Is the Charge 6 still worth buying?

[tokomlo1]

Used to have a Fitbit Charge 4 and absolutely loved it. After mine broke (around 2022) I haven’t used any fitness tracker since and I’d like to get one again. I only found out about Google discontinuing Fitbits after already placing an order for the Charge 6 (though it hasn’t shipped yet, I can still cancel it.)

Now having second thoughts about the Fitbit mainly about bug fixes or updates since they won’t be working on it anymore. I also heard the app UI sucks now.

Any recommendations for a different watch or should I just stick with it?

Not worth it. Recently replaced my charge 5 with charge 6 and there's so many problems. You can't set a recurring alarm (see top issue open for over 2 months), sync doesn't work half the time... Waiting on a support ticket where I've requested getting a new charge 5 to replace this lol

@tokomlo1 I'm not sure where you heard that Google is discontinuing Fitbit, but that is absolutely not the case! The Charge 6 is still supported and receives timely updates and bug fixes.
