Bring back the Fitbit Web Dashboard

It would be nice to have a Fitbit dashboard app for PC. I'm a senior and it is hard to read the dashboard on my phone.

Thank you Kevin, but that's the first thing I tried for days (or possibly longer) on end and it just hasn't wanted to play ball with me... it was good for the 2 hours that it worked though lol

Stepping Up

I commented on this many moons ago, but I have more information.

I had a conversation (chat) with a Fitbit representative and she said they have no plans to reinstate the dashboard. However, she did say:

"We're constantly striving to improve Google and Fitbit products and services, and we appreciate all of the input we receive from our customers. The best place to make your voice heard is the Product Feedback board on our community (community.fitbit.com/t5/Product-Feedback/idb-p/features).
 
If a similar suggestion has already been made by another member of the community, you can vote for their suggestion and add your comments."  

 

And.....

"There's a short survey coming up. Fitbit would appreciate your feedback about your experience today. Thanks for contacting Fitbit. Have a great day.
 
Should you need more information please visit our Fitbit Help Center link: https://support.google.com/fitbit?sjid=781889045245583871-NA#topic=14236398
 
Thanks for contacting Fitbit chat support! Let us know how we did via this brief survey: https://support.google.com/fitbit/contact/survey_transactional_short_5pt?ctx=chat&caseid=ABp5YsQzmSQ...

Maybe this will help. In the meantime, I am going to speak out more.

Thanks!!

I'm not a senior, but if I'm going to be studying and evaluating my fitibit data I would prefer to do so on a larger screen.

Here is a list of some of the advantages of having the web UI:
- Better overall UI experience.  The convenience of viewing it in a web tab and being able to switch between it and other applications cannot be under estimated. 
- Bigger graphs, easier to digest, 
- More ergonomic -- with a laptop you can adjust the screen to a comfortable height if you will be viewing it for a long time.  Not so for a phone!
- controllable font size
- potential ability to print reports
- export data directly to your laptop or excel/google sheets
- ability to print reports
- ability access your data anywhere
- Facilities more UI options

Used it for years.  Printouts quite helpful at doctor visits to evidence physical condition.  Now, pouf.

It was before Fitbit was acquired by Google.
