Charge 6 clock face plus issues

FITBIT GUYS - PLEASE REVIEW THESE 4 IDEAS!!!!

*****************

#1 New simple clock faces

All the chat forums have users complaining about the available clock faces

• Too fancy, slanted numbers, cant read the time, vertical format clock face

I think these options I show below would greatly improve the functionality and the users would be much happier

No fancy colours or cutoff numbers – nothing is slanted or blury – everything is clear and concise.

Plain and simple – no tapping to change between displayed stats – this is really annoying

Nobody wants to stare at their watch for longer then a second

Users want to see all the details in one glance

All devices would benefit from these new clocks – not just the charge 6

Sample #A

- includes hourly target 250 steps

- all the stats fitness people want to see (date / time / steps / battery / hourly activity)

Sample #B

- same as above minus the hourly activity

#2 Hourly activity – 250 steps

When you check hourly activity you can’t tap to see your days progress – you get locked out of the second screen

It would be great to combine these 2 screens to show daily progress with hourly progress on 1 screen – no tapping

The principle is similar to the view in the app on your phone:

White shows a missed hour (you could use any colour)

Red shows a completed hour (you could use any colour)

Orange is the hour in progress – with an hourly step count in the middle

Count shown below (example 1 of 10 hours achieved 250+ steps)

#3 Side button – long press functionality

The Versa 4 allows a long press / press and hold functionality using the side button

Would be great if the Charge 6 could allow this

It would be great to activate the water lock? This is really cumbersome right now especially if the screen is already wet – scrolling down a wet screen to get to the water lock feature isn’t a good procedure.

#4 Double tap to turn off water lock

This is a very aggressive action and feels like its going to break the watch

Maybe as above you could use the side button to deactivate also.

Press and hold side button for 3 seconds to activate / deactivate water lock.

Hello @will1234 

Thank you for your great suggestions.

Please submit your clock face suggestions in the Product Feedback forum (<-- click link). This is where users can submit feature requests and other users can vote for the request. I understand that the developers routinely monitor this forum for future features.

I've been a fitbit user since the beginning. This is disappointing. I don't care for stairs and calories but if I want hr and steps I have to have the others. Loved the old customizable faces on other watches. No idea how there isn't a semi basic clock with just battery life, heart rate, and steps.

Fully concur. It seems strange that other manufacturers seem to read the sugestions/complaints made here, and implement them in their products. Just a plain, simple, discrete but informative display.
