The activity tracking company announced on its support forum that those who submitted a valid email address have started to receive an update to the Fitbit app. That means some Fitbit users are now getting device notifications. The beta is available to users with the Windows build 15055. Beta testers are also receiving version 2.19.983.0 of the Fitbit app. Upon syncing their tracker, users on the latest app version will get a new permission request, asking them to accept the update in order to enable notifications.
Known Issues
In the forum, Fitbit also disclosed some known issues: Fitbit added: The company also promised to add support for Calendar and third party app notifications and Connected GPS support in future versions of the app. The idea is for things to steadily improve until we are super solid for launch. You’re helping to make this feature awesome. If you’re expecting to get early access to a fully working feature, you’ll be disappointed.
