[Gassar]

Hi, I am a new user to the Fitbit charge 3.

please, could you help me with my issue regarding:

How can I get accelerometer data from my Fitbit charge 3?

If I can not get accelerometer data from Charge 3, what are the alternative options, please?

With many thanks

Assuming you mean more than just step count,

you might get better responses on one of the developer boards:

Web API Development  or SDK Development 

and the "Important Links" near top right of those pages.

Sorry @Gassar but this data you can not get to and the Bluetooth communication is encrypted. 

Your alternative would be to by an XYZ accelerometer and use an arduino to harvest the data. This is how Fitbit got started.

Thank you Rich_Laue for your feedback, 

please, could you explain to me more about an XYZ accelerometer and an Arduino, how can I get these kinds of sensors? What is about Fitbit versa 2 or Fitbit Lonic?

If there is any guidance or tutorial, please let me know.

Thanks a lot, JohnnyRow for your feedback.

The xyz sensor simple measures changes in speed in any direction. Fitbit users this data to determine the movements of the tracker. 

As for arduino. A search of the web will bring up a lot of info.

Thanks a lot.
