Hello All!

I was thinking about buying a Fitbit Versa and I was wondering if it had the ability to show custom reminders. I'm a nurse and I really would like to be able to set multiple custom reminders to do certain things, for example set a reminder to check an IV bag in 15 min. I know it has alarms but it would need to have some text to go along with it. Thanks!

Don't buy a Versa. Mine's about to go back for a refund. Piece of crap.

The Versa has a countdown timer whixhwcould be your best choice, @Rikkilynn. 

For labels attached to alarms I suggest add a vote .

My sister has a magnetic metal link for the Alta 2 that really looks sharp and works great with her small wrist.

I bought this watch due to the reminders and I can not figure out how to set up a reminder to drink more water.  Also I was told my Gmail, Photos, Task, Calendar would all sync and I can not figure that out either.

Sorry @Crystal2018 there is no water reminder, you might want to add your vote to the water suggestion. 

 

I'm not sure what is ment buy sync gmail photos etc..

The Versa can be setup to notify when a phone call, email, message  comes  it may also forward notifications from any other apps. Depending on the phones OS you might be able to send quick replays.  This is all explained in the Notification setup instructions 

How do I get notifications from my phone on my Fitbit device?
Receive call, text message, calendar, and other notifications on your Fitbit watch or tracker if you have a compatible phone.
This help doc has specific instructions for the different phone types.

As for photos syncing, do you want to be able to view some photos on the Versa. Last I knew there was at least one third party app that has this ability.

Try the free SimpleClock, it has an on watch option to remind you to drink, along with a count of your daily intake.
