An app to manually measure SpO2 for 1-2 min (like ECG) or can monitor oxygen concentration continuously all day Moderator Edit: Clarified subject

I will admit to being someone who quite recently learned what BMR (Basal Metabolic Rate) is and that we burn a certain amount of those calories just to live based on our gender, weight and height. Currently Fit Bit combines BMR and activity calories together. While I think it's very valuable for people to be aware of BMR, it's also nice to see (and reward yourself) for activity based calories. It would be really nice to have a clear seperation of the two in a real-time tally on the Dashboard and even on the Fit Bit device. Ex. Today: BMR - 790 Activity - 560 Active Minutes - 200 Total - 1350 Frankly, throughout my day, all I care about is activity calories. Right now as a user I have to do a calculation at end of day (total calories minus my avg BMR) to see how hard I worked that day, sweating my butt off, not just blinking and breathing. Thanks! I'd love to hear whether or not i'm just missing something and this is available, or if it's something you'd consider for an enhancement. Kristi Moderator Edit: Labels / Updated subject for clarity.

The music controls on your new Charge 6 are just some advertisement to most. Its for a paid service only and was the only feature that may have convinced me to get the device till I saw. Switch this to use generic commands, to control any music playing on your phone. Generic controls exist on lots of Bluetooth headphones, surely Charge 6 could too.

When using the manual walk activity, I frequently forget to end/finish the activity .It would be awesome if, using the same logic for auto activity detection, a notification could be generated for a manual activity has not been manually finished, but the fitbit detects has probably been completed. Not to actually finish the activity automatically, but to prompt the user with "it looks like you've finished your activity 10 minutes ago, is this correct?". Sort of like Netflix's " are you still watching?" prompt.

I was disappointed to find that when I track exercise I cannot switch between playlists and choose specific songs as I can in the music app. The only functions currently available are fast forward, volume and device output (when you hold down the button) which are basic functions already on my wireless headphones. I have different playlists for different parts of my workout which I switch between during my workout. I also like to scroll through songs to choose the one I want. This is available in the music app on the ionic but not during workouts. Please can you look at making this available as it is a real drawback on the ionic. Love my ionic and not having to take my phone with me into the gym but frustrated with the lack of functionality during workouts. Moderator Edit: Added Labels

Right now people like myself that use a Google Workspace (so not something [at] gmail.com) account as their main account, are locked out of Fitbit "login with Google" features - and our accounts can't be migrated. Moderator edit: Clarified subject and updated label

If this has been said before - sorry, I’ve searched but nothing exactly like this has come up - so their are limited clock faces for the inspire HR. Im literally just after something like the face ‘Just Time’ but with nicer type - I’m English and am used to the day|month display - so the month|day display always confuses me at first glance - hence why I’ve got to use the ‘Just time’ clock face, but the type is boring, but all other clock faces are month|day rather than what I’m used to. Im not fussed about stats showing as I’ll just scroll down for that! Just the time and date on the first screen is fine but I don’t think it’s fair I’m stuck to one clock face which boring type because I’m not used to the reverse date! Thanks Moderator edit: updated subject for clarity

As a woman, walking, running and biking alone can be dangerous. Is it possible to have an emergency alert button that shows the contact of my choice or the authorities a location and SOS signal? The Gear 2 has it in place and I loved it. You push a button 3 times to send the alert. Moderator Edit: Added Labels

Though the new Inspire 2 gives insight in sleep stages, the Smart Wake feature is absent. Other Fitbit activity trackers (for example the Charge 4) do have this feature which allows the user to be woken up at the best moment given the sleep stages.

I just received my new Pixel watch and was disappointed to find out I could no longer use my Versa 3 watch as well. My Pixel watch has a battery life of 24 hours which is not sufficient to get me through a camping weekend. I thought I could switch between the 2. I would be willing to remove all apps from my Versa 3 to get that functionality. Moderator Edit: Clarified subject and label

DouglasDraeger · ‎10-04-2017

Would be cool to just download a 5 or 10 mile radius from the phone app, then go for a walk and see where you're at. Basically just a dot to see your location on a map with the ability to zoom in and out. Navigation to a predefined destination for bonus points. Moderator Edit: Clarified subject and updated label

