The Fitbit Versa is the successor of the popular Fitbit Ionic.
1. All of Fitbit's healthness/fitness features are availble, yet the heart rate sensor is very fast and much more accurate than the one of the Fitbit Ionic. Built in oxygen saturation sensor available which will be activated in the near future with Fitbit's own iOS updates.
2. Receive notifications from your smartphone, including SMS, Whatsapp, email and,of course Calls.
3. Includes WiFi for faster download of Fitbit or third party apps and OS updates.
4. No GPS included, but the Versa makes use of your Smartphones GPS.
5. When exercising, for instance biking, the Ionic measures your distance and location, but best of all: it recognizes when you have to stop for a traffic light (Smartphone needed).
6. Battery lasts as long as at least 4 days .The max I reached myself was 6 days
7. Crystal clear display, even in direct sunlight, and is made of Gorilla glass 3. Display can be adjusted to your own needs. There are several hundreds of Clock Faces available within the Fitbit app.
8. Contains a weather app.
9. Whenever you use Philips Hue bulbs at home, there is a Hue app available in the Fitbit store, so you can switch your lights on/off with your Smartwatch.
10. Clock faces can be changed to your own liking. Therefore you will need the Fitbit App on your phone. More infornation about that within a short while.
Use this smartwatch now for 1 month and it's highly recommended. For all information, possibilities and accessories about/for the Versa, please visit: https://www.fitbit.com/shop/versa
It's one of the winners of the Tech Awards 2018!!

Clock Faces
Hi all, as earlier stated, I would keep you informed about Clock Faces for the Versa. I've found a clock face that's not only very beautiful but also very functional, heavily customizable and by it's size is also very battery friendly. My Versa, with this clock face lasts 5 to 6 days, depending on usage. See this link:
https://gam.fitbit.com/gallery/clock/364a8989-6105-4418-93aa-10a4e55775ea. Copy and paste the link into the browser on your mobile device, where the Fitbit app is installed or use XDA Labs on your mobile device.
Here are two photo's off how this face looks on my Versa (mind that although the photo shows, for whatever reason, a blue background, imagine that it's dark black on my Versa)
Main display:
Stats Screen (sorry for the blurry image):
On the stats screen, you'll see from top to bottom, besides battery - time -date: Steps - Floors - Calories - Distance - Active Minutes and HR.

Hi regarding your questions:
1. The Versa needs a BT connecion with your phone always, otherwise it cannot be synced. Regarding notifications: in the dashboard of your phone's Fitbit app, press on top of the screen on the right side the watch icon and you get the page where the Clock and App tiles are shown. Scroll down to notifications and enable all items you want to recieve notificications form on your Versa.Regarding GPS, the Versa uses your phone's GPS, so if you're running or whatever, you will need to have your phone with you. Versa does not have GPS on it's own.
2. Backup not needed, all data are stored on the Fitbit servers.
3. Battery usage/drainage is cuased by multiple factors: amount of notifications, playing music, type of Clock Face, exercise, etc. etc. My Versa last 5+ days on one charge. This is achieved by having only enabled one notification, play no music on/with it and use a Clock face that's only 50 kB in size.
4. If you have set the screen to manual, tappin on the display needs some exercise to find the right spot. It's easier to press the left button nad the screen will wake up. If I were you, set it to Automatically, so it responds to your wrist movement. It does not drain our battery more than in the manual setting.

Hi, the probems you run into are caused by the fact that your phone is not in the lists of the by Fitbit supported devices yet. Keep a close eye to this site: https://help.fitbit.com/articles/en_US/Help_article/2315/?q=compatible&l=en_US&fs=Search&pn=1. Sooner or later your device will show up in the list. Kind regards, kuzibri

Clock Faces
Hi guys,
there is a new, very beautiful and highly customizable Clock Face avaliable for the Versa. Although it's a payed one ($1.5 after a trial period of 30 hours), it worth every penny of it. Yo can change the home display from analog to digital by pressing on the bottom of the home display. By tapping the top of the home screen, you wil get the stats screen, with all the needed stats. See:
https://gallery.fitbit.com/details/5f05513e-568b-4993-92b7-783373d6c8a1. Try it out and you will be in no time addicted to this Clock Face, just like me. The size is only 17 kB which makes it very battery friendly. My Versa lasts 5 days on one charge with this Clock Face.

