We need a way to search for exercise and mindfulness sessions . Searching for key terms like "walking" or "stress" would help us find relevant sessions faster.

Hi @Nschwedl, thanks for taking the time to share this suggestion about having the option to search a workout by activity or trainer on Fitbit Premium. I've moved it into a similar request. You can learn more about how Fitbit decides what suggestions get released in our FAQs. Click on the thumbs-up to show your support.
Thank you again for your participation in the Feature Suggestions Forums.
I've seen many suggestions for this. Developers, give the customers basic features they're asking for! Do you enjoy doom scrolling for a single 5 minute video you thought was interesting but forgot to add to favorites? Is this supposed to be a cute way of forcing users to browse? I can search for things in nearly every app I use. Fix this PLEASE!

This is an excellent suggestion. Please listen to your customers and pay attention to the well-loved features on so many other apps. Searching and filtering results is a must.
Well ! I see a lot of People would appreciate a search engine to find training sessions. I just subscribe to premium mainly for the training feature. Scrolling to training sessions while having my coffee this morning, I found one I really wanted to try. I suited up for training, open my app, and eventhough I scrolled the entire library, never found it. I was surprise not to find any searching tool. I'm a stepper and have no means to search for aerobic step. I will probably cancel.
I can't belive that this really simple and obvious request is being ignored for what looks to be 2 years. Rather than moving the requests about the community forum is there anyway we can get an indication from fitbit on if they will do this. I've just subscribed and starting to regret my decision as it should be simple to be able to sort the library into activities
Definitely needs a search function.. very discouraging to spend more time looking for a workout than actually doing one!! Or at least sort the videos by type.. treadmill, dining, indoor bike, yoga etc. Would be very helpful thank you!
I can't believe this isn't a feature already and we are now in 2023!
It's baffling that there's no search bar, or even the ability to click on a trainer (e.g. Les Mills) to see all their workouts and find the one you want. Getting around the premium features is a pain.
When my Inspire HR breaks I think I'm going to move on over to a different brand who offer better services along with the tech if this isn't sorted soon.
I also use this daily. I'm currently on a premium trial subscription, and I love a lot of the workouts but I have to favorite them to be able to find them again. I'd love to be able to search for all "Les Mills combat" as an example and have them all in one place.
As many have said above, it's so hard to find specific instructors. When trying to use limited time to find a workout, it's not a great experience to have to spend so much of it scrolling to discover new workouts from the folks I enjoy.
Totally agree with the person who said "I spend more time looking for a workout than doing one" and the one who pointed out how unbelievable it is not to have search when this app is owned by Google!
Most of the workouts and meditations are great, and it's wonderful that there are so many. It's just so difficult to find anything, even in my Favorites, when I have to keep endlessly scrolling.
The trainers in the videos tell us to look for them specifically, which is almost impossible without a search option.
Your recent category sections help a little, but it would make my limited workout time more efficient if there were tabs for the exercise type as well as target body area. Under "workouts with weights" I'd like to see break-outs like kettleball, elastic band, dumb bell. Other descriptors that would help for us older or less athletic users would be "joint-friendly" because even some of the "low-impact" are rough on my knees.
Hi @Frejahs, thanks for taking the time to share this suggestion about having a search option to look for your workouts or mindfulness sessions on the Fitbit app with us. This idea was already requested in the Feature Suggestion board, so I’ve moved your post here. Please support this idea by adding your vote, this helps our developers to keep tracking its popularity and demand over time.
It’s so frustrating trying to find a workout. This morning I wanted to search for “mobility.” Other times I’m looking for morning or beginner. There are so many great workouts! It’s a shame that they cannot be searched or filtered.
Hi, I completed my profile just so I could add to the chorus of voices asking for this feature for going on two years, apparently.
The ability to search would be useful not just for the workouts but also the mindfulness routines. Additionally, if I don't like a workout or mindfulness session, I'd like to give it a thumbs down so it vanishes from my feed, and to allow Fitbit to suggest others I might like.
This could very well be what decides me on renewing my Premium membership, since there are so many alternatives out there. I don't use any of the community features.
Yes, favouriting workouts works ok. But we’re paying for premium service, can we please get a search bar to search key words when trying to find a new workout? Your suggestions on the top are ok but vague, I’d like to do more specific searches and not have to scroll through a bunch of workouts. This is time I’d rather spend on the actual workout.
