Fitbit is one of the most important companies in the segment of smart wearables. Rather than a complete smartwatch, its Charge lineup provides some quick information and allows you to monitor your activities or track your health. The company has consolidated its place in the market with the Fitbit Charge 4 but also gave an important step with its predecessor Fitbit Charge 3. Today, the company is showing some love to users that haven’t upgraded to the newer model. The Fitbit Charge 3 is getting a new update that brings most of the features available in Charge 4.
The new update reaching Charge 3 users boasts version 1.88.11 number and we can consider this a massive update. As aforementioned, it brings several features that are available in Charge 4. It will greatly improve the user experience and give some fresh air to the old smartband. The new update includes Smart Wake Alarm in the device itself. So you won’t need to open up the app on the smartphone. The second major update includes a different screen timeout. It allows users to set a longer timeout of the screen. That is a kind of feature that should have been available since the beginning.
