Hi all!

I am super excited to announce the release of Fitbit OS 1.2! (Firmware Version: 27.31.1.29)

We've begun to roll out this new firmware to 10% of Ionic users. This is a progressive rollout, and all Ionic users can expect to have it within a few weeks. We roll out releases in phases as a cautionary measure so that we can monitor performance closely and make adjustments if needed. This firmware update includes:

Feature update:

We improved the way we track your distance when you’re tracking a run with GPS.

What’s fixed:

We fixed an issue where some customers’ clocks didn’t update after switching time zones.

We fixed an issue where some customers experienced syncing issues after interrupting clock face installation.

We fixed an issue where some customers noticed the Exercise app crashed after double tapping an exercise.

This release also includes bug fixes and stability improvements.

Instructions for updating your Ionic can be found here.

I would also recommend updating your Ionic over Wi-Fi as this can greatly reduce the time it can take to get set up. For more information on connecting your Ionic to Wi-Fi, check out this article.
