Allow us to move or delete Cardio Load prompt

[BonBon7]

There is a new Activity called Cardio Load on my home page and I cannot move or delete it. I don't care about it. I want to see my Steps on the top of the list and now I can't see them because of this new Activity and the size of my iPhone mini. This is ridiculous.

I know, right? 

I've noticed that many people in the Community Forum have been complaining about the cardio nag screens that continually pop up despite deleting all cardio data on a regular basis. 

If anyone at Google happens to read the Community Forum comments, NO ONE wants the nag notices since it was added last year, and EVERYONE hates it. Why does Google insist on keeping a feature that NO ONE WANTS?? At the least, it should be an option to opt out. Seriously.

Hi @LizzyFitbit, is there any update on this? 

Just today the app told me I am at risk of overtraining, I am on target, and am at risk of undertraining, all within the space of a hour or so. This feature is not helpful, or worse, could actively do people harm if they try to stick with what it suggests. I would suggest doing away with it completely, but at a minimum offering users the ability to switch it off. 

I am a long time FitBit user and I have a lot of love for the product, but with the direction the app has been headed in recent years I don't see myself sticking around for much longer, it's become progressively more frustrating to use. This Cardio Load box might be straw that breaks the camel's back for a lot of us. 

Thank you for passing this request to the FitBit team. Cheers!

Agreed!  Wrong notifications are much worse than no notifications at all.

Do it right, or take that option off completely!

Yesterday I had shingles vaccination. I was advised by the nurse to take it easy today especially if I had a reaction to it. I did have a reaction not a bad one but enough to cause joint pain and flu symptoms. 

Fitbit has decided that my readiness is high and I need to step up to the mark. My readiness does not feel high and I'm going to listen to a health professional and not a poorly implemented algorithm. 

The amount of time the request to disable these shaming popups has been "under consideration" is ridiculous for what is a trivial change. I note that Fitbit labs are talking about new features. How about they fix the existing issues first?

It appears the decision makers aren't making the resources available to address this issue. Maybe a motivational message would help: "You are at risk of losing Fitbit Premium subscribers due to a failure to remove cardio load messages." My Fitbit is a few years old and I will need to replace it soon. If the cardio load messages continue to appear, my new fitness tracker won't be a Fitbit.

I'm not sure Google cares, and that's the problem.
