I would like to manually log a lap when In the run function. I swear this used to be a function which has been lost in a software update. Very poor and making a switch to other smart watch more likely if this is not rectified
This is needed because:
- This is important for better evaluation of exercises. - Several of your competitors has it. I am going to switch soon if no current Fitbit model gets this. - Some of Fitbit´s models seem to have had it at some point, see for instance this post: https://community.fitbit.com/t5/Ionic/How-do-I-manually-record-lap-times/td-p/2486496
Hi everyone, thanks for sharing this suggestion. We're always striving to enhance Fitbit products and services, and we appreciate all of the input we receive from our customers. We do not currently have plans to release this feature. You can learn more about how Fitbit decides what suggestions get released in our FAQs located at the top right box of the Feature Suggestions Board screen. For now, we will leave this suggestion open for votes (and closed to comments) so that we can continue to track community demand over time. Thanks for taking the time to share your feedback with us and we will let you know if anything changes.
There are several use cases where manual lap times is highly relevant: - Running intervals, where you would separate the high and low intensity levels - Running on tracks, where you would like to make sure that you get the correct reading (GPS might be off with a couple of percents) - In a race, where you would like to log each official km/mile
Hi @Solhell, thanks for explaining why you would like to have the option to manually log a lap when exercising or running. This feature suggestion already exists, so I've moved it into a similar request. While we don’t currently have plans to release this feature, we always appreciate the passion and creativity that comes out of this Community. Since we know this idea is important to many of you, we have left voting open to continue tracking interest and will post another update if anything changes.
