Lost Charge 5 - suggestions for a new Fitbit

[yetain]

My Charge 5 fell off yesterday and is nowhere to be found. Of course it was in a busy thrift store—so I hope the new owner enjoys it.

Anyway now need a new step tracker. I have fibro and severe osteoarthritis in my spine so all I am doing is tracking steps and sleep data. I don’t need gps or music apps, just the health data. I still have several months of premium so I am considering another fitbit. Thanks in advance for any insight. 🙂

Hi, @yetain , I once lost a Fitbit in a busy supermarket, so I have a tip for you.  I went back the next day and opened my app and watched to see if my Fitbit would sync.  It did! So I knew it was in there somewhere… despite the manager assuring me it wasn’t.  I did find it, stuck in one of the shopping baskets.  This trick won’t work, of course, if your Fitbit is out of battery.  Also if your Fitbit has disappeared from your account that will mean someone else has found it and attached to their own account.

If you aren’t able to find your Charge 5, then for your needs I would recommend the Inspire 3.  It is an excellent basic Fitbit, and for me tracks steps and sleep flawlessly and has a bright colour screen.  It is also small and delicate enough that it can be dressed up a little if you change bands - although there are not many “dressy” bands available for it.

You might also like the Luxe which is a little smaller, and can be made a bit dressier.  My daughter loves her Luxe.

Welcome to the forums!  Let us know what you decide (and if your Charge 5 ever turns up).
