Range based Goal

[Guilcolax]

I like the new sleep benchmark range report. It is an example of a 'goal' model that I'd like to see with Fitbit. My preference is to set my goals in a range; Sleep 6.5 to 7 hours, Steps 10 to 12 k, etc... For OCD type people the goals and missing it by just a smidge can be frustrating and counter productive to the intent of the app.

This also applies to comparison. I don't like to be compared in steps as people are all over the map and a Marathon runner will always have more steps than me and I don't want to feel defeated. I'd rather see things like % of goal comparisons for the day and over time.

Point being, Fitbit is a great tracker but the finite settings can cause people anxiety that undermines why they purchased the product - to have a system that supports their goal of a healthier life style. Becoming obsessed and then depressed by 'missing' a target is a real challenge for many folks.

Thanks for the thoughts and considerations on this topic.
