Unfortunately I did - they told me I would have to wait for the issues to be fixed - basically I've done everything they can think of and it still won't connect

I have the Versa - this is actully my 4th Fitbit Product and the first time I've ever had issues. But it is super annoying. I was still getting call and text notifications up until yesterday - now I get nothing and my time keeps getting more and more off - I'm at 16 minutes slow right now so using my alarm is also out of the question

Well feel well let down as looks like we might never get message alerts back as this is the reply I got from Fitbit support on Twitter....

THANK YOU! this was driving me crazy😤. As a first responder I rely on my fitbit for messages if I don't have my phone or pager nearby. I've been all over the internet trying to find the right answer.

Considering I’ve had to trade in my charge 3 twice already for glitches, and the heart rate monitoring is barely accurate anymore (previous models were spot on to my chest strap monitor, even during exercise) the only reason I’ve really kept it is for a glorified watch that gives me text notifications. Can I just get a refund already?

Updated to iOS 13 and notifications no longer work. Tried all the fixes. Always rated Fitbit as best but rapidly changing mind!
