Should be able to turn off vibration for texts

[waterbottle123]

I want to receive my texts to my fitbit but i don't want it to vibrate every time. i just want it to show. i get way too many texts to be vibrating all of the time. but i still want it to vibrate to remind me to move. how do you not have more settings?

Hi, @waterbottle123 , you can definitely have Reminders to Move turned on, and turn off texts message notification.  Please see this help article for full information on how to customise your notifications.

However, if you have text message notifications turned on it will honour your phone settings, so unfortunately it will not show you the text messages without vibrating unless you turn vibration off on your phone.

It is also possible to turn off some kinds of messages and ignore others (please see the article I posted above or post again if you need further information).  For myself, my close friends and family use WhatsApp, so I turn on notifications from WhatsApp, but I turn them off for Facebook (otherwise I get messages all day!) And I also turn off text messages, as these are typically not urgent for friends and family so I know if I miss them briefly I can catch up with them later.  I am like you - I don’t want my messages going off all the time.

I hope this helps.  Let us know if you need any further info.
