Challenge Awards

Would fitbit consider giving first, second, and third place winner awards out for challenges? It would be more motivating and rewarding to more people, stimulating more interaction among players. I would be more encouraged to know I had a better chance to win a trophy. Sometimes one person is so far ahead of all others that you give up. But second and third place prizes would inspire more competition and gratification.

Thank you for submitting this idea @pamelajoy33!  I was just thinking the same thing and was about to post this idea myself when I came across your suggestion.  This would definitely be beneficial for others such as receiving a second place Silver Trophy and Third place Bronze Trophy for example.  I agree with you 100% on your last line and was going to say something similar: "But second and third place prizes would inspire more competition and gratification."  Hopefully there would be more Votes on this so that it can happen in the very near future and put into fruition by the Developers. Smiley Wink

This suggestion is tagged as ‘released’, does that mean it’s closed because it’s available?  Because I don’t have this in my IOS app.

I would really like to see a 2nd Place trophy if you are near the 1st Place at the very least.  Sometimes you really challenge yourself to get to first place, and I find that coming up empty-handed reduces your motivation to try the next time.  Knowing you might at least get awarded 2nd place would help participants stay motivated.

 

I would also like to see challenges based on other goals than just steps.

 

Thank you!

I only want to track my daily carbohydrate consumption, but all I seem to be able to log are calories. Is there a way to change this in the app?
