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
Try myfitnesspal. It will sync with Fitbit, and I know there are several more. I like this program as you can pull in recipes by URLs and it will match all the ingredients. If not, you can edit them any way you like and you will get the nutritional information from it.
Please bring back the desktop dashboard. All my favorite apps are moving to phone-only use, and it's incredibly inconvenient. I've been a loyal Fitbit user since the days of the clip-on device, but I’m seriously considering switching to another brand unless meaningful improvements are made. Since Google took over, every so-called 'enhancement' has felt like a setback.
That's right - unfortunately I haven't found a worthy alternative, being that comfortable and recording stairs (height). Fitbit One still works, but I have no opportunity to record my data and to synchronize-
I agree. Google, while being smart to cater to people with watches has abandoned people who helped Fitbit at the beginning. And they don't want me anyway because I'm 82. I've taken my Fitbit One and keep track to my nearly 100 million steps on a spreadsheet. My weight's still down, and my Fitbit o+One is still performing.
The pc app was there when Google bought Fitbit. They didn't need to spend on development just needed to maintain the app. It was the reason I bought 3 different Versa's. I cannot see well enough to use my Google Pixel 7 for my dashboard. When it is time to purchase my next watch and phone there will be no reason to stay brand loyal.
I am getting the weekly stats via Email... Even in there they are pointing to the Web Dashboard.
Everything is managed very unproffessional and all this is only happening, to get the Fitbit folks move to google's smart watches. I don't like the design and look of it, like most people.
You should produce for the people, not for a designer!!!
myfitnesspal. It does everything. I think even better than Fitbit's dashboard. Like anything, you have to get used to it, but it's really user friendly and does a lot. Fitbit smart watches are syncable.
It is more than nice. It is the fair and right thing to do. It's our data. The android mobile application is not suitable for analyzing your data. We should also be able to export it. Furthermore, it's an accessibility issue for some people who have sight impairment. C'mon Google/Fitbit!!!
I am definitely buying a new tracker. I have been using Fitbit since 2014, and as of today, I will be buying a non-fitbit product due to the fact that the dashboard is gone, I can NEVER get my fitbit to synch, I have lost about 5000 steps in the past two days due to this syncing issue. Who has time to spend on all of this?? NOT ME. This is why we buy trackers, to handle it for us, not to fight with them. BAD CHANGES, GOOGLE!!
