Add a "Find my phone" app in the Fitbit App Gallery

We all misplace our phones from time to time. Since there is Bluetooth connection, it should be simple to reverse the notification and ring your phone. So long as the phone is within Bluetooth range, this should be a feature on the new Versa/Ionic.

Funny to see this 'app' feature being released on the latest firmware without really being announced.

 

It worked fine for me testing it a few times just remember not to have BT audio connected ot your phone or it won't ring on the device but on the BT device.

The find my tracker function for the Ionic, Sense, and Versa line can ring the phone. Now we need to have the reverse. 

 

Untill then Findmyfitbit has been a lifesaver.
