What do the different vibrations mean?

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

Today my Flex 2 gave me a notification with 2 short vibrations and 1 long. It repeated 2-3 times. I didn't get a text or a call. What was it for?

Hi there!IMG_5107.PNG

 

 You can find this if you click 'flex 2' in your account part of your page and look at the tips 101. 🙂

Hi @zzhere, thanks for getting back to me! I'm pretty sure that the light pattern that received was from the reminders to move. Because when you receive a reminder to move, Flex 2 vibrates twice and shows one magenta light and two white lights. When you meet the 250-step goal after receiving a reminder, you'll feel a second vibration and see a celebratory light pattern. And as @4Kitty4 mentioned, you can find more information on the 101 part for more information about how your Flex 2 works. Thanks for your participation my friend. 

 

Let me know if you have further questions!

Ah finally a confirmation, of what i guessed, about the flashing white and pink lights, not the reminder, but the celebration if you reach the 250 steps.  Would be nice to have this in the documentation/hints 😉

Hi @Disey410, welcome, welcome! When you receive a reminder to move, Flex 2 vibrates twice and shows one magenta light and two white lights. When you meet the 250-step goal after receiving a reminder, you’ll feel a second vibration and see a celebratory light pattern. When you reach your goal Flex 2 vibrates and the lights flash in celebration. If you check your progress after you've surpassed your goal you'll see a flashing green light and four white lights. You can see more information about the light patterns on your Flex 2 on this post.

Hey @Cst4272, welcome to the Community! Smiley Happy You mean 3 vibrations in a row? 'Cause the Flex 2 has long vibrations (well, if you compare them with the other ones) when you have an alarm set, a yellow light and three white lights appear for 30 seconds or until you dismiss the alarm. Also, the vibration is a little bit long when you reach your daily goal. For further information about the light patterns on your Flex 2 and the vibrations, take a look at this help article. 

 

Keep me posted!
