Sick days

[Pruett]

UPDATE: I have posted this in the feature suggestion board which is where I meant to post it in the first place. The link is here https://community.fitbit.com/t5/Feature-Suggestions/Sick-days-Copy-from-help/idi-p/1854255

SUPER SORRY!

I think that FitBit should add a sick day option to turn on if you are sick one day. You could set lower goals specific for that day. For example: Instead of 12,000 steps you could make it 2,000 steps

@Pruett, this has already been suggested in several different ways in the Feature Suggestions forum. You may want to visit that forum and vote for the suggestions.  A couple of them are here:

Thank you for linking those threads. The problem here is that those threads say just not to count stats instead of changing them. I think my option is a better alternative. I do respect the posts ideas though.

If mone of them agree with what you have in mind, then add a,suggestion.

It is in the Feature Request that users ideas are posted for the developers. 

The area we are in now is for Fitbit users to help out fellow Fitbit users, we unfortunately are not the developers.

I have now posted it on the feature suggestions so you can check it out there

First, I never let electronic devices rule my life, When I am sick (In bed and cant move) I take the thing off. PERIOD. I see people saying "its telling me to get moving " etc.....take it off. At first I got irritated by the fact I would go out and do a 100 miles of something that didnt register as walking,  and then because it didn't really know what I was doing,it would say "get moving", I would get mad, then I realized I was mad....wtf... ....if you are so concerned about making sure a record of all of your activity is logged, I go on to my dashboard and I manually log an activity as SICK, then when I go back to check out my averages, doing NOTHING is figured in and my activity I have is SICK.  I think people need to start to think about the fact that just because its on the wrist it doesnt have to set the agenda.

This would be great. I’ve been in the hospital since Saturday & my 600+ day streak is gone now.
