Active Minutes on my screen

[Zman526]

On my Blaze when I look at "Today" I see steps, HR, Miles, Calories and Floors. Where are the active minutes? I looked everywhere in the app, but I couldn't find anything. Anyone have an answer? Has anyone experienced the same problem as I?

Active Minutes aren't displayed on any Fitbit trackers. As far as I know, these are calculated on the Fitbit servers from the synced data and displayed on the web dashboard or in the apps.

I view active minutes in the Fitbit App itself.

Would be cool if they added them to the Blaze in a future update.

Yes it would be nice,  but over a year ago, Fitbit moved the active minute calculations off of the tracker and put it onto the server, like @MikeF states. The reason for this was to have all the trackers, not  just the new three that where released in 2014. This change brings Fitbit in line with the CDC, and the European recommended Standards.

Since all trackers are using the same calculations, it is now easier to do this once on the server, especially when the older trackers have limited memory for calculations.

@MikeF and @Rich_Laue, that is actually not true anymore. Active minutes CAN be seen on the Alta. So a little odd and inconvenient that they left it off the Blaze. I know you posted before the alta came out. But I wish they would add it to the Blaze-- especially if on the Alta

[Rich_Laue]

@Zman526 It is true now, but please note that to resurrected an old post thread dated before thee Alta was released.
You might want to look at the main there'd on this subject.

Better yet I'll combine them,

I don't see display of the active minutes on the Fitbit blaze screen too though not video from the website Fitbit.com is shown display of the active minutes on the Fitbit blaze screen.

[Dua1961]

Here videos where on the Fitbit blaze screen are displayed the active minutes.

[Rich_Laue]

O think you should watch the video again,  in that there is no mention of active minutes.  Start at the 25 second mark

[Kmransom123]

Looks like another marketing "glitch" as the video does show it on the Blaze screen.

[Rich_Laue]

It might show this, and could be using a pre-release model,  but they definately do not state this.

[Dua1961]

Look on the 37th second

[Rich_Laue]

Are they using a pre or post pruduction model. Listen to the announcer, there is no mention of active minutes.

[Dua1961]

How to write a post with the picture?

[Dua1961]

Thanks for the response! I so understand Fitbit blaze works for me normally?

[Kmransom123]

Yes- your blaze is working correctly.  In some marketing pieces, the product has pictures of items that were not placed into production.  (Presumably they were done before release and some features were not implemented.)

Sorry to contradict, but active minutes are shown on watch face of fitbit charge 2,my current tracker. If my memory serves me correctly also on fitbit alta tracker.
