Bring the Smart Wake feature to Inspire 2

Though the new Inspire 2 gives insight in sleep stages, the Smart Wake feature is absent. Other Fitbit activity trackers (for example the Charge 4) do have this feature which allows the user to be woken up at the best moment given the sleep stages.

Wow, I am so surprised and disappointed. I just purchased the Inspire 2 as well, as my mum and I was going to get them together. I agree with comments above, it is incredibly misleading, I was also under the impression that the Inspire 2 had Smart Wake. PLEASE add it. 

 

I am going to tell my mum not to purchase Fitbit, and will do an investigation on a competitors that offers that. 

 

Fitbit, why is it not there? It would make sense to add it, wouldn't it? 

 

If not, I think you should come with an argument against it.

I also got a bit disappointed Inspire 2 didn't come with Smart Wake feature. Hope this can be fixed.

P.S: I returned my Fitbit and bought a chinese alternative (amazfit band) for half the price + so2 sensor that actually integrates with the app I wanted to use (sleep like android) for smart alarms.

Please please please! I bought this assuming it came with the smart wake feature due to the extensive list if sleep tracking tech. Why is there no Smart Wake?? I low-key feel cheated that the feature isn't on this fitbit.

Dear Fitbit Team, 

I also bought the Fitbit Inspire 2 because I understood it has the smart wake feature. Would be great if it is possible to add it.

Please add this feature to the Inspire 2. I need to update my tracker but dont want to get it until this has been added.

I too bought this thinking it already had this feature 🤦 I'm thinking about returning it and finding something else that suits my needs. I like it otherwise, but I really need the smart wake 🙄

I also agree! I struggle between using my fitbit as an alarm and using my phone with smart wake. It'd be great if the feature were on the fitbit Inspire 2/ HR.

I would really love to see a smart wake feature for the inspire 2 as well! Like many others I assumed it came with it and was confused when I couldn't find it, please update it to have this functionality!

I agree, this needs to be done.  I was really excited when I read about this feature, only to be disappointed that it hasn't been enabled on the Inspire 2...

I have to be honest, I am starting to get a little frustrated with fitbit that this feature has not been enabled on the inspire 2. Smart wake needs to accessible for the inspire 2 model.

Just bought the Inspire 2 and am very disappointed to learn that smart wake isn’t available.  Agree with other commenters that this is a misrepresentation and an easy fix through a software update.  PLEASE add this feature!

I agree with everybody who assumed that this would be a feature on the Inspire 2. Why would it not be? Inspire 2 has all of the hardware necessary, so it's really only a software update. Hope this will be featured soon, since Charge 4 is too big for my wrist.

I was planning to buy fitbit inspire 2 primarily because I wanted smart wake feature from fitbit. Knowing that it's not available, I'm not gonna buy it now. Will wait till they provide smart wake for inspire 2 also. I think it should not be difficult because it's just a software requirement as all the hardware needed is already there.

Finally got my sleep tracking on inspire 2 only to look for smart wake to see it not a feature. Very disappointed inspire 2 is literally perfect for what I want in a tracker everything else is extra. 

 

What's the update FitBit? Yay or nay stop the chain yanking it's been a long pandemic already

I would love to see this on the Inspire 2 as well! I was hoping it would be on the new Luxe, but I do not see this as a feature on that 😞

Smart wake. Yes please. My lifestyle has changed and I get up and 5 30am. I'd love a small heart rate monitor with smart wake to better enable me. Please don't make me buy a different brand. I'm a fitbit guy.

Hi @ajajajajajaj, thanks for explaining why you would like to have the option to see add Smart Wake feature to Inspire 2. I've moved it into a similar request. I think that a lot of users would like to have this option on their Fitbit devices.You can learn more about how Fitbit decides what suggestions get released in our FAQs.

 

Thank you again for your participation in the Feature Suggestions Forums.

We need this, smart wake would make in this model a perfect selling point otherwise a lot if inspire 2 units are going to get returned

Yes, it's quite weird to see that this feature is not added to inspire 2 when it seems to have all of the requirements in place.

This is morally and ethically wrong, Fitbit. If it's not hardware related, I don't see why it shouldn't make way to the Inspire 2 😞

It's just another piece of code. 

I wanted to recommend this device to a few other people, but I don't think I trust the brand enough now.

Dear fitbit company,

 

To add the function smart wake would be a blessing. Many times ive analysed my sleepingpaterns with the inspire 2, but im unable to wake more rested. Adding the function would help me start the day with more energy!
