I too would love a weather app.  I had it on Charge 4 and really miss it.

Like others commented I was a daily user of the weather widget on the charge 3 and was very disappointed to see this valuable feature missing from the 5.

 

Please add it back.

 

Thanks

I also use this daily. When I switched to charge 5 I was disappointed to find out the weather option is gone.

Two features that I need and C4 had it.  I need my weather and my spotify!!!  Where are they? Such a disappointment!

I vote to have the weather app on the C5. I had it in my C4 and can’t believe it’s not a feature. The beginning of this thread goes back to Sept 2021. It’s now mid March. What’s up?

Upgraded from Charge 4 (Broken bracelet bracket) to a Charge 5.  Also disappointed the weather app is missing.  I was using it on a daily basis.

Please, add it back.

I just got my Charge 5 and am very disappointed that there is no weather app. Are you kidding? I didn't even think to check because all my previous fitbits have had it. Please add the weather app. It is really unacceptable to not have one in 2022.

Super bummed there's no weather app. I bought the Charge 5 anyway... make your supporters feel heard Fitbit! C'mon!

A weather app should be natural and easy since the weather app exists on charge 4. The app should not require more than going through the existing charge 4 code and adapting + testing it. A clock face is then just a matter of fetching that data and making that data visible on the clock. I am a very experienced IT guy, and I am very sure that this is a relatively easy task. But that also tells me that the lack of weather on charge 5 is most likely a conscious choice, not due to a technical barrier that needs to be overcome. Dear Fitbit, care to explain?

I don't think this works on the charge 5.

I did as suggested and DID find the Charge 5 but still couldn’t find anything to do with Weather

I can’t believe there’s no weather app. It’s helpful to know current conditions w/o having to check phone.

I like to check the weather on Charge 5 Fitbit. It helps me get weather to
my friends on Facebook page. I very disappointed.

I've also raised the same request for exactly the same reasons but so far nothing has happened

Just upgraded from a Charge 4 to a 5. I'm really liking it, but where is the weather app???

I loved being able to see the current temperature and the expected high and low for the day on my Garmin.  I hope this is added to the Charge 5.
