Hello @JDCwa.

 

Thanks for taking the time to share your idea. Keeping the screen on while a timer is going could definitely use helpful for all sorts of situations.

 

Let's see what other users have to say.

YES PLEASE! I am a new mom and was sooo excited to see that the fitbit inspire 2 had a timer option on it because we set timers for our bottle warmer and having the timer attached to me sounded so convenient! Unfortunately I am always doing things and when the screen closes (from me moving my wrist) the timer shuts off 😞 very sad. Please make the timer able to stay on!

Looks like this idea was suggested 3 YEARS AGO. I guess I won't hold my breath for Fitbit to listen to customer suggestions...

As an athlete that trains on the track, I would really appreciate it if I can time my sessions and look at my stopwatch while I am sprinting, without having to interact with my Fitbit and without having to wait for auto wake to show the stopwatch.
