Sleep data with new layout

[Susanhill1910]

I suppose there was an update. The app presents sleep data differently.  Have others noticed this?

I miss seeing how long episodes of awake, light, REM and deep sleep are

Moderator edit: Subject for clarity.

Since the update my sleep time starts after midnight no matter what time I go to sleep. This means I’m now averaging about 4.5 hours of sleep. The new graph I’m not a fan of but will get used to it.

LIES! PROPAGANDA! The Fitbit app has gone steadily downhill since Google acquired it. 1st, the activity section lost the ability to record a bunch of useful activities making that section of the app unusable. Now, the sleep section is harder to read, spread out over several screens, & does not display benchmarks! To post positive information about this app is dishonest & betrays an unhealthy bias. Tell the truth--Google has ruined a useful application & refuses to correct its errors!

The update is horrible for sleep tracking!  It's umpossible to read and "benchmark" isn't there either.  Why do companies insist on fixing something that isn't broken?   Please, please put it back to the way it was!!!

Why is it so hard to get a sleep score? It’s supposed to give you a sleep score if it’s able to track your sleep for more than a few hours. My Fitbit does good at that but I don’t get the sleep score.

I hate the messy new layout. The previous layout was clear and easy to take in. In addition it gave an overall sleep quality verdict 'good', 'average' and 'poor' which I really liked. Can we pls have the old layout back.  

[Cancon]

You cuks have gotten thousands of message to go back to the last version. Bet I’ll just bet you fat bastards won’t do. I challenge you, no double dog dare you to put it back the way it was, a user friendly and quite pleasant feature of your great app. 

yall effed up so go back and fix it!

[maherlihy]

Why would that have changed. Please re-up the former view. It is not helpful. 

[CRWheeland]

Complete and utter boneheaded failure on the new sleep format of the app… what in the world is FitBit thinking, perhaps Google is trying to sink this ship, that’s how bad a move this was!!!

[Ronka88]

@chipfrazier exactly :hundred_points:!

[Donny2]

Totally agree with you. Change doesn't bother me normally but this is just awful. It's virtually impossible to read and understand. Too much info on one page. Please revert back , I think there is enough support on this forum for you to realise that it's not a good look.

I just today had to update my app.today. I am very disappointed in this new update! It used to be so easy to use and read the sleep scores . Now it reads like a formal medical graph. Not user friendly at all. I am using the Fitbit premium right now but will cancel soon. I’m hoping when I cancel the graphs and how they look will be much easier to read. I don’t see anywhere to make adjustments . Come on folks( google) this app was enjoyable and easy to get around . You know the old saying@ if it ain’t broke don’t fix it.!” Why do you always feel the need to change things when they were so easy to use. I mainly use the sleep app. Now I feel I have to read medical records just to see my sleep log/ session. I haven’t even looked at how the steps are going to play out . Im a pretty computer savy 74 year woman . I just like to see the sleep graph with these older eyes a bit easier. Not all those think the lines y ou just added are helpful info. A little help here , also you folks sitting at your computers and thinking this stuff up, we are not all 25 year olds! Older folks have lots of issues with sleep, so let’s help them to read those kooky graphs you just forced on all of us!There are still a lot of seniors using your product and I’ll guarantee you just did not make their day!! It’s also almost impossible to put your fingers on the sleep graph , to read sleep stages and numbers. To finicky, it’s a long thinnnnn line that most of the time doesn’t move. This new look of the sleep graph is ridiculous . Not user friendly at all.

[Walk61]

Absolutely hate this new graph! Why would they change such a good thing? Tempted to switch to something else now after years of different fitbits. 

[Brober0802]

The new sleep layout SUCKS.

[Donny2]

Couldn't agree more. Well said that lady !!

[VLizzo]

I hate the new layout.  It actually took AWAY data.  

Fitbit -- PLEASE bring back the interactive feature where you can tap on your overall sleep timeline (REM, deep, etc) and get.hover information on exact times of the night.  For example, I want to be able to tap and hold on any stretch of being awake and see the TIMESTAMPS (e.g. awake 12:11 - 12:15 am, or REM 2:15 - 2:35 am, awake 2:35 - 2:40, light 2:40 - 3 am....etc.).

I also hate the non-dark color scheme, the lack of ability to isolate each sleep stage, and the nonsensical difficulty of editing sleep -- but the removal of timestamp hover information is my biggest issue.  Seems this entire BS redesign was to push "premium" by making your "sleep animal" much more prominent on the fitbit home dashboard. It certainly wasn't to make more data more visible (it actually took away insights).  This was not designed for the user, but for the marketing team to drive premium subscriptions.

I DO NOT like the feedback about sleep. The other format provided more specific information. I understood how the score was created and now I'm not sure. Please fix or go back to other version. It appears I'm not the only one. 

And, it was NOT easy to give this feedback. I don't have Twitter and don't want it and just finding how to send a message about this took way too long.

[Lindamarymann]

And the Benchmark doesn't show a Benchmark!!!  I HATE these changes, I use a Charge 2

[Counselor123]

yes, it suggests BENCHMARKS, but then doesn't display like the old version did.

[Chappymomokie]

Same…I feel like the ease of viewing and the aesthetics of the app have taken a step backwards.
