Can I go back to the old dashboard? I do not like the look and feel of this at all. It's messy, and the screen is busy! Please, how can I go back to the old one? Honestly, had I known this change was coming I wouldn't have just purchased a brand new tracker

Sure you can go back, @TriciaA25, at least for now.  If you go to the Account screen, scroll down to Advanced Settings, and then select "Switch back to the old dashboard".  It is good they left that option for people that want to switch back, but I personally prefer the new dashboard so don't need to switch back...

It's great to see you around @TriciaA25 and @USAF-Larry thanks for stopping by.

 

Keep in mind that Fitbit is always trying to make everything better for you guys and that's why our team designed this new dashboard. As mentioned by our friend here, you can go back to the old Dashboard by doing the following:

 

1. Tap account

2. Tap Advanced Settings

3. Tap Switch back to old Dashboard

 

Catch you later. Woman Happy

I agree the new dashboard is cluttered,  and not as user friendly.

Thank you for trying to make improvements,  please give us the option  I would love to delete or hide all the options I never use.

Thank you Jaye

The new dashboard looks fine on my tablet  ............but sucks big time on my phone. Just does not display in format that is quick, easy to read, and informative.  There should be a app for phones. Will be looking for another app for my fitbit and if unable to find a reasonable alternative will probably switch to another device after this one croaks.

Sorry, don't know how to capture screen.  But on new dashboard, it is at far upper right, next to battery symbol.   It's a Blue rectangle with 3 internal lines and a small internal circle

When I woke up this morning and opened my fitbit app. My phone automatically pushed updates overnight and now I have the new dashboard. I have tried it previously but I didn't like the new dashboard. I went to account and advanced settings, but the option to switch back isn't there.....please help.

While it was in beta I hated it, but then could at least switchback the classic dash is so much cleaner and allows you quick easy to read data. Fitbit please give us a choice again for the classic dash on Android
