Yes, please bring back the old one or at least add the ability to shows how much time I spent in each sleep zone like the old one. it shows the start and end time, but does not say "33 mins" of deep from 12am to 12:33am
I hated the new look at first, but I am used to it now and it presents the same nightly data as it did before, so OK.... HOWEVER.... it no longer adds sleep data from later in the day. I usually have a 'siesta' (unlike you young folk) and it no longer details that time. I used to like to look and see how long I had actually been asleep for, rather than resting, and the app added that time to my daily sleep amount. Am I missing something, or am I right? Please bring back the full version of sleep data tracking.
You are not the only one. It was so nice and colourful and simple to read. I thought it was because my premium subscription had run out. Nope it's on purpose!
Thank you for your work. Perhaps tech publications who do reviews on smart watches such as PCWorld, etc might find this issue including the way it's being handled an important story?

There are many articles that have been written lately about the problems with Fitbit and how they are transitioning to Google. Right now you do not need to move your account to Google but come this fall the plan is to make it mandatory. Some users who have moved their account to Google are experiencing more problems than those who have not. They are probably not going to change anything back to how it was before. They are transitioning the Fitbit to their platform which includes the Pixel line. The inevitable is staring all of us in the face. Google bought Fitbit a few years ago. If what they are doing is so disturbing start looking for another option.
At first, I was surprised at what I saw and didn't know what to make of it. Now, after several weeks, I like it. It took a little getting used to but it's good.
you have no ability to drill into the sleep phases. Those with sight disabilities (not blind, of course) can't see the graphs anymore. Without the ability to drill into the sleep phases, physicians can't study the patterns any longer. 90% of the people think it's horrible. you're in the 10% that don't want to throw away their Fitbit watch (and many already have)
I'll be shopping soon. Too bad, it was a birthday present. Had I been shopping for one years ago I probably wouldn't have bought a Fitbit anyway.
Google doesn't really care that people are unhappy with their product. They're waiting for all this dust to die down or they're actually not even caring and not waiting at all. I think they're just ignoring.
There's an old adage that when someone has a good experience with a service or product they tell a person. When they have poor service or poor product they tell 25 people. So, that's what's going to happen with fitbit. It will get a poor reputation and it's possible that sales will go down. We had a good product at one time that served many of us for our sleep needs and now it doesn't.

@JackieJay I am still looking. I found one with a similar sleep display that we loved on Fitbit, but so far have not been able to see an expanded view to see if we can scroll down through all the past days. I'm trying to find out.
I can’t read it! I look at this information when I’m in bed, on my cellphone. My glasses don’t come to bed with me. This is the weirdest update ever. I’ve been a Fitbit user since 2016, and this update is just the worst. When my current device dies I will be seeking out different options. And I guess we all will need to seek different options as Google is phasing out Fitbit. Probably the only reason why they acquired Fitbit in the first instance.
