Yes you will need to click on your profile in the app > select Gallery > Select Clocks and there's 29 clock face styles to choose from. For me personally I just used the same one I had on my Charge 5 which was the Target clock face.

I was coming here to ask whether we yet know what clock faces are available for the Charge 6. Especially if there are some more basic ones than the Charge 5, like Target. Time/date, heart rate choice, less of the colorful graphics. (Such a boring user)

Hi @jgammon

To answer your question, no one knows yet until we get the devices in hand.

Going from all previous Charge trackers, it has always been possible to change the clock face. I would think the case would be the same with the Charge 6.

I agree with @N8teGee .

However Fitbit is not new to remove features that users/customers takes for granted when upgrading (remember when we discovered the lack of Google Assistant or, even better, the laxk of any music capabilities from the flagships Versa 4, Sense 2 or, to remain in the Charge series, when they removed the altimeter in the Charge 5?).

Now removing the possibility to change clock faces oh boy, that would something very special!!! [Sarcastic mode OFF]

Yes. You can select from a few faces and change the colours. TBH I wanted to change the display and the choices were average so stuck with the default.

thanks! I actually decided against upgrading to a Charge 5 after my Charge 4 band fastener broke because I thought all the faces I saw were circus colors. But that Target is pretty close to the Retro I've been using on my Charge 4. now I'll just read more opinions on the Charge 6, but am more positive on it

Thanks! I couldn't see them at first but now I do.

The Charge 6 comes with 29 clock faces. None of which I am crazy about.

@halfmarathonrun clock faces are pretty much all the same. Can't find any with more data on screen. My contender to The Worst Clock Face Award is "Hawaiian Punch":

So what time it is? Which way should I read it? Usually, you just need a quick glance to check the time but not with "Hawaiian Punch" .

Agreed! Has to be one of the worst.

Are there no analog style (normal round clock) faces available? This is awful lol 

Best Answer

All the alternative watch faces are equally dreadful.

They all look like they were designed by a small child let loose with colouring crayons after consuming too much sugar.

Best Answer

There are two analog faces for the Charge 6 and they are aweful!

Your are right about that! My old Charge 4 had better faces. I wonder if Fitbit will allow other developers to design faces we can use? Even the Apple watch stock faces are better.

It's crazy. The clock face on my Charge 3 was way better!71Swqqe7XAL._AC_UF1000,1000_QL80_.jpg

Best Answer

That's an even better description than my reaction to the Charge 5 faces as a clown car! (Which, Google/Fitbit, is why I replaced my Charge 4 with ... a Charge 4 when the band pins broke)

Hello everyone. Thank you so much for your posts about the clock faces and your feedback. 

There are several options available. There will be one clock face that will display the stats that you are looking for. Some of the clock faces offer this feature, when you tap on them, the stats displayed on screen will cycle and you will be able to check the stats directly from the clock face. I understand some may not appeal to you, but that is the reason there are several option. 

The best place to make your voice heard is the "Product Feedback" board, where you can submit your ideas and share it with other members. The suggestions with more votes are taken into consideration by our developers for new updates or product development.

I have chosen the ‘normal’ clock (Symphony) but it shows ‘active minutes’ and I would like the one without any other data shown, only the clock. It is the right one of the four screenshots below, but how can I choose one of these? It stays the same.

@SusanAmsterdam each clock face you can tap to show next metric. Symphony shows AZM, steps and HR.

Best Answer

Thanks! Unfortunately there is no clock without metrics. Would have liked a more traditional watch-clock.
