Maintain Fitbit web dashboard going forward

[KBenjamin]

As an older user, my eyesight and hand eye coordination are poor. So, I prefer the website dashboard on my PC. That dashboard keeps directing us to the mobile app. Please assure you will continue maintaining both as I cannot rely solely on the mobile app. Please consider all of your customers when providing tools. Many thanks!

My favorite Fitbit feature has been tracking cumulative mileage and receiving award badges.  I proudly shared each badge with friends.   That is now gone. I was just notified on my cellphone that I reached the pole-to-pole badge, but there's no way to share that information.  That sucks. 

I really have no reason to stick with Fitbit.  Google seems to trying to make their job easier or maybe draw Fitbit customers away from their laptops and Windows.  That makes me angry. 

Google - you don't understand Fitbit customers.

+1 on this

These two feature requests are duplicates. Could we please merge the threads and combine the votes? This will help strengthen the case for influencing the product roadmap. @LizzyFitbit

It would be nice to have a Fitbit dashboard app for PC. I'm a senior and it is hard to read the dashboard on my phone. Moderator edit: Clarified subject and updated label... View more

One of the things that I have liked most about Fitbit is working for my next badge.  At one time, I could visit the Fitbit website and view my cumulative steps and the highest badge I had achieved.  What happened to this?  I no longer see this information.   

I think this is one feature that keeps Fitbit users from switching to Apple Watch.  If you switch, you lose your miles.  I would suggest that Google make this more readily available and prominent.

SunriseRun407 I would be glad to see duplicate threads combined, to coalesce support. I am not sure how to do this, but I have posted my comment on each thread.

[lizhuffstuff]

i have no idea how to do this, but I would love to think there are enough
comments to get someone at Google Fitbit to listen, and act. My original
comment that resulted in this thread has generated many many similar
comments

I am in favor of combining the two threads: "Maintain Fitbit web dashboard
going forward" and "Bring back the Fitbit Web Dashboard". Who has the
capability to combine threads - the moderator or a user? As a user, I do
not know how to combine threads.

I do not have compromised vision, but I really need the desktop too.  In addition, I would greatly appreciate if we could use the Desktop/website for streaming premium content on our computers.  I do not want to watch the workout videos that come with premium on a phone.  I should be able to access all the same features on the desktop.  Just use an API.  I want to use the food tracking tool in a desktop web application, as we did before, where I could save certain meals.

I agree! Fitbit are you hearing this......

[HollyP117]

As an elder user, I concur entirely with the users who want the Fitbit dashboard to be returned for personal computer use. I need the ability to download my health data to an Excel spreadsheet from a large screen. I would use this data regularly to communicate with my health care providers.

Try

https://dashboard.exercise.quest/

Click setting & enable

Then click connect to fibit at the bottom

Not everything but better than they left us with

Thanks this works for me!

I've been using this for quite awhile. Problem is the only thing you can
enter is water & food.

100%. Please bring this back. I just returned as a FitBit user after years away. Data is the reason I want this. It is helpful for accessibility. Also, the less time in on my phone, the more time I have for activity. With the desktop version I can get in and get out. So much more engaging. 

I’ve just fiddled around for a half hour getting my account going and verified so I can comment. I should be sleeping.

I’m invested.
