1. Create a clock face that allows the user to see the time, date, and steps all at once. 

2. Create a cutomizable clock face. That allows the user to see the date and time plus 2 or 3 stats of his or her choice.

3. A clock face with military time.

Sometimes there are cases when I can't log exactly what I want to by trying to find the correct fractions of servings or logging multiple servings, etc.  And sometimes what's in the database for a given food isn't the same as the package.  I'd like a way to just log a number of calories in the case that I've figured out that information myself (so calories would be added to the list of options with cups, tbsp, servings, etc.)  This should also cover overriding a food already in the database with an incorrect calorie count.

Houston is the 4th largest city in the world and Minneapolis made the cut but Houston didn't? I would love to meet other users in my area but Austin is the closest city (4 hours away)... what gives?

Please! Fix this issue! Because I can’t delete weight history and am using the Aria 2 scale, the Fitbit app thinks my wife and I are the same person and neither of us can see our progress. I deleted every individual weight log but it still shows weights. Help!

It is essential to have an 'interval training' option on fitbit (on all devices as none seem to have this feature) specifically for running, with options to add a start up and warm down. I bought the fitbit to help me do 'couch to 5k', and there are various timers I would like to be able to set in the 'run' section as opposed to interval workout, as I believe this is not tracking the running properly. 

It is also very irritating that on interval workout you only have the option of 'move', 'rest' and 'repeat' x times. I would like to be able to put in

move 5 min

rest 1 min

move 10 min

rest 2 min

etc

with varying times in the same session, which is currently not possible on the inspire HR.

I am a programmer and know that the whoever programmes the fitbit software could implement this is less than 5 minutes, a first year university student could code that up in 10 minutes, it's not challenging to do from a software prospective, particularly as already fits in with other functionality the fitbit has, so the only reason this has not been done already is.....?
Only had my fitbit a week and already considering refunding it and buying a Garmin because of this lack of basic functionality. 

Give me access to fitbit software and I'll code this in for you myself for free, this is so basic and easy to do it's absurd fitbit doesn't already have this functionality!

Our research team is seeking to use FItBit in a study, and has not yet selected a device.

We need to turn off ALL user-alerting features (watch, app, text, etc). The researchers' concern is that these alerts could change behavior, and the researchers only want to measure behavior.

Is such a "research/tracking only" mode available currently? Could it be made available? Would using a 3rd party data aggregator app, rather than the FitBit app, make this possible? 

Thank you.

Currently, Fitbit App users are able to change their goal only on the current day and then the goal is new moving forward - which means you can't track your progress from a previous date in relation to the goal change. For people who have always had the same weight goal but didn't update this section until they were further along in their fitness journey or for those who have wanted the flexibility of changing their goal once they've realized what they're capable of - we should have the option of changing our goal and implementing it on the day we recognize it as changing, not just letting the App automatically recognize that current day. 

For example: When I first started out, I was unfamiliar with the App so I didn't put in a goal until a few weeks later. By then, however, I'd lost a lot of weight. However, when I put in my new goal, it pretty much had me starting from scratch. It felt like I personally knew I'd lost that weight, but the app wasn't acknowledging it and it's frustrating not to have accuracy. Likewise, I later changed my goal weight when I realized what I'm capable of. But, when I changed my goal, it didn't start from the day I started my fitness journey - it started that day. So it basically cut my long term results in half. 

I'd really like to see more flexibility with the goal change. Like, possible give us the option to choose dates, instead of automatically only populating the current date. That way, if I choose a date from 5 months ago, then I could keep all the data up to date on how much progress I've made towards my goal - without having to configure it out on my own.

Hello, 

i think it it would be a great feature to be able to manually start tracking workouts. 

For example, Apple Watch has a feature where you begin tracking your workout and then you stop it when you’re done and it tells you at the end how long it was, how many calories were burned, heart rate etc. 

i think something similar would would be great for Fitbit because it only allows you to track run/bike/walk and even if it recognizes active minutes, it doesn’t log it as a “workout” or give you specific stats about how many calories you burned during that specific period of time. 

