When GPS is used to map an activity, the minutes spent in each heart rate zone is not provided. The minutes spent in each heart rate zone is shown when logging any activity that doesn't use GPS, so the fitbit tracker is definitely able to measure this data, it just doesn't show it with GPS.

Please add crosstrainer as an exercise form! Moderator Edition: Updated title for clarity

Can you add the floors climbed in the stats or "impact" page of a workout, especially on runs?

Nikkholl · ‎09-05-2018

Adding number of minutes spent exercising per day or week (currently you can just select number of days per week where you exercise at least once as a goal) would allow users to automatically see if their levels of physical activity are in line with World Health Organisation guidelines for physical activity.

Most of my non-running workouts don't involve steps. For instance I do a kickboxing/boxing workout pretty regularly and it counts steps based on my hand motions. If I work the speedbag for a few minutes, it adds up to a few hundred steps. As a result, I have to remove my watch when doing this workout and I don't get my heart rate recorded during this time. Ideally, this would be a setup option for all of the workouts, except maybe the workouts like Run and Hike or anything that has the option to use the GPS. I would like to be able to go into the setup for a workout on the watch, and turn off step counting. Moderator edit: Clarified subject and labels

DrKendra · ‎05-21-2018

The problem is simple: there are non-step count exercises that could all be swept up in a generic exercise shortcut. The activity could then be started/stopped on your device. It should have no step count and count no change in elevation. Just the basics: time and heart rate info. That way a lot of different exercises that so far Fitbit is ignoring could use the same feature. I want it for horseback riding, but I also saw a post with someone who was frustrated that spinning uses an accelerometer. This problem extends to many other exercises. This would create a fix for a massive segment of the Fitbit community. Why would the company not just do it??? (Apparently the people working on the AppleWatch have figured this out).

SunsetRunner · ‎03-06-2018

I would like to manually log a lap when In the run function. I swear this used to be a function which has been lost in a software update. Very poor and making a switch to other smart watch more likely if this is not rectified

I love that you have come out with a waterproof Fitbit, as a swimmer. Would love one that had a display like the Alta. Waiting to purchase until I find out if something like that is in the making.

PhilCaff · ‎02-23-2025

I ride a motorbike and have no way of stopping my tracker from recording ridiculous step numbers. They're is no way to delete time specific steps either, so my tracker is now redundant Moderator edit: Clarified subject

BillieTries · ‎09-05-2022

my Inspire 2 gave me suggestions to improve my overall fitness level like "try running for 30 minutes 3-5 times a week". Like many users, I am partially disabled and cannot run, but I can do other forms of exercise. Please provide better personalization of the app in order to avoid ableist suggestions. Perhaps a checklist about user's abilities? Moderator Edit: Clarified subject

Would like to manually enter workouts for glutes, legs and abs, but haven’t found any options that would capture this Moderator Edit: Clarified subject

MSRebel · ‎04-06-2022

I would like a setting where my Fitbit 5 would automatically revert from water lock to normal after a fixed amount of time. Ideally, the user could choose the amount of time in their settings. Moderator Edit: Clarified subject

DougSteward53 · ‎01-17-2022

Since I can not find out how far I have run in miles during the year without using pen and paper. It would be nice to have an alarm set to tell you when you have run 500 miles or getting close. Then I could order a new set of running shoes as recommended. Moderator Edit: Clarified subject

KG_2run6 · ‎10-22-2020

Chosen automatic lap setting should stick. The automatic lap setting on my versa defaults to three miles. I prefer my runs to have a 0.5 lap setting and every time I go to start a run I have to manually change the lap setting from 3.0 mi to 0.5 miles. The setting should stick once I make my preference Moderator Edit: Clarified subject

Boxkick · ‎08-16-2020

It would be awesome to have the interval workout combined with the data you get from the run workout. That way fitbit would still buzz at your intervals but it would record the workout as a run and show data by the mile instead of showing calories burned in each interval.

Zap184 · ‎11-19-2018

There are exercise categories that the app does not allow us to categorize: (1) Abs (2) Snow Blower (3) Shoveling Snow (4) MMA (5) HIIT (6) Isometric (7) Synergetics (8) Plyometrics (9) Calisthenics

hrushikesh198 · ‎02-16-2018

While doing biking in city you need to take stops at traffic signals. This interferes with the minimum duration threshold and prevents the SmartTrack to detect activity.

TomRbiker · ‎08-13-2016

Please add moving average to the bike program. To truly measure fitness progress the ability to know your true moving average would be very helpful. Moderator Edit: Added Labels/Title for Clarity

dougEfit · ‎01-13-2025

I am not sure why you changed the exercise presets on the Inspire 3 and I fail to see how the new method of listing the 3 most recent exercises helps anyone. For anyone who alters their workouts every day the new way is inconvenient, especially when you do things that are at the bottom of the list. Please bring back the list of 5 or 6 presets.

Ahanley11 · ‎11-28-2024

The virtual hike challenge was so fun and simple. It's been gone for ages but it was one of the fun and easy challenges to do with friends. Something similar would at least entice people to start working out in a fun way. Moderator Edit: Clarified subject and updated label

Lei33 · ‎03-04-2024

When activity tracking is started, various data such as heart rate is tracked until activity is ended and the activity details shows all such data. However, for an activity that was manually added post this activity, this data is not absent. Suggestion is that if heart rate was in fact tracked during the retrospectively added activity, show it.

SwimmerB · ‎09-27-2023

Add an option to manually add a swim workout (laps, distance, calories, etc). Currently, I can only track these by manually adding swim workouts on the desktop. I have an old charge 2 I need to keep using so I can’t swim with it. Moderator edit: Clarified subject and updated label

rakfink · ‎01-13-2023

Please add presets for Nordic skiings two styles, classic and skate Moderator Edit: Clarified subject

R0bl · ‎03-22-2021

I am suffering from the problem of the GPS in the charge 4 dropping out. The issue I have is not the GPS dropout but how the charge deals with this by stopping the tracking of the exercise. It should be trying to reacquire the GPS signal not distracting me with warning messages.

ChrisseH · ‎11-19-2020

Disappointed to see that I can't track yoga on my Fitbit inspire.Please introduce soon 😊 Moderator Edit: Clarified subject

add swimming pool lenght 8m and 9m Moderator edit: Clarified subject and labels

Meoh · ‎05-28-2018

I often lose step competitions because the exercise I do doesn’t generate a lot of steps. I exercise more but get less steps I.e boxing, weight lifting etc. It would be good to have a combo of steps and time exercised competition thanks Moderator Edition: Updated title for clarity and labels

Holzer4 · ‎05-17-2018

I love riding unicycles and understand that I could use the bike tracking as an option. But it wouldn’t track as accurately as an app for unicycle tracking would. Moderator Edition: Updated title for clarity

SunsetRunner · ‎10-15-2016

I think it would be great if my Fitbit Surge guide me to improve my breath with an exercise session. Thank you

Can Fitbit work with user/governments in the same way as apple is doing with and pay user to keep fit? You can read more. Moderator Edit: Clarified subject
