Yeah, I don't need participation awards to know how I'm doing against my personal goals, for now I'll just keep deleting them, Id very much like to be able to turn them off.

I fully agree; an option to disable all badges should be added.

Yes, I just want a fitness tracker not a social media app.

Please allow these distractions to be removed.

They create a lack of mindfulness.

 

Something you promote! 😳

i'm not a child, i don't need badges ... that constant vibration actually makes me worry something is wrong

Agreed! Such a needless, childish distraction. Let me turn them off!

It's not so much the badges that annoy me as it is the advertising...why are there trademarked characters like Minions appearing in the badge? I pay money for the product, I don't want this in my face and wasting my attention.

Just returned to fitbit. This minion badges are frankly demotivating.  Please make it optional, children might enjoy them, I do not.
