Looking for Fitbit Friends

[YojanaFitbit]

Hey Community and Fitbitters around the world!

Are you looking for more information about how to connect with friends? This is definitely the right place!

Fitbit is expanding everyday and we want you to feel free and happy to share with all of us your thoughts, goals, personal trainings, achievements, pictures, stats and everything you would like us to see. 

• First things first, we want you to feel safe about what information you're sharing. So take a moment to read about how to personalize your Fitbit profile and be in control of the information you share with friends: How do I manage my Fitbit profile?

• Now, let's add some Fitbit friends. Since you're here, you can easily add Community Forums members to your friend list. Follow these steps!

  1. Click on user's Community profile page.

  2. Click "Go to Fitbit.com profile" next to user's profile image.

  3. Send a friend request. 

• Have you seen the option 'Community tab' on the Fitbit app? Excellent! You can join and take a look of our Feed, Friends and Group options. You might want to take a moment to learn more about this here: What should I know about the Fitbit Community?

  1. Feed: Share information, photos, and achievements with a group or with all your Fitbit friends.

  2. Friends: Cheer, taunt, or message your friends, keep up with them.

  3. Groups: Create or join a closed group in the Fitbit community to share tips and information.

Remember you can report Fitbit Community posts, users, and groups if you see something that you think isn't appropriate for our community.

As always, please reach out if you have any questions. Hurrah for new Fitbit Friends!

Blaze user since April, @ Central Time Zone. Fell off the wagon for a bit when outside world got covered in snow and ice. Trying to get back on track, mostly on treadmill. I have a desk job so workdays are not very helpful. Aiming for 10-20k steps a day.

Please add me! I have had a Fitbit for almost a year but only have 3 friends who don't participate in any challenges. I'm a stay-at-home mom (at least for now). My goal is 10k steps a day. I would like some active friends!

Would love to have more Fitbit friends to keep me motivated, but....

...I can't work out how/where I can put/find the 'friend' link

@SunsetRunner Please go to your profile page on the online dashboard. The link shown there is the link you can provide to your friends for them to add you! 

[SunsetRunner]

Aha.  I think I've got it now SanitiFitibit.  Thanks 👍🏻

I am also looking for some new friends. I have a sedentary job, need to lose weight, and am looking for anyone that would like to offer support and motivation, and receive it in return. Not much for "beating" people at challenges, as I am just starting on this journey. Thanks!

[Mizmimi]

I'm trying to add friends, but when I go to their profile as directed, I do not see an option to add them.

[SantiR]

@Mizmimi When you click on the links provided by our friends here on this thread you should be redirected to their profiles. You will see the name of the user and below it, you will see an "+ Add friend" option. Click that to send the invitations to your friend. I left a picture below showing how it looks!

Hope this helps! 

[Mizmimi]

When I clicked on your profile photo, I only have the option to send a message where add friend should be. I also cannot see where to edit my about me. Am I missing something??

[MaryVE]

@Mizmimi, You used to be able to click on a user's community profile and see a link to their main site profile where you could send them a friend request.  That has recently changed (boo, hiss).  Our community profiles no longer display the link to our main site profiles.  If you want to add someone as a friend you need to click on the links they post to their main site profiles.  If you post the link to yours, people will be able to send you a friend request too.

[Mizmimi]

Ohhhh. Good lord, I see it now. lol My link is as follows. Thanks so much for the help guys!! https://www.fitbit.com/user/25D9Q6

@Mizmimi, to edit your community profile hold your curser over the section you want to edit.  A pencil icon will appear on the right.  Click on that.

[Mizmimi]

Thank you so much! Gosh I have a lot to learn! lol

Hi, well I just got my fitbit because I felt like the app on my phone wasn't tracking my progress accurately, and I'm loving it so far!!! I also like to see other people's progresses, even though I'm a self motivator but seeing how other people progress helps me further not to mention the challenging each is also fun, looking foward to make new friends~~~

Hi, I just got my Fitbit last month and am looking for friends for motivation and challenges.  I don't know anyone personally who has a Fitbit (I live in a very small, rural town).  Please feel free to add me:
