So I updated my Charge 6 this morning (on Android) now the repeating alarms are showing grey with a cross and the only way I can have them on is to have a 1 time alarm any ideas?
I've restarted the watch uninstalled the app on my phone and check DND and sleep mode and neither are on.

Why was this update pushed to me? It's been known to have issues for over a month! I need these alarms for work. Understand you affect people's livelihoods when pushing bad firmware to the public!

I did a test this morning and even though the repeating alarm was grey when I went to bed it still went off this morning at the correct time.

@DavidFitbit - It's now been two weeks since you said this issue had been escalated to a higher-level department and two months since initial reports that Fitbit broke our devices. What is the expected timeline for Fitbit to correct their error and restore functionality?

This issue has claimed another victim (me.)
Expect I am using an Inspire 3 -- I have updated, saw the problem, done a factory reset and now cannot re-setup.

For Inspire 3, factory reseting did seem to reset the update. I had trouble with re-setting up my device, and had to manually "Forget" the bluetooth device in my Android phone.
I cant speek for your device.

Same issue here. I don't know if I was more infuriated or relieved to find this thread. This does explain why I somehow slept past my alarm every day this week...but I can't believe this has been a known issue for this long and isn't resolved yet.

Thank you for sharing this! I was having the same problem, and your comment helped me know how to fix it.

🙋🏼 I've also been sad about this issue since the firmware update - but on my Inspire 3! 😒

how is this still broken?
I rely on this functionality, and it's a major reason why I purchased another Fitbit - I've been using Fitbit for years and just bought this Charge 6 to replace my Charge 5.

Same, very disappointing this issue was reported a almost 2 months, firmware was still pushed to my devices and another month later this still hasnt been resolved. Its an alarm application, seems like a pretty basic piece of SW

Can we get an update on this please? I have two affected inspire 3s and a brand new Charge 6 that I see the red dot for the update wanting to install for a few weeks now, and I refuse to install it. I need to adjust notification settings on my Charge but I can't because I have to do the update first. This is very inconvenient.
