Hi @ShahzadaBabar, welcome to the Community Forums!
Thanks for your post and question. Your Ionic should charge fine if you charge it correctly. You can check: Why isn't my battery charging on my Fitbit device? if you experience difficulties charging it.
Let me know if you have any additional questions.

Lithium ion batteries store quite well. It is recommended to charge (or discharge) the battery to around 70-80% before storage and then shutdown the device (Ionic). I'd probably be checking/charging the Ionic in about 3 months time back up to 70-80%. Make sure it is again shutdown from within the menu. Then give it a full charge before use.
Lithium batteries will discharge around 2%/month. Given that the battery in these devices may not be of the highest quality - from anecdotal user evidence - the discharge rate may be higher, or there could still be some residual draining from the device, even though it is shutdown. So check occasionally.
