@Swede3  All Fitbit trackers contain ferromagnetic materials.  They would be attracted to the magnet.  Here is the Help article link.

The magnetic field of my Fitbit band caused sensitivity to the tissue around the platinum coil in my brain.  So anyone with any metallic material in their body should be aware of  of the effect of wearing a magnetic band.
