I can't always weigh myself at a consistent time, so it would be helpful if there was a notes section when entering my weight so I can say what time of day, what I'd eaten right before the weigh-in etc. ... View more

Your recent change to the fitbit.com web tracking page has reduced the data presented to the user. While this may be desirable to some users, it is considered a loss of important information for many others (as is evident in your dashboard forum.   I only now realized that you have a suggestion forum so I'm here to ask... plead, that you either restore the old graphing capability (multiple data points per day), or at the very least, give users the option to choose.   You have implemented a change that removes valuable data for those of use who monitor their weight multiple times per day to stay on track. Your current choice of removing data, actually creates a stumbling block to that process.   Please return your product to be a benefit, instead of a hindrance as it is now.   (I realize we can still see the individual data points below in list form, it's not the same. A graphed representation is a better motivator)   I'm not asking that you change it back... I'm certain you have your reasons for the change and some users may prefer it. I'm saying, it's always a bad idea to REMOVE data. Give users both options please. ... View more

Fitbit charge 2 dashboard currently shows a chart for weight progress against a line that represents the target weight & the success date that was initially set by fitbit based on your chosen difficulty intentions. It would be good if a projected line from start to target was provided in this chart so you could see if you were on track or at least a forecast target date based on your actual progress.   Moderator edit: Labels & Title ...

On the FitBit app, the weight chart shows "ALL" and includes all weight logs going back as long as you manually enter.   However, on the Fitbit portal on line, "ALL" actually only shows 10 years of data.   This should be corrected.  It is an easy fix.   ... View more

A number of people have suggested the option of adding a photo to a weight log entry. I myself was a little surprised that Fitbit apparently doesn't currently offer this feature. I've been logging weight and body fat for while, and I've been taking status photos. Since my camera app records the photo's date and time, I have the ability to manually compile data for comparison. However, it would be cool to see this in the app itself.   And once this is in place [suggestive optimism], a related feature would be the ability to specify dates for comparison, and have a side-by-side display of the corresponding stats and photos. How cool would that be? ... View more

I have a Fitbit Charge 2 and love it. I can record my weight goal and track my weight loss, plus see how far I am from my goal. Unfortunately though, unlike other weight loss apps, Fitbit does not tell me when I should expect to reach my goal. I used a calculator and figured it out as I don't-want-to/have-time-to record data on multiple platforms. I realize the date may change .. if I were to speed up my weight loss the date would move closer, and if I should slow it down it would take that bit longer. Fitbit would be the perfect vehicle to measure these moving goal posts! I'm hoping others will agree that a cute built in Fitbit graph would be a great addition to an already spectacular product. I can only imagine how motivating it would be to monitor this on a daily basis as I celebrate taking charge of my health.   Moderator edit: Labels ... View more

Hi, Weight goal is visible on fitbit dashboard by defau. If we click quick view on weight goal, 3 more trends -  weight, lean vs. fat and BMI can be seen.    If we set weight reduction is the goal, then it's really very important to see these 3 graphs/trends on the dashboard- which is not possible currently. (FYI- currently i am using withing scale-  body composition wifi scale- and fitbit gets data from Health Mate app)    It would be highly appreciating if Fitbit introduces this option in the coming release.    Moreover i should say that this is available (and nicely displayed) on competitor's app (i.e. Withings health mate app ).    Snapshot from health mate web dashboard:       Thanks in advance!

It'd be great if a body fat percentage goal could be added instead of just weight as muscle weighs more than fat weight alone really is irrelevant if you're working out.   Moderator Edit: Added Labels ... View more

Hi!   For a very long time, I couldn't understand why I wasn't losing weight even though I was eating at the calorie level dictated by my Fitbit - when I say "long time," I mean over a few years (I've been a Fitbit user since May of 2012).  Finally, last year I had my resting metabolic rate tested by my doctor, and found it to be about 25% lower than what it appears Fitbit was using as a baseline for my daily calorie burns.  This made the total daily burns given to me by Fitbit almost useless.   Through a lot of research and trial and error I was able to work something out where I adjusted my age and height as well as switched from a Charge HR to an Alta and I think I've finally gotten my daily burns where they should be.  However: (1) my distance walked each day is incorrect due to not being able to appropriately adjust my stride, (2) my expensive Charge HR is now useless to me (as the change in my age has lowered the HR range for exercise zones for me and significantly over-inflates calories burned), (3) the body fat percentage feature on my expensive Aria scale is now useless to me (it won't even calculate anymore, I assume due to the age I entered since that's when it stopped), and, possibly most importantly, (4) not everyone who runs into this issue is going to have the time and knowledge to figure something like this out.   It's an accepted fact that BMR calculations based on general statistics can be off by a wide margin - they are based on estimates and averages only, and while they're "good enough" for most people they're still going to be grossly incorrect for a lot of Fitbit users.  Being able to take those estimates and averages and replace them with a personalized number based on actual medical testing would be a huge step in making the Fitbit experience infinitely more accurate and useful for those users who need that capability and are armed with the knowledge to address it appropriately.   PLEASE incorporate this feature!! ...

Hello, My husband and I both have fitbits. We would like to share our weight and weight goals with each other, but not with our other friends. Please consider adding the option for users to select who they want to share weight and weight goals information with. Thanks!   Moderator edit: Added labels  ... View more

I've reached my goal weight. I'd now like to set a maintainance goal that's a range of a couple pounds, rather than a new goal. I'd like to see continued congratulations for staying at my maintainance weight, not a notice that I need to gain or lose half a pound. Would that be possible?   Moderator edit: labels. ... View more

We desperately need a body fat chart. I'm not interested in monitoring lean body mass, or fat mass. It makes much more sense to track percentage body fat.   Right now, I have to go to the Weight tab, hit "Load 10 more" many times, copy-paste all the text under Measurement History into a Word document, use find-replace to reformat the text, copy-paste into Excel, and manually build a chart. Why can't I just see this chart on my Fitbit Log? Moderator edit: labels. ... View more

The weight goal tile when I joined up was an awesome little graph of my weight over time. Then sometime later I wondered what would happen if I set a weight goal, so assuming that I'd be able to remove it afterwards I set a pretend weight goal.   Now I can't remove it, only change it. I don't want to change it, I don't want any weight goal at all. I've removed the tile from my dashboard but I don't want to do that, I just want the weight graph back.   It can't just be me. There must be other people who want to have a weight goal for a while and then change their minds and decide they don't care any more or something. I contacted support to delete my weight goal for me and even they couldn't do it!   Support told me to post it here, so here I am. Can anyone else imagine wanting this feature?
