How do I check daily elevation on Charge 5?

I used to be able to see the elevation but I can’t find where it shows it anymore. Does anyone know?

Hi @Elbee28  the Charge series 5 and 6 do not have an altimeter. The Charge 4 was the last one to have it. Can't get elevation without the altimeter.

Oh yah my old fitbit had it ! I wonder why they removed it in a newer model. Does anyone know if it will be brought back in future models?

I'm not sure, although it's been suggested in the Product Feedback area of the forum, where you can tell Fitbit/Google what you want.

@Elbee28   Fitbit/Google rarely give a reason for product changes.  But I read one of those teardown articles when the Charge 5 was released.  It an article where someone takes it apart piece by piece and you can see how it is put together.  The Charge 5 added that hardware for the ECG and EDA scans.  The author thought that Fitbit couldn't add the altimeter and keep the smaller size.  Just one opinion.
