Twice now I've been in the middle of giving a presentation and my Inspire 2 starts buzzing incessantly on my wrist. I try to ignore it so I can finish my presentation but it is so distracting. Afterward I find that the relax app has accidentally activated. I never use it. I would like to uninstall so it doesn't accidentally trigger at inconvenient times.

The breathe function is ridiculous. Started this morning without warning, continuously buzzing on my wrist. I was on an important work call. Unable to turn off, unable to even access the time due to it. 
tried running the programme for 2 minutes and even that didn’t clear it - just started the breathe app again. If I cannot remove this function I’ll remove the tracker. 
Pointless.

i also would like to be able to remove certain apps.

I 'upgraded' from an ALTA, which I loved, but the battery got to the point where it would only last about 30 hours.

I bought an inspire 2 because there was literally nothing else. Almost got a childs version.

 

dont need the apps, dont want the apps. should have the ability to turn them off.

I would like to disable the breathe feature - even if I could just set it to a specific part of the day. So far, it's happened while I'm actively teaching a yoga class and also in the middle of a job interview - super inconvenient and makes no sense. 

 

I've seen the responses from the FitBit team and as a health and wellness practioner...I do not need to be reminded of the importance of breathing or why you put it as a component of the device - just asking to disable or be able to shift when it activates.

This feature is ridiculous.  The last update turned my inspire2 from an ok device into one I want to throw against the wall.  Have 10 years of activity data on fitbit.  In one day of being interrupt by near constant buzzing I am ready to throw that away and buy an applewatch where I can at least turn stupidity like this off….  Take the project manager who thought this was a good idea out and shoot them.
