Can the 10 minute step count alert be changed to 15 minutes?

[MomBee]

There are too many people using Fitbit where I work and the sudden mob of people getting up at 10 till every hour to finish their steps is getting noticeable.  Is there a way to change this alert to 15 minutes before the hour?

@MomBee -- your post makes me smile.  Reminds me of the reports that water pressure would drop during Superbowl commercials because everyone is taking a bathroom break then (Of course that was before the commercials became as big an event as the game!).

In answer to your question, the 10 minute step alarm cannot be changed, and it looks like Fitbit considered a similar suggestion a while back and decided not to implement it.

On the bright side, everyone getting up to walk 10 minutes before the hour is a chance for a little bit of social interaction at work.  Not such a bad thing.
