Each time you pick up your Fitbit Ultra, words of encouragement are displayed.
Three words or phrases are stored on the Fitbit Ultra and are updated randomly each time you
sync.
The Chatter display can be disabled from the Fitbit Ultra setup screen.
Greeting (Fitbit Ultra only)
A greeting can be displayed each time you pick up your Fitbit Ultra.
The greeting is displayed after the chatter message if that feature is enabled.
Greetings can be 8 characters long containing numbers, letters, and many special characters.
The Greeting can be set, updated, or disabled on the Fitbit Ultra setup screen.
Lefty Mode
Fitbit Ultra Trackers can be displayed in Lefty mode which is enabled on the Fitbit Ultra setup screen.
Lefty mode is where the display gets flipped upside down so that to read it, the button is on the left
(pushed with the left hand).
Beginner Mode
Beginner mode displays the words before displaying the value with the icon (e.g.,Steps is displayed
before "7482" and the steps icon). After the display has cycled through each screen 5 times, beginner
mode will end and you will be in normal operating mode. In normal mode, the value and icon is
displayed immediately for faster viewing. Any time your Tracker is reset, it will enter beginner mode.
This will happen if you manually reset your Tracker (see Resetting Tracker), upgrade the firmware (see
Upgrading Firmware) or the battery goes completely dead and the Tracker is powered back on when
you place it on the base station. To exit beginner mode, simply press the button 20 times (which will
cycle between steps, distance, calories, and the flower five times each).
Recordings
A recording is similar to the trip mode on the odometer in your car.
To start a recording, hold the button down for 2+ seconds until you see the word Start. With Fitbit
Ultra, you will instead see a stopwatch start.
When in recording mode, the display icons will blink indicating that you are in recording mode.
