs.

 

I sincerely apologize for the inconveniences this situation has caused; if there's anything else I can do for you, please feel free to reply.
