Sleep Stages & Reminders
Your tracker will automatically track your sleep. Just wear it to bed!
Using heart rate, you can now track your time in light, deep & REM sleep, plus time awake.
Use the Fitbit app to manually adjust your sleep or set Sleep Reminders

Bedtime Reminders
Setting a bedtime reminder can help you maintain a consistent sleep schedule. Charge 2 will
prompt you to unwind 30 minutes before your bedtime target. You can set a bedtime reminder
using the app.
Silent Alarms
To wake up in the morning or alert you at a certain time of day, you can set silent alarms that
gently vibrate.
Use the Fitbit app to set and manage alarms. You can also manage existing alarms right on your
tracker.

To dismiss the alarm, double tap the tracker otherwise it will snooze once for 9 minutes.
Heart Rate
Charge 2 tracks your heart rate all day and during exercise.

See your heart rate on your tracker. When you exercise, the heart icon lets you know which heart
rate zone you're in.
In Peak zone
In Cardio zone
In Fat Burn zone
Out of zone
You can customize your heart rate zones in the Fitbit app.
Reminders to Move
Reminders to Move help you get moving every hour. Throughout your day, try to hit 250 steps
each hour.
We use 250 steps because it roughly equals a few minutes of walking. Moving regularly breaks
up stationary time and can help improve your well-being.

Personalize your Reminders to Move in the Fitbit app settings.
Tracking Exercise
Fitbit Charge 2 will automatically detect certain exercises and record them using our SmartTrack
feature which automatically recognizes continuous movement at least 15 minutes in length.
You can view the automatically detected exercise in your Fitbit app and adjust the duration for
each exercise type.
Real-time Stats
Use the Exercise menu to start a workout. You can tap to cycle through the different exercise
types and press and hold the button to start.

During your workout, tap to view different stats. To pause and resume your workout, press the
button. When you're done, press and hold the button to end your workout and see your stats.

Track your route
Some outdoor workouts can track your GPS route and give you more accurate real-time stats like
pace and distance when your phone is with you.

Make sure Bluetooth and GPS are both enabled to use the Connected GPS feature.
You can customize the activity types in the Fitbit app.
For best results, wait for GPS satellites to lock in on your location before you start.
Notifications
Charge 2 can receive phone calls, text messages and calendar alerts when near your phone.
Notifications vibrate when your phone receives them. Just lift and turn your wrist towards you or
press the button to see them.
