Can’t read my Fitbit in daylight or in room with lights or sunlight

I need to find a way to read my Fitbit during the day. It’s when I need to use it. Not in my bed at night in the dark.  It is useless during the day. Help

Change your clock face via the app. Look for the numbers in bolder typeface

I have it on step data. Bold and large time. It’s still not readable in daylight. If I put my settings on auto for screen brightness I can’t see my screen period. This is a real disappointment as this watch was bought in December as my Christmas gift. My charge 2 broke after Less than two years. For the money the watch costs I expected to be able to read the face in the daylight

I don't want that readout; I have it set on the readout I like, but I can't see it. It's not about font size; it's not bright enough to see in normal outside daylight.

Sorry to hear. Mine eventually gave up and it was my second fit bit in three years. Customer service offered small discount if I bought a new one 🙄. It was defective. I had no real support. Told a year ago they were aware of this issue and to wait for upgrades to fix. I switched to garmin. My mother had same experience with customer support with brand new Fitbit. Sent one with defective charger. Lack of real customer service in supporting her she too will be switching. Never again FITBIT for our family. 6 bought on total over last 5 years. We will go with garmin thanks

Me too. Thinking of changing to Garmin if I can find one that I can swim in AND read in daylight
