Will the charge 5 have airplane mode or the capability to turn off WiFi and Bluetooth?

Can't say for sure, but doubt it since no other Fitbit trackers can do that, and I have not seen it mentioned in any of the release info.

Before posting, re-read to see if it would make sense to someone else not looking at your Fitbit or phone.

@Kld3zrv   I don't think it will have WiFi capability.

Yeah good point @LZeeW. So far it's only the Fitbit smart watches that have featured WiFi.

 

I'm with @JohnnyRow though, it seems unlikely the Charge 5 will feature airplane mode. Is there a specific reason why you want the feature?

As this Fitbit can save a few days data it would be great that we could disable Bluetooth temporarily. For example in night mode or silent mode, an option to completely disable bluetooth. I know we are radiated from everywhere but wearing a Fitbit all the time next to your skin will be the higher dose of RF you will be exposed to. This is the main reason why I stopped using my Fitbit Charge 3 and only going to buy another Fitbit when Bluetooth can be disabled.

Yes! Same here. Looking for an option without the RF always on.

I was literally buying the sense today, and I saw this, ill pay more to other brand with same specs and offline mode or wait until this is implemented.
