More clock/watch faces for the Charge 3!

So, the Charge 3 is out and there is a huge let down:

There are only 5 clock/watch faces:charge 3 clock.png

 

 

Come on Fitbit...at least include all the Charge 2 watch faces too. We all loved the Charge 2 watch face with the time, date and the highlighted feature (steps/heart rate etc.)

 

Whats missing:

- Faces with the actual DATE and DAY

- Faces with a DIGITAL SECONDS TIMER

 

Or to say it again, just include the Charge 2 watch faces. Thanks in advance.

Agreed. I would like to be able to SEE the DAY/DATE, not in a microscopic font.

Any update on when we can expect some more watch faces?

Does the Samsung Gear Pro work (sync) with the Samsung fitness app that comes with the phone?

Also does it have a feature similar to the "relax" feature on the Charge 2? The HRV-biofeedback in the "relax" feature is pretty good, of course, if the Fitbit app kept track of the sessions, it would be better.

I love charge HR watch face.

It is similar to charge 2.

It is much better than that of Charge 3.

I vote for updated watch faces too!  It was important to me when deciding on a fitness tracker that it would include a watch function that shows the date AND the DAY of week.  I tried to see the watch faces online before purchasing my fitness tracker to see if there was a face that had both the date and day but couldn’t locate a sample, but I did see the Charge 2 on the shelf too.  The package for the Charge 2 showed a face that had the date and the day showing, so I felt the Charge 3 would at least have the same options at a minimum.  To be honest, if I had known the DAY would be missing, I would have kept looking. Please update the faces to include what others are asking for as well as the day of the week..

To summarize the feedback on additional clock faces:

 

- create faces that align to how users are using the device. Some don’t even want the clock or date to show and want only the fitness stats (steps, floors, etc)

- ensure faces have a font that is friendly to users who have vision problems

- Open up the API allowing users to create and submit their own designs. This is probably a long shot but Samsung does this for their fitness devices.

Add to your requirements list:

- Include all legacy clock faces from Charge 2

Agreed. I couldn't believe it doesn't at least show the date!

Sorry. There is one with the date. but it's an analogue one with no steps (sigh). Come on, there are some great suggestions in here. Don't just have it 'under consideration' - DO SOMETHING!. How many requests will it take to get you off your bottoms?

Returned! In addition to the lack of basic Charge 2 watch faces, the HR tracking of the Charge 3 is inaccurate during a selected exercise. The Charge 3 reported a lower HR in the middle of the workout compared to when I started (yes the strap was tight enough). The higher actual HR was confirmed by three other devices.I suggest everyone return their Charge 3 until Fitbit acts on their customer's complaints / wishes and delivers a device that works.

Yes, please! I've had my Charge 3 for almost a week now, and am really enjoying it (upgraded from Alta). But I've caught myself three times now trying to check my wrist for the date... which isn't displayed on this clock face. And I really don't care for the other clock faces that DO include a date now because they lack EITHER heart rate OR step count - both of which I also like to see at a glance.

 

Please, please - we need a clock face with all four:

• Date

• Time

• Step count

• Heart Rate

The issues I’m having are:

a.  Poor clock faces, why didn’t you use the Charge 2 ones.

b.  Step, date, clock and heat rate is not available and I expected it coming from using Charge 2 

c.  Tracking is up the creek!  I drove about 12 kms didn’t walk very far, then I ended up in ER for most of the in bed, later drove home not walked far.  It registered that I had done 2.244 kms!  Mmmm not good.

d.  It wont pair to my iPhone or iPad in regards to notifications or weather.or all day sync!

c.  I love the lavender band but not happy with the plastic part of band to link into watch face.  I like the size and weight of it.

I’m really thinking about returning this charge three. You had us all with charge 2. Which lasted me exactly 25 months so I did t mind waiting another six months for charge 3. Oh boy what a disappointment and seems as if I’m not the only one. I like the slim look but displays have to be brighter on all aspects. Not just time and we need the day along with date. How difficult is that?

Thank You

I got my Charge 3 yesterday (upgrade from 2) and I am totally disappointed.  The limited faces are not acceptable. At least give us the same faces as the Charge 2 (included date, time, steps and heart rate).  Fix the step count too.  I have not moved from my desk yet I have registered 50 steps in the past 10 minutes

As someone else who just got a Charge 3 after having the Charge 2, I agree that not having any digital clock face with Time, Date, Steps, and Heart Rate is ridiculous. HR Stat is close, but I would much prefer to just have the heart rate numbers without a giant graphic in order to also fit the step count on. Needing to swipe to see that feels like a major step backwards.

Provide at least time, date, steps, and heart rate on the main face.  I want to see as much data without having to scroll through different screens.

I have to agree. I need steps, time, date and DAY!!! . It needs to be clear and easy to read. And I need the two dots between the hour and the minute !  Example  12:30.  I need those two dots separating. I loved the one that you had on the charge 2. Please add the charge 2 watch faces to the charge 3 options. Please please please.!!!!!

Simple solution, return your Charge 3 and repurchase once Fitbit releases the complete Charge 3 software. Revenue is the only leverage, they knew the Charge 3 was not ready for release, and wanted the holiday sales and fix later maybe.

@Joe002. I love that face you created.  It would be perfect if they added that one!!!!!!

I don't care how many steps they take. Wow, I can walk. Do I need a congratulations for being a typical adult human.

 

Gracious creators of fitbit, give me the date, the clock, and my heartrate, please.

 

I just want a watch that can tell my heart rate. Sorry, I don't need a step counter, or whatever else it probably tracks, smh.
