Show exercise duration in HH:MM:SS on Fitbit app

[DavidNS]

Logged a run from the Charge 6, Web dashboard shows Duration as 25:15. App shows the duration as 25! On the previous app, I was able to see the run duration in hours, minutes and seconds. Having the seconds missing makes the app view of the data much less useful - bring back the seconds please.

I gave in and just exported all of my data to Strava. Not sure why I hadn’t been doing this previously. You see all of the expected analytics: mile splits, heart rate, GPS, elevation, etc. I found these instructions useful https://support.strava.com/hc/en-us/articles/216918087-Fitbit-and-Strava even if you can only upload 15 files, it’s good enough.

Bring this feature back! Can't wrap my head around why is was ever removed, i dont want my runs rounded to the nearest minute. @LizzyFitbit what is the update on this feedback? 

[SlowAF]

@LizzyFitbit any update on this issue? 

I would love to be able to use my fitbit on runs again, but I don't see the point in wearing it if it can't give me an accurate time for my runs. (Tracking progress on my run times is the number one reason I use a fitbit at all.)

[DavidNS]

This has now been addressed for me and I can see seconds for all my activities when I go intonthe details.

I am not sure on how the update is being rolled out across regions, but if you are in the UK, you should now have this.

I can't take fitbit seriously anymore. 

The app and the web show different data, its not consistent and the relevance for fitness is disappearing into the rear view mirror.

I think it should be classified more in the health rather than fitness arena... which is a shame, because the metrics are there, they are just not consistently accessible on the watch / app / web. I appreciate that the watch screen is limited, and so have no real issues there.... but the app and the web discrepancies are crazy.

For example, my wife has an inspire2, and she can see a heart rate graph on the app.... however I have an inspire 3 (more advanced you may think) but yet the app doesn't show the graph BUT the web does........ crazy.

Does anyone who develops this stuff actually use the device?

Hey Everyone,

My app updated last week (I am in NZ) and is now showing the correct duration for running and walking activities. I am on version 4.15 (11048703) on android so this looks like they are starting to get this fixed.

[grtruck]

It's so depressing. I didn't think it could get any worse, even, possibly better with the news of the android app getting fixed. But I go for a run on a route I've done periodically for years....and not only is the milage wrong.. it records the thing as a RUN and a WALK at the same time. However, one rounds up, (run - 28 mins), and one rounds down, (walk 27 mins). The time I captured as a screen grab. It was 27mins 20 seconds. I figured I'll go to the Fitbit dashboard to see the seconds as it still records there...and even worse! It doesn't even record that correctly! It's shown as 28 mins and 9 seconds! So, there we have it - the Fitbit that USED to work until the new 'app' - now records the same run incorrectly 4 times! (on time and distance). It's laughable. Support - when raised cannot give me any ETA for this fix.....
