Longer Challenges eg week, month, 2 hours

There should be a larger variety of challenges that could be long like a month long or short like a couple of hours and there should be rewards for challenges you participate in with friends/family like gift cards for a variety of stores

Can you add more challenges such as calories, water intake, sleep challenge that one would be cool. An exercise challenge and more. Please I'm tired of repeating he same challenges over and over again.

Should be a fairly simple addition?

Would love to have more variety in challenges. Three things in particular:
-- More options for personal challenges
-- Greater variety of challenges (based on measurements other than steps)
-- Cooperative challenges (e.g., team to walk a total of X miles in 7 days)

Your customers are requesting more variety when it comes to challenges and we are getting no responses at all. Why? Are you even working on creating more challenges or is this not a concern?

Has anyone gotten a reply from Fitbit regarding the challenges?

Yes, lots more personal challenges as well. I train solo for endurance trail running alongside a fulltime job. Sometimes the challenges keep me from staying in! 😉

Could we have an active hours challenge with daily or weekly options please?

Although I reach my target step count, I regularly fail with my work week challenge with work colleagues. However, my floors climbed are usually the highest and it would be nice to win something for a change so would love to have the ability to create bespoke challenges!

I would love to be able to create custom challenges for example: couple v couple or team v team, work hours only, or even some kind of competition to see who does the most steps, mileage. I really like the challenges as they really promote me to get in more steps and exercise but I would really like them to expand on the challenges to give more variety

I would love to see the option to have a month challenge added! Or even longer. It would be nice to not have to keep doing weekend and week request over and over.

Whilst the work week hustle is a fantastic idea to keep people motivated and determined to beat each other, it would be great to extend this out to a month with a league table.

For example, we currently have a monthly challenge which we do offline in which the winner of each work week hustle gets 2 points, second gets 1. Then at the end of each month, the one with the most points is the overall winner. Just adds a bit more fun to the game

Further to this why not a month long challenge that can have more than 10 people in it!?!

I think that you should be able to be in any amount of challenges you want not just 5 because when people take forever to sync and it's already ended it still is counting towards my number of challenges I can be in.

Is it possible to create a custom challenge, we are doing the walk for cancer challenge for cancer research where we need to capture steps over a month and would really be useful if we can create a group challenge over a month

A daily stair climb challenge would be awesome!

I love the Fitbit challenges, but I would love to see a 7 day challenge too. As a runner, I love to challenge other runners, but with different training schedules we train on a 7 day week, not five

Could we have a 7 day week challenge? The work week hustle and And the weekend warrior challenges are great but how about a 7 day one too?
Also couldn't the adventures also be a challenge to, to compete with friends to finish the adventure first.

I'm puzzled by the rewards.. Why not everyone in the challamge chip in and by a gift card, the winner gets to keep it. Losers loose.

In my group of friends there are some people I am never going to beat. If money was involved should I not join challenges with them or just accept that one or two people will always win?
Challenges work for me as they are because I try to beat the people I am on a par with.

@tren15 that is why I like the goal day challamge and would like to see a week long goal day challange. 

Everybody has a goal, it might 5K or 35k you hit your goal your a winner you miss and your... Well you get it.

I'm hoping they add a number of active hours challenge for a similar reason.
