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.

I asked chat if there was a way to revert back to old sleep display. There is not. Sad. I don't think I'll renew my premium and I'll start looking at other trackers.

I hear you!! Yes, I’ve been tracking my sleep for years as well. Also, when I walk, which, I had a difficult time finding it on the app. I finally did, but right now, since I can’t walk everyday, I still have have to search for it!


Yesterday is history.
Tomorrow is a mystery!
Today is a gift!
That’s why we call it the present!
Enjoy your gift of today!
Blessings!

Oh wow, my benchmarks have suddenly reappeared.

I thought they were fobbing me off when they told me it was a known bug and
they would be back in a few days.

It might be because I deleted the app to follow the instructions posted
about getting the old stuff back but it didn't work for me. So, I've just
reinstalled the app and I have benchmarks.

Still dont look as good as the old stuff but its a start.

It is so hard to read and such a downgrade. It makes zero sense that they chose this and thought it was a better option. I am looking at other brands as I don't want to keep giving them my money if they won't listen to the complaints and return the old display for sleep.

Return the entire old app. This update is awful! The sleep zones the exercise zones the lack of customisation and the quadruple number of clicks and rabbit holes you have to go down to find anything. You’d should  warn people that the upgrade will be hugely different and show photos of what they’ll be getting or make it possible to revert to the old app! I’ve been a Fitbit user for over 5 years but this is enough to make me switch. Even finding the exercise and mindfulness options is a rabbit Warren. Please put it back! This “upgrade” is a dreadful user experience and a down grade. And stop trying to Googleafy everything! It’s awful and creepy!

Bring back the previous sleep pattern chart! The new one is absolutely useless and awful. It's difficult to read. It's far too busy and messy. Generally, it's crap! I hate it - along with heaps of other Fitbit users. Why don't you listen to the users of the app??? We're the ones that want to have easy to read and understand information. You developers seem to think that this is progress - well, in this case you're wrong! Why did you change the sleep chart?? It didn't need changing. Ever since Google has taken over, Fitbit has lost it's appeal. Google will take over everything soon!!!! I am considering giving up with Fitbit and buying another smart watch. Jeez, Fitbit, just LISTEN to the users!! Return the old sleep chart AS SOON AS POSSIBLE!!!!!  Enough is enough. Stop "fixing" something that isn't broken!!

@DeeElKa . I, along with thousands of people, agree with you.

@JackieJay . Unfortunately, there is no guarantee that our complaints will help at all. We can only hope, but I'm not holding my breath.

The new sleep summary info on the app is horrendous. It's jarring and ugly compared to the previous version. Plus, where is the little smiling moon?! Bring back the old version and the moon!

The new way of presenting the sleep data chart isn't even worth looking at. It is impossible to read the differences in cycles, you can't toggle between sleep stages anymore, nor are you able to toggle to what time an event happened.
Please return the sleep data report to what it used to look like or come up with a more reader friendly presentation

Hello, I already communicated on this via chat and posted on the community about this issue. However, because I valued Fitbit I will try a last communication on this before moving products. The new sleep update has very poor usability. Why change something that was working well beats me completely. Please revert back to the previous version.

Excellent summary. I am considering ditching the Fitbit.

White background is disturbing. Hard to focus, follow and read. Colors are awful on the Sleep app. Please get advice from a design advisor. Maybe an advisor on color at Benjamin Moore could help you. 
In the Sleep app, the data are all the same for each stage. There are no Benchmark indicators as in the old version, and where is the 30 day Average? These two categories have the same data. Am I missing something? 
I’m already looking and considering alternatives.

Since the update, I have not been able to get the outside temperature in Fahrenheit.  Celsius is useless to me and even though it F is checked off in settings, my device is giving me the temperature in C.

I have been using Fitbit trackers for years and have had several. Now that nosy Google has taken over, I will be putting my beloved Versa 3 in the drawer and buying a Garmin as soon as I can. Google has enough of my information without knowing where I am at all times and my exercise and sleep routines.

Thanks for ruining a great thing!

Thank you! Yes that happened to me the auto update brought back the horrible new one I was able to fix it but I don't know how to turn off the auto update in Google Play Store I've tried Googling for instructions but I have not been successful. Any advice would be appreciated. Thank you

Can somebody who knows tell us how to turn off auto updates in the Google Play Store on an Android phone? Otherwise it's going to fail again. Thank you !

The new sleep graph is visually unpleasant, difficult to read, not friendly to people with any type of visual difficulties, and less informative. Honestly, I am currently researching other trackers besides Fitbit. I have had one for the past 4 years, and I actually had one back in the day when it was a little clip that you put on your clothing. However, every change is making it less user friendly and I see no reason to spend this much money on something that is this unusable.

Please.  I hate this new version.  I like to be able to edit my sleep,  because for whatever reason, my sleep is not always recorded.  I really, really, really hate this new version.  Like thinking of switching to a an Apple watch hate it.

Okay, moderator LizzyFitbit, you said "We rely on feedback like yours to help us develop products and features that we know our community wants to see. If this product feedback receives votes from other customers and gains popularity, it will be shared internally with various teams at Fitbit."  My question to you is are you actually sharing any of this with someone who can do something about it?

Instead of listening to its customers or allowing some of us to post fixes or get-arounds to the horrendous sleep summary, FitBit is doubling down. Nothing like alienating your customer base. Yeah FitBit. Keep poking that bear and see what that gets you.
