I am 74 with a total hip replacement and a fused spine. I fell in the bathroom and it took me 2 hours 22 minutes to crawl on my belly to reach my cell phone and call for help. I have a Fitbit Sense and I wear it 24x7
It does not provide fall notification as the Apple watch does. I have owned a Fitbit Ionic and several other Fitbit devices. Fitbit NEEDS to provide fall detection and emergency notification. I was lucky to be able to phone for help but I cannot depend on luck to save my life. I was scared enough lying on the floor unable to get up that I will find another solution. If it includes Fitbit I will be very happy but if it does not so be it. My life is more important than brand loyalty.

Hi, @Jimcoates47 , welcome to the community, I'm sorry to hear of your fall. The suggestion has been put forward before at Fitbit Community
If you use the search bar at the top you will see the proposals put forward. If you do not see one you could vote for it's easy to put forward your own detailed idea.