[APP] Simple Stopwatch and Timer [Android App 2.1+ ]

Hi, I am new to the forum and just built my first app, and I wanted to put it here for you guys to use and give me feedback about what you like, what you don't like if you think its useful?
I hope this is the right forum and I am not breaking any rules by posting here.( I read the sticky first)
NEW! Interval Training Mode Added.
Unfortunately, I decided to go ad supported as I spent many weeks on this
donations amounted to less that $4.00
However I am offering the paid / donate version (no ads and can save more exercises in the interval training mode)
free of charge to those who helped me and are continually helping me with the development of this via feedback and suggestions.
Just email me and I will send you a copy.
Let me know what features you would like that this lacks.
Its a free Stopwatch with three modes
1) Stopwatch with Lap Timer
2) Countdown Timer
3) Repeating Countdown Timer (Select repeating Timer when setting countdown time) E.g Alarm beeps every 1 minute, can be used for circuit training etc)
I also added a Lap Stats function which shows your fastest lap, slowest lap and avg speed.
Version 1.0.7 (update)
Elapsed Time and Remaining Time on Notification Bar (Updates every minute) -c00ller
Fixed Menu Settings (User preferences should work now) - lots of reports about this one
Added Lap counter text in landscape mode. - fifarunner
Automatically remove zeros, when user enters time via keypad. - c00ller
Updates
Added User Preferences to enable / disable haptic feedback
Changed the UI/ Layout a bit, you can now select modes by pressing icons at the bottom of the screen
Added a service that should keep the Stopwatch from timing out, I would really appreciate it if you can let me know if the problem still exists.
Added an option to allow the stop button to register as a lap.
Reduced the font size to make landscape mode work on LDPI devices
More features coming soon...hopefully I will be able to roll out updates a bit faster in the future.
Features and Issues requested and pointed out by users...Thanks Everyone for your continuing feedback.
Current Issue
-Need to create service to keep watch running in background [Gusar]
-Landscape on ldpi devices not showing correctly [fiffarunner]
Feature Requests by Members
-Add multiple timers [JVogler]
-Fix Lap layout in landscape [Alouch]
-Lap recorded on Stop and export laptimes [JimmyN]
-Add vibration rather than sound option on alarm [A.Priori]
-Save timers [treesurf]
-Custom Alarm tones [beardedchild]
EDIT: I also forgot to mention I used a Tmobile G2 for my testing which has a hdpi screen, 480x800.. so if you guys with different screen resolutions and tablets can let me know if you have any problems with the way the program layout etc please let me know, I would really appreciate your feedback. I tried using the emulator but it would crash frequently on my pc.

Hope you enjoy and feedback and suggestions would be really appreciated.

Sweeeet! Simple, but does the job. And looks good while doing it too.
One problem: Exit the app while the countdown is running and when the timer reaches zero, I'm greeted by the alarm and a force close message.
And a suggestion: An icon in the statusbar if there's a countdown running in the background.

Thanks a million Gusar321. I will definitly look into that bug and thanks also for the suggestion, I really appreciate the feedback.

Hey Gusar321, just wanted to let you know I updated the app and added the notification feature in the status bar. Also credited you on the update in the market. (Whats new section) Thanks again

I'm so disgusted with SPB Time (a not cheap paid app) missing alarms and draining battery with no support from developers...I uninstalled. I miss the repeating countdown timer for my heavy-bag work though. Going to give this a try and report back.
Will be running on Atrix BTW
EDIT: Just tried, would be great to have multiple timers at once. One to sound every minute, and then a different sound every 3 minutes. A way to achieve that would make it possible to do a whole workout without ever having to reset timer.
It looks great so far though!

Thanks for the feedback JVogler, I am glad that you mentioned that, because that is on my list a timer that can be set at different intervals. Right now I am working on keeping the timer running in the background as a Service, (thanks Gusar for reporting the issue).

very nice, gave it 5 stars.

Wow, thanks A.Priori , you guys are really giving me the ecouragment to keep improving and developing this app more. I really appreciate it.
By sometime next week, I will release a list of the features that I plan on putting in this app.

