Yay! Bubbles

May seem silly, but I miss the "Yay!" bubble that floats out of the category when I've met my target.  There was something encouraging about those.

Me too!! I really loved that - it was so much fun and it made me feel acknowledged in a way that the star symbol does not.  Why take away something like that? Every little extra bit of motivation helps!  Please bring it back, Fitbit Overlords!

Me too. The happy face cheering me is an extra incentive.

I agree.  And motivation is what sets fitbit apart from other trackers.  Take that away and you lose your distinction in my mind.

I know it sounds silly, but I really, really, miss the little cheering happy face. Maybe someday it will return....

I miss that too!  Somewhat silly, but rewarding in a positive motivational way!

I agree. Big happy faces that said "Yay" were very motivating. My goal was always to have 5 happy faces each day and I would go to the site each evening jusst to see them, sometimes more than once. A little momentary star just does not feel the same. I want them back.

Those bubbles were very cool @hdunker. I'll be happy to send your request to our development team so they can consider adding them again. 

 

Any other ideas you might have, feel free to share or vote for them, if it’s already suggested in the Feature Request Forum. Thanks!

 and   Wow, I'm so excited to see this response! As the happy faces say, "Hooray!"  I'm one who also doesn't like the new combined tile and much preferred the old individual tiles, but what I've actually missed the most has been those smiley faces cheering me on - it was so much more rewarding even though it's kind of goofy.  I would be SO happy to have them back.......... !
