Phone notification if I'm not wearing my Fitbit device

[thomasthechan]

My biggest frustration is forgetting I took my Fitbit off and forgetting to put it back on. I can go all day without it on and not realize it. 

Fitbit is already paired with my phone - I'd like a notification on my phone if the range of of my Fitbit exceeds a certain distance and the Fitbit has not logged any activity for a period of time. 

I believe this would set the product apart from everyone else - the benefits of the product type are pointless if I don't even get to use them.

@MarcelBK why was this feature added to the Versa and not the Charge 3?

I can't confirm with the ionic since loading the latest firmware my Ionic will not per up.

I don't want a reminder to wear my fitbit but an alarm on my fitbit that I've traveled to far from my phone say 100 feet or so? Just a vibration on my wrist would work with the words "where's your phone" that would pop up on my Fitbit Versa screen. As well as find my phone feature on the fitbit. It's available on the samsung watches so take a look at those for the model.

On the Versa I don't get a popup, but a very short vibration.

On more than one occasion I've charged my Fitbit overnight and then forgotten to put it in the next day. It would be helpful to me if the app reminded me with a notification to put it back on after a period of inactivity.

There are so many requests for this functionality to be added. Why has
nothing been done??? It can not be that difficult of an Ap to write. I
won't get another one of your products until this is resolved.

Suggest adding the following feature:

When the Versa gets too far away from the phone and loses contact, it should vibrate.

A phone notification from the app when the watch has been taken off and not put back on after a certain period of time. Users could select the time interval they are comfortable with eg of the watch has not been replaced in 2 hours or 8 hours

I would like the app to notify me and have option to ring an alarm on my phone when I forget to put on the Fitbit device.
