Bring back the old sleep summary page

When I had my Charge 5 and the first few weeks of having my Charge 6 the app would give me a sleep summary page with, Sleep Stages, Time in each stage, Oxygen levels and Bedtime and wakeup all on a handy page. Since a recent update I now seem to get a much more basic three tiles and I have to open each one and look through for all the information.

The sleep graph is incredibly hard to use

• Scale on bottom is unclear

• Scale doesn’t have hour dividers

• You can’t see the timings of little sleep sections, if there is for example some time awake it’s hard to click on as the highlight with the time just lands on Light Sleep next to it

• Doesn’t have the nice colours anymore 

• The time totals on the left get in the way of the graph lines

Please allow us to switch back

Please listen to users and either change the sleep data back to an easier to read and more informative style, or give us the option to change back. This new data graphic is appalling. Impossible to read, lacks key information, is ugly, not user friendly and basically just awful. I'm not even sure what the rationale was for the changes...how can this version be better? 

I hate it.

Someone posted that, but I am not sure if that is true.

Please revise the Sleep App and return it to prior to latest  update!!!

At least return the percentages of the different types of sleep in total.

I really dislike the new graph!!

It's very important to me.

Thanks,

I'd like to join the chorus of complaint about the new sleep display but take it one further and report a bug.  I have used the system for a few years and loved it.  I have a Versa 2 and an Oppo Android phone.  When I try and view my sleep against benchmark, the bars for benchmark range don't display.  So it's actually useless.

My wife's system has an equally ugly display but at least it works and I can see what it's supposed to look like.

So I'm wondering.  What platform is everybody using here?  I mean, yes, the interface is not as good, but I'm not getting any inaccuracies when I look at my sleep stats.  The Awake, REM, Light, and Deep are all accurate on my phone, They are at least in line with what I've been getting for years.  The only thing not working is the benchmark view on mine, I don't see the overlay, but I do see the percentages. .  It does work on my wife's.  She has a Pixel 7a and I have a Pixel 6 Pro.  I have a Versa 4 and she has a Lux.  

Now, I don't have a complicated sleep pattern, that is I don't get up much, usually once or twice for about 15 to 30 minutes.  I look at the clock when that happens so I  know the app is accurate for that.  Both our phones are fully patched.  Anybody on this thread PIxel users?  Has anybody seen the Garmin app on Android?

I agree. I miss the readability of the previous version of the graph (the colors and lack of clutter). I also miss being able to compare the previous days' graphs on the same page.

At least give us the choice of the old or the new - thank you!

New app display is TERRIBLE!! A 100% downgrade. Very disappointing as well as frustrating. I loved Fitbit up to now, but now I am considering switching products.

I couldn't agree more with this! They keep doing this with each menu, one by one... it is very frustrating. They can do all the new stuff no problem, but if they could just add a another tab where you can scroll through all you previous data like it was in the old app that would be great. I don't feel like that's too much to ask.

If Google is purposely killing/ruining Fitbit’s app, why would anyone trust
them enough to invest in another Google tracker and fitness app? That is
exactly why after 8 years of Fitbit usage, I am now wearing a Garmin Lily
2.

I'd like to add my voice to the pile. I've been a Fitbit user for awhile and the sleep page is the first thing I check every day. This new update somehow makes me feel less excited about my sleep stats. I miss the old view.

This latest updates is one of the worst app updates of any app update I’ve ever had. Please bring back the old UI. If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.

I'm also requesting a move back to the old Fitbit sleep style reading. I find it confusing and very difficult to hold my finger over the lines without my finger obstructing the view. It's difficult to study the data without things moving all over the place. I really liked being able to turn my phone to landscape view to get a larger image. I struggle to differentiate between the colors which somehow seem to be out of order. I hope you will go back to the previous version. New isn't always good.

The new sleep stages graph is much less useful than the old version—please change it back! I used it daily since I have sleep and related health problems. The new version isn’t helpful to me, and I am now one of the long-term Fitbit users considering another brand. Very disappointed!

I overwhelmingly agree with the sentiment across the comments here. I would wholeheartedly love if the sleep interface in the app could change/revert back to what it previously looked like or something close to that. I’ve been a Fitbit user for almost 10 years and the main reason I wear it daily is for the sleep analysis but the new update to the sleep interface makes it more difficult to see all the stats. I haven’t been wearing my Fitbit the last few days and am hoping it will change back. I would truly appreciate it.

Please fitbit team!

My whole family were happy users of fitbit, but with this last design change of the app we are all considering going to a competitor. The app and data analysis is now unusable. We come from different generations but none of us can understand this. Why change it to something so unusable. It was great before. Still hoping it's going back to the previous design. I'm not sure how long we all can stick to this new design before we decide to leave fitbit after so many years.

Sad that monopolies like Google can bully customers into submission at a flick of a switch ... I am so disillusioned but can't afford to buy a new brand. I invested in Fitbit brand which has been killed off by monopoly tech 😢

After years of using Fitbit and going through several different devices, this update has confirmed that I will be switching to another smart watch company. It no longer feels like a good quality product and it feels like a push towards purchasing a premium service that I also do not feel offers value for money.

Couple of things.  My husband has a google pixel watch and premium Fitbit app. He uses the same app and about a week after I got the “downgraded app” so did he. So having a google phone or premium doesn’t help. If you haven’t gotten it yet you will or you are lucky that maybe the update didn’t work.  I doubt they are listening.  They have such a large market share we would need 10s of thousands of votes for them to pay attention. The moderator is supposed to be consolidating posts according to the FAQ but doesn’t seem to be. There are a ton of these same posts in the heath and wellness section. I’ve been voting on as many as I can but they shut you down and call it a “voting storm”. Anyway, guess I’ll be moving on and avoiding as many things Google as possible.  They obviously aren’t interested in our opinion.

Totally agree with you!! I noticed there wasn’t an option to vote for you so I just replied. I’ve been voting every where! I posted on X and on Facebook. I’ve been with Fitbit for over 10 years and I am premium and the old sleep graph disappeared and the horrendous one appeared out of the blue about 5 days ago. I don’t know what else to do in order for Fitbit to acknowledge our immense disappointment. I’ll be switching to Apple Watch, there are a few refurbished ones in Amazon which I’m considering.

dissatisfied with the change after the update. The overview for sleeping is not an improvement. I liked the previous one much better, as apparently everyone does. And what I also find very disappointing is the change under the heart rate. those are the minutes in heart rate zone. I could see that every day. Then I could see exactly when my heart rate was at its peak. I used this for my health. So if this will not change, I will probably look for another tracker and watch. This is very disappointing. Fortunately, I didn't take out the Fitbit Premium package after all.

Why are there no comments from Fitbit in response to all of these complaints!
