Opened up the FitBit app today to a full screen advert suggesting I buy my Dad a Fitbit for Father’s Day. 

He passed away suddenly from a heart attack in 1998 aged only 46. 

How do I turn off these forced adverts especially when they show no regard for people’s personal circumstances / sensitive issues? 

Tried to look at “contact support” in the app but the choice of reasons for contact is incredibly limited and none of them match this issue. 

It’s pretty insensitive to force full screen adverts when a substantial number of people will be adversely affected. 

Thank you

No reply from anyone from FitBit despite loads of other replies to other posts. There’s no way this can have gone unnoticed and yet it’s been totally ignored.  

Nice.
