Why do contacts see the option to call kids during school time?

[Knickz]

I'm not sure if this is a bug but I just noticed that contacts in my Fitbit Ace list for my kids see the option to call and message them. Is that right?

Hello @Knickz 

I believe this is correct. Those that you add to Contacts in your Fitbit Ace app have the option to call & message the child during school time. The way that I see it (strictly my opinion only), those you add as Contacts are adults and should know not to contact a child during school time unless it's very important or an emergency.

I saw that you submitted this as a feature request in the Product Feedback forum. Please consider replying to this thread with a link to your request so that other parents/guardians can add their vote and comments.

But the contacts do not see the status of school time. And if we want to consider contacts to be adults, I'm hoping that the kids's parents fall in the same category too :). Currently, the parents have the call option blocked. I was hoping to see the same treatment for the rest of the contacts too.
