Stopwatch during exercise

[SunsetRunner]

Guys we gotta fix this somehow! I don’t know about everyone else but I use the stopwatch a ton during my interval workouts. It is way more efficient than the timer on the main screen during a recorded workout. I also like to log my workouts because most of the time even though my HR is in the 130s for >60 mins the workouts don’t get logged automatically when I don’t run a logged workout. 

There has to be a way to use the stopwatch feature during a logged workout. No??

While I don't understand what your saying, I understand what your asking. no currently while tracking an exercise the stand alone stopwatch is inaccessible .

I see a request to vote for. 

Track exercise and use stopwatch at same time

As for us guys. as your fellow Fitbit users, like you, we are not in a position to fix this.

That suggestion is archived

Yes after a year if a suggestion only has 10 votes it gets archived. I guess no one added any votes.

There is a suggestion for the ability to move an exercise to the background, this would allow the stopwatch as well as complete music control.

Link to the suggestion?

I did not have time to search last night  but did give enough info that would allow a user to do a search.

Look for run apps while in exercise mode..

Honestly! I can imagine how many people struggle with this. Should it record my workout or should I time? Most of the time you need both... I can't see how this isn't allowed. May look at alternative products because I use timing in all my workouts and its quite a pain to have to log them manually
