Hours with 250+ Steps

[Aliusman]

Just got new Charge 2 (previously using Blaze) - I have 3 questions

1. I noticed that the Charge 2 has hourly "GET UP AND MOVE" reminders but i dont get them every hour but sometimes, why is that? (the time is setup from 9AM to 8PM)

2. So the hourly MOVE reminders are the same thing as Hourly 250+ Steps? 

3. How do i change 250+ steps to different goal?

Thanks for your help

Cheers

You should only be receiving them if you have taken less than 250 steps during the hour and that will be 10 minutes before the end of the hour.

Yes, they are the same.

Sorry, you cannot change the number.

Since I work night shifts, is there anyway that I can set 250 step reminder to start at 9pm till 7am?? the device seemed to be convinced that it should start and end during the same day!!

I find it odd, even unreasonable, that apparently users can't change from the 250 steps required in "Reminders To Move".  I'm an old guy who lives in a small apartment-like setting.   I would like to have the reminder, but just to move to the faretherst point here where I live and back maybe.   This would not be close to 250 steps.  So sadly I have so far just turned "Reminders to Move" off.

Aybe make that trip twice as getting up and moving is very important at all ages.

Well, I did the 250 and it's not so bad.  It's 2 complete round trips around my place.  

all the nooks and crannies. If I am visting someone though, I doubt that if I get the move message I am going to spring up and walk all over their house.  :-})  I can think of some other scenarios where I would remain seated also.

@GreginJaxFL , how about you show some respect boy.

It will be handy to be able to change 250 limit.

[Hopeso.]

Hope you remain in charge of your life & the Charge 2 remains a tool of yours.

My Charge 2 is irritating me big time. I busy busting my butt daily meeting all hourly step goals but when I check the next day it only say I have completed these goals once and a while. WTF?
