I think that Fitbit should have a setting you can turn on to find your missing phone. I lost my phone over a month ago and was wishing that there was a find phone app ON the Fitbit that would show where it last was. and like when you move around have a light on the screen showing where the phone is without having to be synced.

@alliechizzle, welcome to our Fitbit Community! I really love your idea and would be nice a feature like this. I'm afraid that this feature is not added in our Fitbit devices.
However, I'd like you to check out JuanFitbit's comment in this feature suggestion where he provided an alternative solution to this feature.
We appreciate your feedback since this helps us to keep improving.
I'll be around if any question arises.

@alliechizzle @linmil @JuanJoFitbit -
For those with iOS and/or Mac OS devices, the "Find My" app, which used to be called "Find My iPhone" is available in Mac OS and iOS.
It will find people that allow you to see and your devices, showing their location on the included map.
"Find My" app shows my MacBook, iPhone, iPad and AirPods - with an estimated error margin of zero to 60 feet, well within the stated error margin for non-military GPS, which is approximately 45 feet in an open field with no line-of-sight interference. Even at 100 feet you should be able to hear the device play a sound when you ask the app to do so, with the exception of AirPods with a low volume "Chirp" from in side its case.
