Hi, quick question. Is this setting, for the specific device in the Dashboard, just for live data? I'm aware that fitbit resolves data from multiple devices when it syncs, but I'm curious about this particular setting.

 

Thank you

 

As an FYI, I don't use live data, preferring to do manual syncs, with the thought that battery life will be preserved.

Flex (Christmas 2014), ChargeHR (Christmas 2015). Wife is using the Flex now! Nope, that Flex has died. Alta ordered 12/15/16 as Flex replacement. So far, she likes it. Nope, alta battery only lasts 2 days, started at 7. Support contacted 12/7/17. Hope warranty covers it.

Hey @EricJRW.

 

To answer your question, yes. The Primary Device setting is only related to the live data, and has nothing to do with anything else. 

 

You can get the details about it in here but I think you already have read that.

 

Feel free to let me know if you have any further questions.
