Friends Daily/Weekly Step Count on App and graph

[Jaegs]

I think a welcomed addition to the friends profile across all apps would be the ability to see a friend's daily step count.  This would be useful when "chasing" a friend down.  

Other user data such as, distance, active minutes, pictures and other information that person has set to share with friends would be nice as well.

Idealy the user would be able to slide through previous days like you can on your personal dashboard view

I agree. Please replace the 7 day step with the daily step. I have been asking for this for a long time. What is the hold-up? I mean really…..It can’t be that hard and it makes a lot more sense.

3 years and still waiting. 😞

Yes, and no one from Fitbit bothers to acknowledge this or respond.

I don't really understand how this was posted 4 years ago and nothing has happened. Other apps / brands similar to Fitbit have this ability. You have the data and you know it is a feature that people want... what's the hold up? I bought my mom a fitbit tracker recently so that we could compete and see each other's daily steps (we previously both had Up Jawbone bands and we could see this info... YEARS ago). 

Also- How does it make sense to "taunt" a friend when you can't even see their steps? Or "cheer" for a friend. Those are the only options I see when I click on a friends page. I can't even see what they are doing... so those options are pointless.

4 years, 200 posts, Fitbit obviously doesn't care. Time to take my and my families fitness tracker business elsewhere. 

[Cherielyne]

I don’t even think they look at any of this because a lot of people have been asking for this with no response This is sad that the company does not care what customers are saying. Once they have their money they are done…or so it seems.

I use Bitstats and you can view your friends on the leaderboards and there is numerous different filters like days, weeks, years, streaks etc.

Obviously they need to be Bitstats members too though.

Might help some of you out?

I agree completely, and would also add a request to be able to share/see daily sleep stats.

We all feel this frustration yet not one response from Fitbit. People keep buying so I guess it doesn't matter to them ?

I am shocked that fitbit doesn't show friends daily steps in the app.  That is one reason I bought it - to keep motivated and compete against friends. Weekly running totals just doesn't do the same thing.  Disappointing.

I vote YES to see friends' current step count.

I totally agree!  If I could see my friends steps and activity daily it would motivate me more to pick up and do more if I saw they were ahead.  To be honest the friend thing is nice, but a waste if you can't see their daily activity.   

[Cherielyne]

I totally agree, I just wish the people at fitbit would pay attention. 😞

[Almot]

 It needst to be done ASAP. The whole purpose of the activity tracker is to be able compete with your friends. I came to FitBit from Jawbone. With Jawbone app I was able to see my friends daily stats including steps, workouts and even their sleep. Why can't FitBit do the same?

[jesster123]

YES YES YES!!! Totally agree. My sister, mom, stepmom and I just switched from UP trackers ... because of nonexistent customer support. Looks like we will be switching again to apple watches. So sad Fitbit can't listen to its users and respond. These requests have been coming in since 2014!!!!!!!!!

[Motivated7]

Yep - we started doing the daily challenge or weekday challenge so we could see each other's steps at least.

Yes please! My sister and brother and I just started. But can only see a week total. We really want to work by day. Love this idea. I hope it can happen!

[Cherielyne]

Me too!

[Steph92673]

I just decided to waste 20 min in a chat session to see if they would remotely but this update in the app, but hey look at it on the web.  We are an App world these days it should work in the app.  But yea they aren't going to make the update.  They are only going to work on things they want.  more adventures and guidance.  I am going to go back to Jawbone.  The band was less expensive and the app was way better.  Good luck everyone.  I hope somewhere along the way they add this but I just can't wait to find out.

So true.

You can. Just invite them to the Daily Showdown daily & you can see each
others steps.. ☺

[SunsetRunner]

Thank you Hello051617.  Daily showdown...daily. I did not know about that. Still learning. Will give that a try. 

Have a fabulous stepping day. 🙂

[Motivated7]

We do the workweek challenge or whatever the weekly is called and that has been fun and we keep track of each other's steps it's in the challenges

I agree. I want this feature. Seems like it would be so easy to implement...
