Add Stretching as activity

[dbe4876]

Just got my Charge 3 yesterday. Things I'm noticing that I'd like to see chage in.

(1) The time the unit displays on wake-up (moving the wrist) is a bit short. Would prefer display stays on a second or two longer. Or, please give us a setting we can adjust. 

(2) For exercise types, I would like to see "Stretching" as an option to track time for.

Longer Screen Time for Charge 3

Having stretching as an exercise that can be loaded on my Charge 2 is something I would use, and would like to see.  I was not able to find where I could vote for this feature.  I would vote for it, if I was able to find out where to go.

there should be optional stretching exercises before a fitbit workout.

often times i'm SUPER sore after a work out and I think that could be avoided if I had stretched beforehand.

Hi @Chenzo57, thanks for explaining why you would like to have the option to see "stretching" as en exercise on Fitbit. Thanks for sharing your feedback. I've moved it into a similar request.  A lot of users are asking for this option, I hope we receive updates soon.

Within the exercise tracking on the band, please add stretching. Thank you.

Yes! We need a stretching exercise. My Samsung watch had it and I loved it. Recently switched back to fitbit.

Sometimes all I do is stretch, and thata plenty of exercise, and I know a lot of older people who use Fitbit that can only stretch as well.

While I understand that there are plenty of people using the other options, right now the only option we have that's anywhere close is yoga, and that's not really the same thing as just stretching your arms, legs, back, etc.

I'd love to be able to track my stretching as an exercise!

[Steels07]

I agree please add stretching to the exercise app. 🙂👍🏿

I followed a Fitbit Stretching Video (Stretch Break with Coach Mark) and he starts by telling me to track the exercise.

There is no "Stretching" type excise option, so I used "Aerobic" - which is clearly not right.
