Hi,

On my Android (6.0.1) I used to be able to use the "Keep-Alive" widget, which would show on the upper left of my notifications bar.  I don't mean the widget from "Widgets" drawer which shows on the desktop, but the one I click on inside the app itself, at the very bottom of the settings page on the app.  I'd really like that back; I like it much better than the desktop widget.

Any answers?  And thank you very much

Hello @Susan108.

 

Thanks for sharing your feedback. 

 

At this moment we do not have that option on the app. Maybe you could support this suggestion to bring back that widget. You can comment and vote on the idea to show your support. Be sure to read the FAQ to better understand how that board works.

 

Let me know if you have any further questions.

Hi @LanuzaFitbit just to let you know I still have the widget. I don't use it normally but I just now turned it on and off again. This has never disappeared from my phone and I have the latest update. So do only some of us get this?

Good morning,

    Actually you *do* have that widget.  I uninstalled and reinstalled Fitbit, and now I have the widget back.  Thank you, and I hope your day is mellow
