Support Google Workspace accounts to log in to Fitbit account

[pgaleone]

Right now people like myself that use a Google Workspace (so not something [at] gmail.com) account as their main account, are locked out of Fitbit "login with Google" features - and our accounts can't be migrated.

This is highly misleading: ”Tip: You can not link your Fitbit account to a Google Workspace account. Use a different Google account or create a new one."

Here's what it should say:
”Tip: You can not link your Fitbit account to a Google Workspace email. Use a different Gmail email address or create a new Gmail email address in addition to your existing one to use FitBit.  Note, you will now need to check multiple email accounts.”

This is not like asking you to create an Amazon account associated to ANY email address, and people are pissed off after 25 years of email, who wants to switch email addresses or keep multiple ones suddenly.

Not only that. The biggest issue here is that google assistant does not
work on Android watch 2 if the account on the phone does not match the one
on the watch. And if for any reason you switch accounts (example, you want
to see the feed of your old account) even if you change it back, you have
to set up Google assistant on your watch again. Basically anytime you need
to use it you realize it needs to be setup

Yep same here, I only went workspace because I want to keep my domain name
and email address and my families, so time to ditch fitbit and thinking
about moving my email somewhere else too

Don’t make me move account to google and block me from using my account. My google account is my domain hosted on google but you say it’s a work or school account and can’t be used. Stop being stubborn and add a use anyway button.

Glad the moderator consolidated similar requests. Also happy to see so many people have the same issue with the arbitrary decision by Mordoc the preventer of information technology making the dumb decision to prevent using our existing google hosted accounts. It made me start to lean towards Apple Watch. Lest see if Google can have some common sense here or just annoy and lose customers
