Can I rearrange exercise types order on Charge 6?

[PerfectBlue]

On my previous Charge 2, 3 and 4 I could delete unused exercise options, and change the order in which they appear, button my Charge 6, I can't seem to find the option on the app or in the web interface.

I'm having to scroll through a dozen options that I don't use in order to get to the ones that I do use, and every couple of scrolls I accidentally press one that I don't want, so I'm having to go back to the beginning again. This is especially difficult while wearing gloves.

Is it possible to get rid of these unused options, and if not can it please be requested as a feature. I'm having to scroll through skiing, snowboarding and surfing, non of which I'm ever likely to do in my entire life, to get to things tat I do a couple of times a week.

Hi there, @PerfectBlue.

Thanks for the detailed information, I'm glad you're getting used to your Charge 6. Let me share that instead of having shortcuts, our team wanted you to have access to all exercises on your tracker so you can start right away without needing to sync with the Fitbit app first.

Nevertheless, I understand how useful this function was for you and I'd encourage you to vote for this idea already requested in the Product Feedback board. Our team strives to improve our devices, and the feedback we receive from our members is a big part of the process.

Just set up charge 6 after charge 4 stopped tracking and was cutting out, very disappointed in charge 6 so far. I use 3 main exercises, swimming mostly, and would have thought shortcuts would have been standard. Please could this be updated!

Welcome on board, @X26RLA.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with your Charge 6. The Exercise app was changed so that you can have access to all the exercise types at once, instead of having to switch them prior to your activity. 

However, I understand where you're coming from and I'd encourage you to vote for the idea shared above so our developers can continue tracking its demand over time. We value your input and we'll continue working to improve our products and services.

I was similarly annoyed at first until I realized that the list of exercises reorganizes itself - once you use an exercise mode, it comes to the top of the list. Thus, you only need to scroll couple of times at the beginning, and then your frequently used exercises will be at the top.

Hi there, @Gryllotalpa.

Thanks for joining this thread and bringing this to our attention. You're right about the Recent section in the Exercise app where you'll find the exercises that you recently used at the top. This list will continue updating depending on the exercise types selected.

I'm sure your post will help other members and hope you can keep enjoying the experience with your Charge 6!

How do you remove an exercise from the "recents" section?

Hello @JoeT-123 

I haven't seen a way to manually remove an exercise from the "recent" section.

That said, the "recent" section has a limited number of workouts that it will show. When you do other exercises/activities, the one you want to remove will eventually get dropped.
