Hey all,
Any chance anyone knows if Fitbit will make a clip (ala the One) so we have the option of mixing up where we wear it? Or if there's a third party manufacture who will make a clip for the fitbit charge2?
I'd love to have the option of taking off the band and wearing it elsewhere.
Anyhow - thanks all!

You can buy just the replacement clip in various colors for under $10.00. Good luck. The silicon body keeps it snug in there.

This thread has been hanging around for quite awhile so I thought I'd weigh in. I walk with a rolling walker. No power steps here but I do like to know how many steps and get an idea of sleep time and heart rate. I wear it on my ankle. Since I wear it there exclusively, my data are likely reasonably precise among themselves. I wear it with a second wrist strap cut off so I have an ankle strap with two buckles. But for those who might still be interested, there's a vendor on Etsy who makes and sells pouches for the Charge 2 (as well as ankle straps). Her shop is Giraffairy Creations (https://www.etsy.com/shop/GiraffairyCreations). Hope this helps some frustrated soul out there!

I purchased an ankle strap that will accommodate a Fitbit. Works great for exercising, walking, etc. comes in black or multiple patterns.

Perfect hack thanks for saving my Fitbit from the landfill.

I have been using the Charge 2 with a Garmin clip for several years. While it doesn't track HR, it is way more accurate at tracking steps and floors than worn on my wrist.
Unfortunately, the brand of clip I have been using is no longer available so I am trying my latest Rube Goldberg attempt. I don't understand why Fitbit continues to add the kitchen sink of medical monitors to devices while ignoring those who just want a clip on tracker with steps, floors and distance.
If I still had a working One, I would still be using it! As I have mentioned in other posts, I have found that the Charge 2 tracks steps and floors way more accurately when worn in a clip than on my wrist.
