Hi @DavidNS, and thanks for taking the time to share this product feedback about being able to reorder the list of exercises on your Charge 6 with us.

The new Charge 6 comes with the list of exercises on the tracker and then a "More" to select other exercises. For most people, we only use the same 4-5 exercises on a consistent basis. This creates a lot of unnecessary scrolling (eg Spinning which is near the bottom). Old versions let us reorganize the shortcut list. Please bring that back.

I 100% agree that ease of exercise selection is one of the most important features for a fitness tracker. Please help put the feature back as soon as possible. Thank you!
What's more: the order or apps in the first place. Too many swipes requires to get to where you want from the home screen. Such an easy way to improve UX.
I agree on this. Choosing which exercises appear and in which order is important. I do a lot of different exercises to mix things up, but only on a week by week basis. Not having this feature is almost a no-go. I just upgraded from the charge 5 and was shocked that this feature is no longer available.
There is no available to change workout order on the Charge 6 device either on the app or on dashboard. That's what Fitbit support team member told me.
Hi @Janeksv, thanks for sharing this product feedback about being able to reorder the Exercise app list on your Charge 6 with us. This idea was already requested in this board, so I’ve moved your post here. This will help us to make sure the product feedback shared here doesn't get confused, or split a popular vote. Please click on the thumbs-up to show your support.
It's very silly to require swiping through a long list of items you'll never use when we should be able to customize the order from the FitBit app. This would make it much more convenient for quickly starting a handful of routines we use.
I totally agree. I don't do any of the default top few exercises. I want swimming to be easily selected, as it was on my Charge 5. It is absolutely incomprehensible why Fitbit are taking backwards steps on new versions.
Removing possibility to select favourite exercises is a TERRIBLE choice for "improvement". Such downgrade pushes me to start considering choosing your competition. Please bring it back
Previously before the app update and with my old charge 3, you could reorder the exercises through the app for display on your watch.
I can no longer do this as every exercise is just listed in the watch, which in theory sounds great as previously you could only have 6 but as someone who’s main activities are walking and yoga this is bad.

PLEASE PLEASE bring back the ability to reorder the exercises on the Charge 6! Yoga, which is a daily routine for me is at the bottom of a time consuming scroll through exercises that have nothing to do with me!! Thank you in advance for your speedy update to this problem!
This is something I also used for my Charge 5. I just received a replacement for a defective Charge 5 and the exercises have been reset and I can't reorder them. This is EXTREMELY annoying, to the point that I am rethinking my purchase.
I had just received my new Charge 6 when I posted my comment to the board, but now, after actually using the exercise, I have found that the exercises I am using are right on top, then the exercises I have not used are below and in alphabetical order. I am very happy with the way the exercises are working.
I really need this. I came from the Inspire HR and even there it was possible to sort the exercises. I don't run, I usually only bike and swim and I hate to scroll to oblivion to select the swimming option.
I do agree, messing with my new charge 6 is a bit fiddly, anything to simplify its usage would be good. The default exercise is running, I have bad knees for running so I would prefer weights for my default please.
Agree with all the above comments. With my previous Charge 3, I could select yoga right off the top without needing glasses. I missed the first few poses in yoga tonight trying to scroll down to find it at the bottom. I ended up logging under aerobics instead. Nice to have the option of all the different exercises but I rarely do most of them. Please bring back the ability to select our top five or so!!
