Is there a way to increase timer limit on Charge 5

Replies are disabled for this topic. Start a new one or visit our Help Center.

I haven't seen this topic come up or be an issue for anyone else but I recently started intermittent  fasting for both weight loss and autophagy. The timer seems to crash after 24 hours and I have to reset device. I know a simple solution would be to use my phone/App to keep track of my fasting time but it would be a lot better if the timer on the fitbit could go up to at least 36 hours. Wasn't sure if there was a clock face that might extend the limit on the timer or if it just wasn't possible.

No idea how you got 24 hrs on Charge 5 timer.  Mine goes up to 59 min 59 sec.

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

@Zires - Which phone do you have? You can possibly set the alarms or timers on your phone, then instruct your charge 5 to notify you on those alarms.

(I misspoke in my original post, it's the stopwatch not the timer that won't go past 24 hrs.)

Yeah I can use my phone to do that but the main thing is to to set the stopwatch when I eat for the last time. I don't always have my phone on me when this happens and my memory is worthless in trying to remember little things like this, so it would be more convenient to just set the stopwatch on my fitbit that is on me 99% of the time.

I misspoke, it's the Stopwatch that crashes at the 24 hour mark not the Timer.

Thanks for catching this, I meant Stopwatch not the Timer. I would like the Stopwatch to go past 24 hours but I don't think it can.

@Zires - I’ve not had the need to test it for that long a time and was not able to find an answer as to how long it will actually go. You can always check with Support. Sorry.
