Any tips for finding missing Fitbit in the house

Can’t specifically recall taking it off 🙈so not sure if it’s fallen off or if I have removed it whilst not concentrating.

My phone is showing that it has synced just now so assuming it must be in the house. Not had it that long, other than searching for it (obvious places checked) is there an easy way to find it (like with find my iPhone). It’s an inspire 3 if that makes a difference. Thank you

Do you have notifications set up so it vibrates when your phone rings? If so get someone to keep ringing you - I managed to find mine that way (needed total silence!)

Thanks, I don’t think I do, tried calling my phone and can’t hear anything! How annoying! Hopefully it will turn up in the morning.

Mine has ended up in the laundry basket when I've taken it off for a shower, if that helps.

Interested in this thread?

Have you benn hanging out washing, I found mine after a few weeks directly under the washing line.

I lost mine some years ago. The band had become weak / rotten (I must sweat acid!)

I eventually found it in in the bottom of a section of a laptop bag that I had put my hand in a long, long time previously. Is yours hidden deep in a section of a bag?

Good luck.

The only way you can guarantee it will be found is by buying a new one. I was convinced mine was gone forever, lost in a forest or beach following a dog walk or something so bought a new one. Found the old one under my bedside table a few days later.

I found mine in a coat pocket I don’t usually use. Unfortunately I had bought a new one by then.

Thanks all, I’ve found it! (in a bag of pumpkin light boxes waiting to go back into the loft, it must have fallen off when I was getting them out yesterday).

After a lot of googling I came across a Bluetooth finder app. Didn’t know such a thing existed. It detects different Bluetooth devices and the signal increases the closer you get to each one. It led me to the office, I thought it was faulty as I hadn’t been in there. Anyway sure enough it had fallen in the bottom of the bag with the empty boxes waiting to be put back into the loft. Don’t think I would have ever thought to look in there!
