Fitbit Premium Mindfulness Exercises Missing?

[EJNIV]

What happened to the Premium Mindfulness Exercises?   I noticed on Saturday (24 September 2022) that they were missing, and have been checking since then.  Now, all that shows are checkmarks for previous days with completions, "Mindful Sessions" and "Mindful Minutes."  Tapping on Mindful Sessions shows nothing.  Charge 5 (updated firmware), Samsung s22+ and long time Premium subscriber and Fitbit user (dating back to Charge 2).

Thanks,

Ed

Same issue here.

Same. I was able to do a mindfulness session on Saturday morning, but when I tried to do one on Sunday morning the list was missing like you describe. I have an Inspire 2 that I use with a Google Pixel 3.

I am not seeing that list either when I tap on Mindfulness in the Today screen of the app. I don't know what is going on, but there is a workaround, if you want to continue doing Mindfulness sessions in the app. 

If you tap on the Discover tab at the bottom of the Today screen, then scroll down to Mindfulness, and tap See All, that will bring up a list of all the Mindfulness options. Then you can select one there.

@EJNIVwrote that he uses an Android phone.  Do you all use Android phones?  If so, this post can get moved to the Android forum as a possible Android bug.  I use iPhone and my screen app seems to be working normally.

@LZeeW I use Android as well. 

[Scott337]

I use Android also. There is already a similar post in the Android App section.

Thanks for the tip! 👍

Thanks so much alexthecat.  Still hope this gets addressed/fixed since some of the more popular exercises I was using showed up when I tapped on "See all."  I have been able to find one of my favorites and maybe it will be added to "favorites."  Really helpful, thanks so much for sharing.

@EJNIV I agree with you. It's helpful to have a workaround, but this problem still needs to be fixed.

Agreed:

While this may function, it's not an easy workaround.

Yes, I'm on an Android phone. It seems to have disappeared after the last FitBit app update.

Please bring back the option to choose a session from inside the tile.

I'm an Android user.

This reminds me of something Microsoft might say after an update - it's not a bug, it's an unintended "feature"

[EJNIV]

Interesting, it seemed to work (have "Show All") for a few days and now it's gone again.  Plus, have you noticed that when attempting to sign into the Fitbit Community, click on send code, nothing happens.  I have to wait click again to finally receive the code to login.  Looking forward to permanent solution.

My Mindful options (which quick meditation I'd like to do) is now showing
in the tile again, about 5 of them.

Still takes about 5 minutes after syncing the session to see the HR change,
but I'm used to that!