Hi spawn782
thanks for the app, nice and sleek.
I was missing this since I go Cyanogen.
Just something with the landscape mode, I think it should be redesigned a little.
As you can see on screenshot, the bottom is half cut when taking lap, and when taking new lap, it stays on the first (when it can maybe autoscroll ?).
Maybe you can just remove the grey at the top ?
Otherwise, very nice app, and keep your effort updating it
It's a 5 star for me.
Screenshot :

very nice indeed! thanks
One question, why does it need internet access, as you don't have any advertisements?

Ok, did some testing on my HTC Wildfire(240x320), works well in portrait.
But...Landscape doesn't:
This is in timer and in stopwatch mode, so landscape needs some more time. If you'd like me to test some stuff, pm me or send me an email

Thanks Alouch47, I will work on the landscape mode. I see fifarunnerr also has a problem with the landscape mode so I will definitly have to do some more work on that (thanks fifarunnerr for the offer to help, I may send you an apk after I am finished with the updates).
I do have a question about the landscape mode though, I was thinking that maybe its a mode that you would use in a scenario when you are exercising and you put the phone down a distance away from you. This is the reason why I made the numbers much bigger in this mode, so you can it from a further distance. In such a mode do you think the laptimer will be useful? I was thinking t maybe just cut off that part in landscape mode? You would still be able to record laps, but they will be visible when you return to portrait.
What do you think about that idea? Is the laptimer critical to users in landscape mode?
With regards to the Internet Access that Odyon asked about, its because I run analytics in the program. The reason being is that the anroid market analytics is really delayed for me. Today is the 11th of August and latest android market data (statistics) is is still on the 8th of August

Have to say that this shows promise, I would like to make an observation, let's say I'm using the stopwatch to time a 3 lap race, I click lap at the end of lap 1 and the time for lap 1 is shown, the same at the end of lap 2 the lap time is shown (lap 2) however I click stop at the end of the 3rd lap ( end of the race) and I would expect to see the lap time for lap 3 however this doesn't appear can this be implemented?
Also a useful function would be the ability to export your lap times as a text file.
looking forward to further updates.

I just installed it.
Very useful and simple to use.
thanks

yes that can be implemented, (lap on stop) and will be added to feature requests. I will update the first post

Very well designed, simplicity is the way to beauty.
I´m also missed the timer on my cyanogen rom so, thanks so much for your work.
Best regards.

thanks mhut

This is a very nice looking timer, however in terms of functionality and quick use, I can't find anything better than UltraChron Stopwatch
Notice how on the bottom there is a very easy and intuitive way to switch between stopwatch and countdown modes. Your app requires pressing Menu, Set Timer, adjusting the time, Set Timer button, then start. With UltraChron you click Timer, adjust time, then start. I just think your app's current method of using the same screen for two functions is a bit less elegant than it could be. Another feature it has that I don't think I can live without is it shows time left in the notification bar when you have a timer on, and updates every minute with the number of minutes left. I am not trying to tell you to copy this app, I am just saying this app has been around for a long time and you can learn from its ideas.
Also, your app only allows the numbers to be changed with the arrows. I think it would also be nice to be able to press the number itself to change it directly via on screen keyboard (just like changing alarm clock times, which give both up and down buttons as well as direct input).
I'm looking forward to seeing the growth of this app, and I hope my suggestions have helped.
BTW this is my post number 1337

Thanks c00ller, I appreciate your feedback and opinions and I agree with your comments (great points about the usability) and they are on my list to be implemented, but I figured it would be best for me to get it out first and then start rolling out the updates as I get them completed. Thanks for your feedback and I will implement these changes over the next couple of updates.

Hi Guys, I just wanted to let you know that I updated the app a bit. Sorry I have not been able to add all of the features suggested so far, but I spent most of the time trying to fix bugs that caused force closes. I hope that I have fixed most of the bugs so that I can now roll out feature updates quicker that before.
Again, thank you very much for your feedback and support.

