Always on display during exercise when trainings focus is on Charge 5

[MisterMarcoo]

Hello there,

Just got the Charge 5 and really happy with it so far. The only thing I'm really missing is still the fact there is no Dutch for database and therefore I still need to use my fitness Pal...

Amy way I had a small suggestion:I always have training focus on on the charge, so when I'm training I don't get notifications, great! But what would be even more awesome is if it would also keep your screen always on as long as your training. Now I have to move my wrist / trap on the screen  and that's not always easy. For example, if you are planking or something like that and you want to see how long you have been doing it you need to tap the screen, which is hard while planking lol.

And no I don't want to have the display as always on, because I don't want it on when I'm just working for instance. It's just during exercise.

Hi, welcome to the Fitbit Community forums, @MisterMarcoo. 

I appreciate all the information and feedback that you've provided about these features for the Charge 5.  

It would definitely be great to have a Dutch food database available! I would recommend that you vote for these ideas posted in the Feature Suggestion board of the Community, since this section is regularly monitored by the team of developers: 

• Dutch food database. 
• Dutch setting and Food log (belgium/netherlands). 

Regarding the option to have the display always On while you're working out, we're happy to announce that this feature is already available on the Charge 5. Even if you have the Always-On screen option turned off, you can allow the screen to remain on during your exercise.

To do so, swipe left or right to open the Exercise app > choose an exercise > swipe up through the exercise settings > tap Always-On Display to turn the setting on. Please note you need to do this for each exercise shortcut of your choice. Check this help article for detailed information. 

Have a great day.

Wow thanks! I hadn't noticed there were settings to set. I also see you can set goals for your exercise, nice! Thanks for this.

I hope you have a good experience with your device.
