Display brightness on my Surge

[Lockman]

Does anybody know how to adjust the display brightness on the Surge. I find mine dark and hard to see.

Sorry, but there are no settings to change the brightness.

Thank you for the quick response.

Is there an automatic brightness sensor on the device?

[Lockman]

I am unsure.
Where is it located?

Thanks for stopping by guys @Lockman and @SunsetRunner! @Lockman have you check the settings on your Surge to see if the "Backlight" is turn on or off? 

Just like @SteveH said at the moment there is no option to change the brightness or an automatic brightness sensor on the Fitbit Surge. Though, I think it'd be great to have this option. Why don't you take a moment to review this requests, I found some options in our Feature Suggestions board that you might like: 

-Surge white background & black text display

-Offer Surge Display in two modes

I just got my surge and the screen is so dark I cannot read it - my wife's Fitbit charge 2 is much much better - developers please help

Thanks for taking a break from stepping @User9, and welcome to the Forums! Congratulations on your new Surge, as I mentioned above you can check to turn on the "Backlight" on your  Surge, in case that you haven't do so. Fitbit Charge 2 screen is different from the Surge so I it might be a little bit more brighter than the Surge.  

Let me know if you have more questions!
