My fitbit isn't recieving notifications from the Verizon messaging app

Is there a way to allow Fitbit watches to receive text notifications from the Verizon messaging app???? I'm getting notifications for practically everything else except texts. Please help!!! Verizon messages is my 'go-to' texting app and I'd hate to have to switch over to something else.

I completely understand wanting to keep using Verizon Messages with your Fitbit. We want your equipment experience to be perfectly streamlined. In order to provide you the best information, can you please state the model of Fitbit you are using?

I have a Fitbit also, so I can relate to your question.  Which model Fitbit are you using? How about your app; are you using the Verizon Messages (yellow icon) or the Verizon Message+ App (red and white icon)? Finally, what is the make and model of your phone?

I have the same issue.  Just purchased a Fitbit versa.  I'm using the messages plus in a Samsung S6.  I can get call notifications, but no other notifications.

Kpratt.wilson, when you are on the go you need those alerts to keep you on track. Let's work to get to the bottom of this. When going to the Settings on your phone, then selecting Notifications, is the notification for Messages turned on? In the Fitbit app dashboard please tap account, notifications, turn on the message category. Also, is the phone ringer set to silent?

I just got the fitbit Luxe for christmas and can't see my text messages from the message+ on it.  The fitbit just shows I have a new message but will not display the message.  I have a LG Q7 thinq.  Is there a resolution?
