How to Check Your Fitbit’s Battery
If you’re relying on your Fitbit to stay on top of your physical activity, keeping an eye on your device’s battery life is key. You wouldn’t want your tracker to give up in the middle of a workout. Fortunately, checking the battery level on your Fitbit is a straightforward process. Here’s how you can ensure your Fitbit stays charged and ready to go.
1. Through Your Fitbit Device
Most Fitbit devices display their battery level when you swipe down from the top of the screen or through a quick settings menu. If it’s not immediately visible, you may find it within the device’s ‘Settings’ menu under ‘About’ or ‘Device Info.’
2. Via the Fitbit Mobile App
For a more detailed view:
– Open the Fitbit app on your smartphone or tablet.
– Go to the ‘Today’ tab.
– Tap on your profile picture at the top-left corner of the screen.
– Select your device from the list.
– Here, you’ll see the battery icon next to the image of your Fitbit showing its current charge level with a text such as ‘Full,’ ‘Medium,’ ‘Low,’ or ‘Empty.’
3. Through Notifications
You can set up notifications to alert you when your Fitbit’s battery is low:
– In the mobile app, go to your device settings.
– Look for ‘Notifications’ or similar settings where you can toggle on the option for receiving battery low alerts.
4. Fitbit Dashboard on Browser
If you prefer using a computer over a mobile app, simply log into your account on fitbit.com and look at the dashboard. Your device’s battery level will be visible somewhere on this main page.
Remember that most Fitbits will typically last about 5 days depending on usage and model, but always check for specific information related to your particular device. Additionally, habits like overnight charging can ensure that you never have to worry about a dead Fitbit during waking hours. Stay in charge by keeping tabs on your tracker’s power supply!
