Please bring the Agenda App to Charge 5. It was a very useful part of the Charge 4 experience.

Agree that this was a really useful feature. Strange to see it removed. I am considering going back to the Charge 4 because of this and the Weather app.

Would also really like an agenda app. It's my top things missing currently. I hate having to open my phone see what time my next meeting is.

 

I use my fitbit as a notifications+watch+date+sleeptracking device and nothing related to fitness

My Fitbit Charge 3 provided me with upcoming Calendar events for the current / next day.....but my new Charge 5 does not seem to have this feature.
The Charge 5 DOES provide notifications/alarms from Calendar on my phone, so they are connected-wouldn't it be possible to provide the Calendar functionality once more on this latest Charge 5 device?

I used the agenda app on my Charge 4 to know I had up coming without having to open the calendar on my phone or computer. Now I have extra work to see when appointments I have

I recently upgraded from a charge 3 to a charge 5. Not having the agenda app makes me miss my charge 3. I don't seem to get my calendar notifications even though I have it set up to do so. Please bring this back!

I literally just bought the charge 5 and am so disappointed to find the agenda app missing. I had looked into everything else I need except this as I forgot. And for $269 in Australia… you’d think that important features like this would follow the charge 4.

I've also created a request for this feature (see TonyT46)

Can’t believe there is no Agenda App.  Why would you not inherit features from previous models?  Other things missing are floors (altimeter gone), DD/MMM for non Americans, weather, decent analogue clock face, ++++.  We should not have to vote for features which one would assume to be inherited from previous models.  Continuous improvement does not include getting rid of useful features to annoy users and convince them to change brands for their next fitness tracker which, judging by the longevity of my previous models, is not too far away.

In the age of smart devices it is obsurd to not have the ability to see upcoming events, get phone notifications, quick reply to SMS messages, and answering phone calls.

 

I will returning my charge 5.

I'd love for this app to be added. One more reason not to be distracted by my phone!

I agree!! I used this feature consistently on my charge 3. Very disappointed to see you removed it. Why take away useful features? I miss my charge 3.

Would like to see this added to charge 5 as well. it was a very useful feature on charge 4. Especially the option to receive notifications.

The Agenda app was very helpful on the Charge 3.  Surprised and disappointed that it's not compatible with Charge 5.  Please make it available ASAP.

I too would like to see the agenda feature on the Fitbit Charge 5.  I have alot of appointments and seeing it on my device is very convenient.

A bit off a joke just switched from charge 3 and now missing the agenda...guess I should have read the reviews but you do expect things getting better & more versatile not less ..

...and an even bigger joke...  After all the requests for this agenda feature to be returned, new firmware released yesterday still does not have this app included? (Nor a decent analogue clock face with a seconds hand - like charge 4)

The agenda feature in previous models is missing on the newest model. This degradation in functionality is a tragedy.
