Display remaining steps for hourly activity on Fitbit app

It would be nice to display in the App's Hourly Activity dashboard the number of steps that you need for the current hour to meet 250 steps.  Also would be nice on the Alta display, not just when there is 10 minutes left in the hour, which only show the number left sometimes.

Add notification or badge when we complete 250 steps hourly - best would be to tell us how many steps are left to do but you found it not important enough to do.... It's a simple calculation and couple of UI updates - don't understand why this isn't done... what's the point if we don't have the goal for the hour?? Please consider... I created a spr

When I get my hourly step reminder I would like to know how many steps I need to hit 250 for the hour. Oftentimes the reminder says “Wanna Stroll?” or some other motivational message, but it doesn’t always tell me how many steps I need to hit the 250.

On the app, for the 250+ steps per hour. add the current step count for the current hour on the home page. So I can reference my phone for step count rather than the Fitbit screen.
