   Usually a smartphone is not turned off after pushing the on-off-button, only   
   the display is turned of while the other devices are still running, f.e. to   
   ring at incoming calls.   
      
   If you really shut down the phone nothing will work, neither WLAN/WiFi nor   
   BT, really nothing.

   Usually these watches can be configured to keep its display continuously   
   active or to switch display off after some seconds. Fitbits seem to be able   
   to switch display on again after fast accelerations.
