Does anyone else hate the app update that occurred a few days ago? They have changed the entire thing. The display is different, the icons, the layout. I find it very difficult to navigate . The app had been the same for at least 5 years and was really user friendly, the latest update is terrible. It also rounds distance and time, which is not helpful if you are training for an event and need to know seconds. I hope they receive a lot of negative feedback and go back to the old app layout.

I hate this new app. In the past, I could change the SPORT exercise name to Pickleball, or any other exercise name that I wanted, such as Snowshoeing, Rock Climbing, etc.. Now the only choice I get is to copy the word SPORT. Why on earth would I ever want to copy SPORT, since I have no need to paste it anywhere.

The colour is PUKE GREEN and no way to change it to something better.

I'm guessing this was designed by a guy at Fitbit or Google, that doesn't even use the app.

Totally agree this is the worst update ever. Everything used to be very compact easy to see all things logged and layout could be edited to arrange to personal taste. Now you can't fully edit within any sections. Everything is long and drawn out have to scroll far down page to see everything. Useless please fitbut revert to old layout.

I absolutely hate it and just cancelled my Premium Subscription. It is now basically just a pedometer for me. The app is so freaking bright that even in full daylight, right now, it hurts my eyes and while I understand learning new interfaces is just a short, annoying learning curve, the painful white makes me want to just delete it from my phone. I'll never know if it is a useful update in any way cause I cannot stand to look at it.
