Fitbit Not Displaying Messages
After Fitbit Versa and Ionic users received a new firmware update recently, they have been reporting about a new issue. Several users claim that Fitbit is ignoring their notifications and not displaying them on their watch.
Reports about the issue have been flooding in on various social media platforms, and Fitbit seems to be aware of this problem. Fitbit’s support team tweeted that they are aware of the issue and are working on a fix.
“We are aware of an issue where notifications are not displaying on your Fitbit device. Our engineering team is working on a fix. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. Thank you for your patience,” Fitbit support tweeted.
So far, the fix has not been released, and Fitbit has not provided a timeline for when the issue will be resolved. In the meantime, users are left with smartwatches that are unable to display their notifications.
The issue seems to be affecting both Versa and Ionic users, and it seems to be related to the recent firmware update. Fitbit has not provided any further details about the issue, so it is unclear what is causing the problem.
Users who have been affected by the issue are understandably frustrated, as smartwatches are meant to be a convenience tool. They allow users to view their notifications without having to pull out their phone, and this recent issue has taken away that feature.
We hope that Fitbit will be able to quickly resolve the issue and release a fix soon. In the meantime, users will just have to be patient and wait for the problem to be resolved.

Final Note
If you’re wondering why your Fitbit is not displaying messages, there are a few possible explanations. One possibility is that the Fitbit is not connected to your phone. To check this, go to the Fitbit app on your phone and make sure that it is synced with your Fitbit. If not, follow the instructions in the app to sync the devices and try again.
Another possibility is that your phone’s Do Not Disturb mode is turned on. When Do Not Disturb is turned on, your Fitbit will not receive any notifications, including messages. To turn off Do Not Disturb, swipe up from the bottom of your screen to open Control Center on your iPhone, or go to Settings > Do Not Disturb on Android.
If neither of these solutions work, you may need to contact Fitbit support for further assistance.