[APP] Pokemon Go+ Type Alerts Using Xiaomi Mi Band (Nexus 5) NON-ROOT

Hi All,
Little app for PoGo alerts on MiBand (and any fitness tracker!)
Basically - it works when the app is running - it allows me to use my Mi Band/BIP like a PoGo+ as well as trying its best to help with the battery saver mode (makes it dimmer and more black!)
The idea is that every time the app vibrates the Band does too, as long as it's allowed in the fitness tracker app. Works for MiBand and for Amazfit Bip in my testing, I assume it works for all smartbands that allow the user to choose apps.
You can choose the features in the app and they will automagically start as long as the 'App Active' button is set to 'ON'.
Optional features are:
* Simulate Go+
* Screen dim when facedown
* Screen dim when upside down
* Screen dim when proximity sensor covered
* Screen dim for both of the above
* Screen timeout set by app screen, resets to previous whe PoGo closes
I'm testing disabling the actual phone screen backlight/LEDs without root but I don't think it's possible (PoGo app closes). Still though, it should be more efficient than PoGo battery saver mode alone.
New install instructions (APK no. 65)
To make sure the app functions correctly you'll need to do the following in the given order.
Install app
Your phone should ask you for some permissions (e.g. draw over over apps)
Accept all the permissions and accessibilty options, but press NO to the 'learn how to enable read logs'
You'll need to open up ADB and allow READ_LOGS to use the GoPlus functionality.
Use the following ADB commands:
adb shell pm grant stoobacca.apps android.permission.READ_LOGS
adb shell am force-stop stoobacca.apps
Go to accessibilty settings and make sure the app is set to ON
Hopefully when you open the app all will work!

Hello, thanks for the app.
Just installed it, and i have a problem
My device is HTC 10

I'll see if I can update for this. Just uploaded a new one which SHOULD make the black screen big enough for all phones

I've updated - I think for all questions people have sent.
My XDA doesn't show any responses to PM's so no idea if anyone has heard from me.
Latest rev. 26 should be OK.
Let me know!

Thank you for your work!
But there some bugs in new version:
1) black rectangle still not fully cover 6" screen
2) screen timeout setting not saved: I set 60, - reopen your app and there again 30
3) when I open pokemon go, then close it and look at display setting (at android menu) I see there is no one radio button selected so there maybe some bugged value set.
4) some of your app menu settings caption have 3 lines and it trimmed at end (nexus 6)

Hey man,
Thanks!
I think I broke some stuff in the most recent version. Will upload a new apk later.
1) The rectangle thing I'm working on.
2) I have set it to display the set variable. It will default to 30 if you force close the app. Might also have a problem if your phone can't support more than 30 (that's why it defaults)
3) I might have fixed this. Could you give me more info - maybe a screenshot?
4) I think I fixed the text display issue, let me know with the new apk. (also screenshot if you can)
Glad you like my app!
Stu

Today i testing version 3.5
+ Timeout option in your app now saves fine. And change phone screen timeout to this value when PoGo opens;
But i think this option is useless, what is the point to set not maximum timeout? It needed only if we cant figure out device's maximum screen timeout.
- Screen timeout does not resets to previous when PoGo hides (In version 2.0 it always resets to 1 min.)
If it difficult to restore previous value i wish to have option to reset it to 30 seconds
- Please add version of your app to top of settings page
- Some text layout bugs:

hi and thx for the app but unfortunately it didn't work.
i have installed your apps, app active and simulate go plus and allowed notification from your app on mi band and tools but doesn't work.
is there anything else to do ?
many thx
edit 1 : turn on accessibilty, app is starting when launching pokemon go but don't get any notification on mi band
i have galaxy S7 edge

Ask author to upload previous version ---> 2.0
I use it, works fine.

try the new version 3.8 , doesn't work.
what is the parameters i have to do in apps and mi band ?
thx

Apparently a lot of time since the last comment, but I feel lucky today.
A dumb question: with this app, can I fully simulate a PoGo+ bracelet or it only receive vibrations from the app?

Is it still working?

dont think so, i couldnt get it to work

I am confused as to how this app works. I believe I have everything set up, it has accessibility access, but I can't seem to get it to work. Could you possibly make us first start/set-up guide? (Moto E4)

Does it still work?

