Airplane Mode for Charge 6

The charge 6 will be my last fitbit. It is a great product but I need a device with airplane mode as I work in a RF free area of my company. A quick search would show that people have been asking for airplane mode since Fitbit introduced fitbits with screens. One of your GPS friendly competitors has been including airplane mode for three years now.

Hi @derp.discerp - it seems a legitimate requirement but check with the company.

As any phone, if even permitted, must be in air plane mode, there is absolutely nothing for the watch to connect with, so it may be dormant by default, which may actually meet the requirements.
