Audio alert for reminder to move

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

I got my fitbit so it would give me reminders to move.  I keep it clipped to my body, so the vibration is not really noticeable, and as far as I can tell, the Inspire 3 does not produce any sound.  How do I get my phone to emit a sound when I get a reminder to move?  I use the Fitbit app on an Android phone.

@PJ1234567890   I'm sorry, but the reminders to move can only make your Fitbit vibrate.  I don't have a tried and true workaround for you.  Try searching the Play Store for a phone app that can duplicate this feature.  I found an app called Moova.  This doesn't look like it can use Fitbit data, so you would get a notification even if you completed your hourly steps.

Fitbit chose 250 steps because that's about a three minute walk at "workplace" speed.  Perhaps you can set a recurring phone alarm to go off at the start of each hour and take a three minute walk.

Thank you for your reply.

That's too bad.  Literally the only reason I got a Fitbit is because Google Fit got deprecated, so the app I was using to access my step cap from Google Fit and give me reminders if I hadn't taken enough steps stopped working.  This seems like an extremely basic feature that was available in completely free apps until Google bought Fitbit.  I can understand them not wanting to provide features for free, but the least they could do is allow me to purchase them.

Honestly, it's really my fault.  I should have done more research before making a purchase.  If I had done so, I wouldn't be in this frustrating situation now.

Again, @LZeeW, than you for your quick and thoughtful response.
