What does enabling Quick View in Fitbit app do?

What does enabling QUICK VIEW in the Fitbit app do? The setting is in the same menu as WRIST PLACEMENT and DEVICE LOCK. I can't find any information about it.

I don't think it does anything. It's just a legacy option from the time when wake up gesture couldn't be enabled/disabled from the watch. Now, this setting is on the watch (quick view is simply a screen wake with wrist motion).

@SilverSandstone Welcome to the Forums. @t.parker Thanks for sharing your insights.

@SilverSandstone Thanks for your question. Similar to what our friend mentioned, the Screen Wake used to be called Quick View before and it was included on the Fitbit app as that's the only place where you can enable it for our legacy Fitbit devices.

In the case of our recent Fitbit devices such as the Sense 2, you can either turn on this function directly on your watch or on the Fitbit app. If you're going to do it from the Fitbit app, just make sure to sync so the changes can be applied.
