Stronger vibration on the Inspire HR

[Chetbet]

I end up missing several alerts and milestones because the vibrate is so mild. I’m used to the flex original and that was great. There was no missing when it vibrated. An option to have it stronger would be great

I'm disappointed in how soft the hourly reminder to move is. One of the main reasons I bought a fitbit was because of this feature, but I can barely feel it even when I am actively looking at the fitbit when the clock hits the 50 minute mark. It's almost completely non-existent if you're paying attention to anything else. It's confusing because the inspire has completely adequate vibration strength for the relax app and alarms. I might not understand everything about development, but it seems like a relatively simple option to add to the app and would be greatly appreciated if we could at least get an explanation as to why. I've noticed many other users have complained about the same thing, but the thread has been closed even to voting. Maybe we can keep the discussion open?

I'm a light sleeper and insomniac and I slept through it the first time. I knew it would suck as the charge 3 I tried did so I had to use my phone as an alarm and it wont turn off by itself.

Hi,

How can I make the vibration stronger? I seem to miss quite a few things because it is so light. I feel I have to be “actively listening/feeling” for it. I did not have this problem on my Alta. It was obvious when it vibrated.

Please find a way to make the vibrations on this Fitbit stronger. Many people obviously have the same problem. It’s too short to read and feel the vibration. Thank you

A big reason why I bought a Fitbit Inspire HR is so that I can switch my phone to silent while I am sleeping and have the Fitbit to wake me up with its vibration. Alas, it only vibrates twice which may unlikely wake me up. May I suggest for users to choose how much the Fitbit vibrates during phone calls.

[CS211]

The whole point of having the Fitbit vibrate is so you can be alerted to notifications, texts, calls, etc.  The Inspire HR has such a weak vibration that I can barely feel it.  I have to be sitting absolutely still and quiet in order to feel even a slight vibration.  There is no point to having notifications if you can't be alerted to them.  

MAKE THE VIBRATION STRENGTH STRONGER!!

I just got the inspire hr and didn't even notice the move alerts.  They are way too subtle.  Please make them stronger.

Could you update firmware to allow user to choose vibration level on Inspire and Inspire HR.  My previous charge and alta models had good vibration levels but Inspire HR not so much.  Perhaps the ability for users to choose low-med-high would be the answer.  thanks

I can barely feel the notification vibration when I’m sitting still, let alone while moving. Please include an option to increase the strength in increments.

I constantly miss the vibrate reminder every hour at xx:50 since switching to the inspire hr. I never missed the vibrate reminder on the flex 2. I really like the vibration strength on that device.

[jordii]

The intensity of the vibration is so mild I miss most of them. How about an intensity option.