I can look at updating if people are still interested..
Hi All,
Sorry I've not been at all active on this forum..
I've seen people asking if this still works (sorry some were a very long time ago)!
I know it's not really useful now as unfortunately we can't go outside.. but if I can dig out my old files and get this working, would anyone be interested?
I can't guarantee it as I don't play PoGo anymore. But if people are interested, I'll see if I can get some time to try and get it working again.
Cheers, and stay safe!

I would really be interested in this. Don't know if you had any responses in pm.

I second that.

I would be very interested into a new version!

Alright then peeps, I've tracked down a version I backed up so I'll take a look see.
Give me some time and i'll try to get a new version. If you could post any issues here it will help me with what to fix.. it might be all of it so no worries if the lists are long!

[APP][4.0+] HomeTouch (Fingerprint sensor touch action)

Get HomeTouch from Playstore
HomeTouch is a tool that help fingerprint sensor to work for you beyond its original authentication function. It transforms the little used fingerprint sensor into a powerful controlling touch point.
HomeTouch enables touching fingerprint sensor to control your phone. It can replace your Home button, or Back button, Screen Off button, Recent Apps button. It can also pull down notification bar and quick setting drawer from the top of the screen. For light version, you can pick one of the above functions. Sound and vibration feed back upon touching is selectable.
For Pro version : It provides you with PRO short touch and long touch actions - thus give you more comfort and increase your efficiency using your phone. Besides performing one of the above functions, it allows turning on the camera, taking a screen shot, and especially toggle HomeTouch's control desk from any screen to perform most of your daily activities: adjust ring and media volume, screen brightness, display time-out, open calendar, calculator, telephone, sms, mail, browser, set alarms, open previous applications, screen rotation locks, toggle flash light, launch any custom application or open any custom document. It can even control media player.
Moreover, long touch can also be used to switch applications just as using Alt+Tab in Windows. Switching back and forth between recent applications has never been so easy with this one-touch concept implemented in HomeTouch.
With HomeTouch, your fingerprint sensor becomes much more valuable and useful !
Note:
- Please read HomeTouch description in Playstore for more information before installing/using HomeTouch
- Latest new release version 2.1 is just launched recently
- Initially HomeTouch is made for Samsung phone, but now it can also work on a number of other phones besides Samsung.

Great working good on Note 4,and yes its selectable.
Rated 5 stars

Thank Sibinn
It's great to hear that HomeTouch also works on Note 4. Let me know if any issues.
HomeTouchDev

hi. how will this affect battery? it's working on galaxy s6 btw

Hi n3loki
It consumes little battery, less than 1% daily provided that you don't open it settings inteface too often.
Regards,
HomeTouchDev

Working great on my s7 edge. The fact that the turn off screen works without the need for root access and also does not mess with my screen timeout is all I need. Just bought the pro key so I can hide the notification. Great job on this wonderful app for samsung galaxy devices! :good:

Nice apps. Need more features.

Thank you
Your comment encourages me a lot Thank you so much.

HomeTouch has some interesting features in the PRO version. I especially recomment the quick control desk feature, which I will extend more functionalities. My preference is: short touch to navigate to home, long touch to toggle control desk.

thank you. tested it today with my full day of usage and the impact on battery is really not noticeable, barely anything at all. this is a great workaround for people like me who don't like to press the home button. awesome work

Still working great after 2 weeks of use. I would like to suggest that the control desk get a dark theme. Thanks :laugh:

Great
Hi daring0,
Thanks for the suggestion, it is on my to-do list now

Hi All
V1.4 of HomeTouch has been up with lots of new features and a dark theme for control desk, hope you like it.
Link are here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.codelavie.tryspass
NOTE: V1.4 also support NON Samsung mobile phones, provided that they run Android 6 and above.
All the very best,
HomeTouchDev

Just updated mine to the latest version. I Like that we can now choose which color theme we can use ( yey dark theme! ) and navigate to home screen responds faster upon tapping the fingerprint scanner. Great job! :good:

Must be back button support.

Hi,
I appreciate your comments very much.
Short touch action takes shortest delay if there is no long touch action set.
Back action will be included in next update. I have been wondering if anyone requests it, now there is.
HomeTouchDev

I bought this app with back button support expectation.

