The white font on a white background is totally and completely useless. I cannot read anything on the screen and can find no way to change it. 

What I can see is almost meaningless. The graphics have been so simplified to make them insulting to Fitbit users.

Like so many others I would like to know why the battery life has been removed.

Hi, Janine1016, I just called Fitbit support a little while ago to complain about the new "toy" they've given us, and the first thing I complained about was the choice of fonts, especially the double-outlined letters. I said I'm 77 & this drives me nuts. Nothing looks professional any more. I can't find what I need. Things are missing. Information is given in a shrunken-down format that's hard to read or use. I no longer have an exercise tracker. None of the things I want is there any more. I don't care about zone minutes: I want to just know in plain English how many minutes I exercised and whether it was cardio or peak or not. ZIn short, I hate the newly-designed app. I asked who designed this thing. They thought it was beautiful? No it's not. There's no contrast. It's ugly. It's all so disgusting!! I said, "I didn't buy this!!"

Hi Gloria,

You have summed up exactly what I think about this new roll out. 

The completely bizzare thing is that, when I opened the app this morning,  all the big empty white boxes now have writing in in black font and the text which had been white on grey is now also black. At least I can read it now!
