Get back to school ready with Fitbit Ace LTE

Start the school year off right with healthy habits

Whether your kids are moving on stage in drama class or playing capture the flag in gym class, Fitbit Ace LTE helps motivate movement and reward kids when they complete Daily Quests. To help develop lifelong healthy habits, we're partnering with experts from Alliance for a Healthier Generation, a leading children's health organization, to deliver evidence-based health content for Ace LTE. Keep an eye out for interesting new tasks and challenges in Daily Quests.

Based on your feedback, we're also working on bringing families closer together with Fitbit Ace. You'll be able to add siblings - whether they're an older sibling with a phone or a younger sibling with an Ace LTE - as your child's contact in the Fitbit Ace app.2 This will make it easier for them to communicate and coordinate with each other - like if they want to meet up after school. Look out for this coming later this year.3

Try new games for kids to play before and after school

Sproutlings and Spirit Garden are two new games on the Fitbit Arcade that turn movement - like the walk to school - into play time! Each game is designed to be fully immersive and interactive thanks to the use of haptics, sounds, the built-in accelerometer and more. Plus, the more kids move, the more game time they unlock.
