Hi!

I've currently got an old charge 2, still works but the silent alarm feature kinda sucks. it'll vibrate like 10x then stop on its own, and snooze.

I wanted to know if the newer models like the inspire 3 have changed that? Hoping to find a smartwatch where the alarm ONLY turns off when I turn it off.

Thank you !!

I just tested on Sense 2 and it went off for 1 minute, didn't count number of vibrations but seemed like way more than 10.  Not sure but suspect yours was the same.  I can understand what you want but might be a battery killer if never turned it off or maybe had it off wrist and forgot had alarm set and vibrated until battery died.  But, to your question, don't think that has changed on newer models, though expect it is more than 10 vibrations.

Before posting, re-read to see if it would make sense to someone else not looking at your Fitbit or phone.

@JohnnyRow Appreciate your input and the results of your test. 

@heman7 Welcome to the forums. Thanks for reaching out about the silent alarms on Fitbit devices. The alarm will not vibrate endlessly, after some time it will snooze. I just tested it and it was after 1 minute as @JohnnyRow said. I agree that it may be related to the battery consumption. Thanks for your undertanding.
