YUR virtual watch integration

Any chance Fitbit is going to let the YUR virtual tracker integrate?  Stuck at home, the VR headset is how a LOT of us are getting our exercise now.  It would be great to be able to see and track that in side VR while we're sweating.

 

--In VR, you don't track time well, so it's hard to tell if you've got your heart rate up far enough, long enough.

Hi @ShawnaJob. Thanks for sharing this suggestion about integrating YUR virtual watch with Fitbit. Our web API and smartwatch SDK are open which means that the service you are wanting can actually integrate with Fitbit. We’d encourage you to make this suggestion to the service and direct them to our existing API and SDK and resources such as the web dev API community. You will likely be able to email them via their contact us page or customer support, or they may have their own ideas board like this. Or encourage them to reach out to Fitbit directly. Thanks for your participation in the Feature Suggestion forums, we look forward to making Fitbit more useful for you.

Please include virtual workouts in your syncs. I’ve been training indoors because of winter/pandemic and it’s really frustrating to have to replicate my training info. Thanks!

Hi @LauraJillian, thanks for explaining why you would like to have the option to see virtual walks. This feature suggestion already exists, so I've moved it into a similar request. While we don’t currently have plans to release this feature, we always appreciate the passion and creativity that comes out of this Community. Since we know this idea is important to many of you, we have left voting open to continue tracking interest and will post another update if anything changes. To learn more about how Fitbit decides which suggestions get developed, visit our FAQs.

 

I hope to see you around.
