It is absurd that this feature has been removed. I guess Google/Fitbit expects everyone to use a tablet or projection to view their large library of video content. I honestly just want a rationale for why someone would consider this to be a good deal. Because wtaf?
I have been using, and enjoying using a Fitbit for over seven years. I typically monitor progress through my email updates, but went to view my Dashboard today and found I could not without installing an app. I purposely limit my use of apps as they collect large amounts of personal data beyond the scope of the product. I will stop using Fitbit.
Yes this 100%. The phone app is confusing and buggy and ugly and tiny. It is a nightmare for a senior citizen with a small phone (me). Please bring back the website. How hard would that be? Seriously?
Absolutely essential. My Fitbit is now recording relaxation as sleep. Can't delete from app since it keeps readding the deleted logs. Spending over an hour every night to fix the inaccurate recording is ridiculous. The online dashboard would've been one edit and done. Now it's hope after over 100 tries one sticks.
Not all of us are fluent in phones. It's easier to view information on a PC, whether it's Windows, Chrome, Linux, Apple, etc. Writing with a PC keyboard allows us to edit more easily. A webpage, like you had before the merger with Google, is ideal. Thank you.
This is ridiculous, can you really not see your dashboard on the website?! I use the app all the time but also need the webpage view. This needs to be fixed or I may need to switch to a new device away from fitbit.
I agree with everyone who wants to see a return of the web dashboard. It is discriminatory making us use our phones as the only way to access our dashboard. I have a visual impairment which makes it very difficult for me to use phone apps. Voice commands are not the answer as nobody builds in appropriate functionality for these. Also you still need to be able to see the small screen to set the up in the first place. It is not practical or possible to put many of the accessible software options that can be used on a PC on to your phone. For me to use the dashboard effectively it is necessary for me to have an extra large screen and a keyboard.
People with disabilities are being increasingly excluded from using products becasue we are being forced to use smartphones which a lot of us cannot afford.
Unfortuntately, like many others, after decades of using Fitbit, I will need to find an alternative option as they are making it impossible for me to use in any real way. It is now effectively just a watch that I can just about read on the largest setting I am able to select.
