November Android App drastically increased data usage with Charge 3 Fitbit

[KevinKy]

Something has changed with the fitbit app.  I saw there was a data usage problem a year ago that was resolved.  I think the problem has returned.

From Sep 26-Oct 25 my Fitbit app on Android Pie used 18.72 MB  not bad

From Oct 26-Nov 21 my Fitbit app has used 317 MB of data!!  

I already have Background Data restricted.  This 317 is all foreground.  

What is causing that?  Please fix.  I do not have unlimited data. I'm on a prepaid data plan.  This 317 MB is approximately $3 for no reason.

Anyone else have this issue?  Anyone from Fitbit can you help resolve?

Hi @KevinKy  I'm using the same app on a Samsung Galaxy S8 (Android version 9) and have notifications, texts and calls on. It's not using that much data for me. Do you log out of your app when not using it? I have mine on all the time.