Great!
Great job! Far better than EasyHome that stops working all the time.
But unfortunately, I did not find at exceptions a process/app that could add to keep
fingerprint working on samsung pass over Internet Browser for example. Add Samsung Pass App
did not work. In Easy Home app, I used sucessfully the "Android" process for this task.
Any sugestion to deal with this problem?
Thanks in advance!

Hi rogeriofosky,
In Exceptions, we can tick several apps, and when one of them become the foreground app, HomeTouch should stop accessing the finger print sensor. For example, if you tick Browser, then when you open Browser, HomeTouch should let that Browser to use the fingerprint sensor.
The other way to do this is the 3' exception Button: first you open the Browser, then make a long touch to show the Control Desk, and tap the 3' button on that Control Desk, it will ask for your confirmation to except the Browser for 3 minutes. In that 3 minutes, if you open Browser again, it will leave the finger print sensor for the Browser to use. Have you tried this ? it is working ? Please let me know also your mobile phone model and the particular app that you want to exclude if HomeTouch is not working like described above.
Thanks,
HomeTouchDev

Got a full charge? The Ring will be a 360 degree wrap around the front camera lens.
Battery depleting? So will the arc of Energy Ring.
Out of the box features:-
✓ Energy Ring can be configured from a width of 1 pixel to a donut thick ring
✓ Energy Ring puts almost 0% load on CPU, as it wakes up only to reflect any change in battery level
✓ Energy Ring's direction can be configured as clockwise/bidirectional/anti-clockwise
✓ Energy Ring can hide on fullscreen content (apps, videos, images, games etc)
✓ Energy Ring can be configured to change colors automatically depending on the live battery level
✓ Energy Ring could have a mono color/multiple color segments/gradient (pro)
✓ You can literally assign any color in the world for your favorite configuration
✓ Energy Ring has a number of cool animations whenever a power source is plugged into your device
The App in action on a Galaxy Z Flip, Fold 3, Pixel 5a: (Looking for photos of your device, please attach them!)
All that is cool! But what about Energy Ring consuming Battery?!
This is one of the most exciting question for me to answer. Energy Ring more than anything understands that you need to utilize your battery efficiently (after all, that's why you installed the App, right? .) Energy Ring sits on the screen silently putting almost 0% load on CPU, if battery level changes, Android wakes up Energy Ring. Once awake, Energy Ring quickly updates itself and goes back to sleep. And to be that extra efficient, the Ring goes on deep sleep when you turn off the screen, meaning it doesn't even read changes in battery level when the screen is off.
Accessibility Service Requirement:
Android requires Energy Ring to run as an Accessibility Service, to be able to display on Lock Screen. It does not read/monitor any data, whatsoever. This is especially useful for people who have disability to read numbers and work better with visual data.

Pls add support for the Mi 11. Thank you very much.

Nice one, thanks!

Hey jagan, fantastic work, thank you very much for making our smartphones better and nicer! Saying that, can I also point out a problem that exists with another beautiful app that you have developed?
On my Galaxy S21, I have always used your curved energy bars, which are as nice as the energy ring. Having upgraded to Android 12 this morning, I experienced massive touch responsiveness problems on the upper part of the display. Spending a full day trying to find a solution, I learned here at XDA that the problem was caused by energy bar. De-installing your app, the touch problem was immediately gone.
Thus, if you ever find a bit of time, maybe you can try to find a solution for the curved energy bar problem. I am sure this will make many fans of your software super-happy!

Update: Fixed the issue of System turning off Accessibility Service of Energy Ring frequently, it was a Android System Level bug, a workaround has been deployed successfully, let me know if Energy Ring is stable again for you! P.S. I am flooded with emails and messages, apologies if I couldn't reply all!

Do you have a camera to take some good quality pics of your phone with Energy Ring on display?

I don't see any reason for your device to be not supported. The App has Internet Access right? Energy Ring needs one time internet access to download the remote configuration. I have confirmed reports of it being supported on others' phones.

Having issues with animation. No matter what I chose it works for about a second and then just stops.

So, you have finally got the App working on your phone?
Regarding animation, it plays out only when you're plugged in with a charger.

Works for me...woohoo....Thank you

You`re a genius, OP! Thank you very much, bought an unlimited license.

@jagan2, Can you add support for Google Pixel 6 Series? Thanks.