Thank you! 

Hi Fitbit, 

LINE app text notification needs to be in my Inspire would be great. Also the clock face, heavy stat if you had current date in there would be good.

I’d like to suggest this integration - according to the mypthub faqs, they offer Fitbit integration as a main feature; but when I checked the Fitbit information it isn’t available 

I would love to be able to customize calendar notifications. Mostly, I haven't figured out when I get a notification from my calendar...

I would love to be able to set WHEN I would get the notification (5 minutes prior? 10?) and I would love for the band to be able to recognize when I turned on travel time in my calendar, and notify me before travel time AND the event.

Whenever I do sports I can't choose sports as a workout. I hope this will be included in a future software update.

There are thousands of us who live outside of cities away from gyms. We don' t go to Pilates but we do chop wood, shovel, and swing a pickaxe...burning lots of calories as we go. Can we please add these exercises to the list? Or, make a way so we may add a custom exercise on our own.

Thanks

I want a thermometer or at least the weather on my Fitbit

I like using the analog clock face, but I would love to see numbers being used. It would make it way easier and faster to read. Is there anything in the works for this?

when creating a custom food in the detail view, it would be nice to log micro-nutrients: iron, vitamin D, calcium, the B vitamins, vitamin C and others 

I’ve had several Fitbits... Flex, Charge, Charge 2, Blaze and now Ionic ....With Ionic, especially, we are using our workout trackers that are built in. Why isn’t there a way to specifically see your individual workouts you’ve recorded right on your App’s Dashboard ? .... and we should be able to both “share” and “post to social media” our individual workouts 😊....It would be a great marketing tool for Fitbit also as others would see the posts and be inspired/motivated to buy one of their own . We also use the fitness tracker “MyZone” at our gym and we share/post those workouts, but we’d love to be able to share/post our Fitbit workouts too ! Is this something that can be added to Fitbit app ?

The new Fitbits are wonderful, but I'm coaxing my old Zip along, and wish it was continuing. What it has in abundance over the new models is battery life. I go hiking in the back country where charging isn't an option. 

Can you bring the Zip line back please?

Allow for time change from the app...

when you travel it is it a pain to go to

website you do a time

change

I bought my girlfriend and I Fitbit Charge 3's recently and I got excited to start using the Fitbit and compete daily for steps.  No matter what I've tried we are unable to see each other's activity (steps).  That was a bit of a bummer and not motivational at all since that was the whole purpose for these to keep us moving throughout the day as two very competitive people.  Now there's no competing throughout the day between us.  

Please add this feature soon!  I've seen a lot of interest in this feature and it just makes sense.

Having just upgraded from the Alta to the Versa, I'm disappointed that the resting heart rate isn't one of the stats shown.

Could this be included in the next update?

Please can you add cardio fitness level to Fitbit Alta hr

Moderator edit: Topic for clarification

I would like to set a calorie goal, say 200. Then I would do my chosen exercise until I burned that many calories, at which point the fitbit would vibrate and I would stop exercising. 

Ideally when I looked at my fitbit, it would display calories burned since I manually started this exercise mode, so I would know how many more calories I needed to burn.

I would like the GO365 app to be added so it can be linked to my Fitbit account so I can start earning points

In a challenge employees must submit their monthly steps. Is there a way of getting a "monthly " tally page instead of weekly would be so much easier then having to gather the weekly emails or taking screen shots of the weeks

A way to view the benchmark information from the online Dashboard, currently the only way to view that benchmark information is through the smart phone app. 

Hi, so it's a well known problem that the band's are causing contact dermatitis (sweat rash) under the bands on a lot of the fitness watches. There is an easy way to fix/stop this by implementing small breathing holes throughout the entire band so the air can get through and the moisture can evaporate out. This would solve the rash problem and make the bands even more comfortable as the heat would be able to escape more easily. Thanks Tori
