Option to see phone battery level on Fitbit devices

I would like to see my phone percentage battery remaining on my tracker. Even more, I would like to setup alerte at specific percentage level when charging so see if it's time to pick it up

What a wonderful and simple little idea. I am sure it can be implemented quickly with a basic software update.

 

Google Please ?

Hi @SaveurDeBacon - Good idea.

 

If you have an Android phone you can already set up an alert [in addition to the 25% one provided by Fitbit] using Macrodroid which can monitor phone battery level.

 

With it simply create a macro that makes a Status popup message at the desired levels and this will appear on the watch. The watch and phone need to be in range for it to work.

This is a fabulous idea. Other smart watches have this feature. Also, I'd like to see within the Excercise tab a running timer that will sense when your in a section such as Weights that has a timer to highlight breaks in-between reps.

Just as a suggestion, many of the free clock faces have a battery indicator.

yes please.  I have a charge 5 and the new app no longer displays battery life.  Please give it back to us?  I count on this to recharge when convenient
