Email notification after a full charge and to put it back on

Just like I receive an email notification when my device is low on battery, I would like the option to receive one when charging is finished. Another option to get an email notification when it's been sitting idle after a custom time period would be great. I regularly forget to put it back on!

Hi @m1k0lw  where are you when you charge your Fitbit? I wouldn't think getting an email when the Fitbit has fully charged would be needed as most people aren't too far from their devices. The idle notification is the 250 step til the end of the hour reminder. You really have a hard time forgetting to put back on your Fitbit, try using your cellphone as a reminder. I have a program that makes an alarm go off when I need a reminder for something.

I agree. I feel this feature should be added.

When the device is fully charged, the Fitbit should emit a sound or a buzz every few minutes until removed from charger.

Hi @elaineco, thanks for explaining why you would like to have the option to receive a notification when your Fitbit is fully charged to put it back on. 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.

I agree.  I believe I asked for this before.  Could either be email or notification on phone.
