Add parents that aren't in family link.

In today's world, it's highly likely that kids have more than 2 parents. It would be nice to be able to add a parent to our child's account that isn't part of our Family Link. This would give the other parent(s) the ability to see where they are on the map, check movement, and control some of the parental settings. It could be as simple as checking a box on a contact that elevated the contacts permissions to parent level and giving that contact a few more options within their app. This would also be good for anyone that has a grandparent or other guardian that isn't in the Family Link group and it's not feasible to add them to it.

Hi @Jermschmidt ,

Currently, you can add other adults to the Family Link app, as I have done.  However, only two of them can have parental permissions.  It's actually quite simple to add family members to Family Link , all the contact would need is a Gmail address.  Once they are added, they can then be added as contacts in the Fitbit Ace app .  Once they do that, anyone can contact the child.

However, if you would like to add feedback about expanding parental controls, you can send feedback in the Ace app or head over to the Product Suggestions board where it will be seen by the engineers who work on the product.