BecTaylor25 · ‎05-12-2018

Hi, would it be at all possible to get some ‘emotional’ options to add into the log for the female tracking? It’s a great tool but in my opinion missed a trick by having only physical symptoms not mental ones too - like ‘teary 😢’, ‘agitated 😤’ ‘angry 😡’ ? Moderator Edit: Added Labels/Title for Clarity

The calendar method is not accurate for anyone with a cycle other than 28 days or variable cycles (which is the majority of the population). Basal body temperature is a reliable method for determining fertility. Please add an option to add daily temperatures AND include this in the algorithm. Thank you. Moderator Edit: Clarified subject

Cooper_E · ‎02-14-2015

I've seen one or two of these in different topics, but I wanted to make a universal post to consolidate them, and add a few. I would love to have reminders for: Drinking water Moving Appointments Weighing (if you weighed yourself on your Aria, or manually entered your weight at 10pm yesterday, the app could remind you to weigh yourself at 10pm tonight) Sleeping (if you have an alarm set for 8am, the app reminds you to go to bed at 12am to get 8 hours of sleep) Eating (you set the number of meals you eat per day, and times, and the app reminds you to enter what you ate at those times) Excercising (you set when you want to exercise each day, and the app reminds you) These would change the app from a passive data collector to a powerful motivational coach.

I love my fitbit flex but I would love to see and upgrade to include heart rate monitoring. I currently use a separate heart rate watch when working out to get a better accuracy for calories burned because when I do the insanity workout for 45 minutes the flex only says 6 minutes active but I know I am working very hard for the entire 45 minutes. Will this ever be an option? Moderator Edit: Updated label

I know it's perhaps not the most common exercise, but common enough and it's incredibly difficult to gauge what kind of calory burn and value this kind of exercise has, because - well the horse does most of the work! There is a huge difference in riding styles and how this effects my own exercise level: trail riding can be just walking - where the rider has little exercise, but if you trot it's quite the exercise for the rider too. Then there is the distance aspect, which is invalid when you do dressage or arena riding... Finally jumping has quite a different impact again. Since I work for a digital agency, I know that you must have business logic to build out expensive new features both for the sensors, the logic/algorithm and how you present it on the web. I know it's a huge effort. But with an equestrian tracker, you will have a captive audience and a weathy niche market who will be loyal customers. You'll need to do little marketing as this is definitely an industry/audience who are all interconnected and exchange ideas, infos and new products readily. And if you want to go all out, you could combine it with a FitBit for the horse - because most horse owners also want to monitor the stress on their horse as well as their horses' fitness.

It would be great if we were able to turn off/disable the vibration on the automatic goal notification. It can be quite startling. My heart just about stops almost everytime it happens. Moderator Edit: Added Labels

Please update the sleep tracker and move away from “Restless” vs “Asleep” to focus more on “Light” vs “Deep” sleep. From your definition of “Restless” sleep and from what my tracker says, “Restless” really seems to represent a lighter sleep. This is still sleep, and is an important part of a person’s sleep cycle (a person cannot just be in deep sleep and unmoving all night, it is necessary to cycle). I don’t quite understand why restless (or light) sleep would not count towards a person’s overall sleep. The way your tracker is currently configured seems to create some panic in blogs, because people see that they have only slept 4 of 8h, for example, and assume that they have some kind of a sleeping disorder. It would be more helpful to know whether we have slept 7-9 hours (including light and deep sleep), and whether we get around the 30-40% deep sleep that is suggested. I think this could be an easy integration, the Fitbit already has the movement and HR data necessary to decipher between the two, at least approximatively. In other words, something to help determine the quality of sleep would be excellent and make the Fitbit the best overall wellbeing tracker. If there was a way to integrate a smart alarm to make sure wakeup is during a light sleep cycle, that would be even better! Moderator edit: labels and updated subject for clarity.

When your group of friends in a challenge all have different step goals it can actually be demotivating to constantly be losing out if you don't have the capacity to compete. Why not have a challenge where the group commits to reach a high step goals of, say, 100,000 in a week. Everyone joins in to try and do a bit. Everyone contributes that which they can manage.

EllaF23 · ‎11-27-2023

I just got back from I run and I can’t see the break down in splits per KM or the location in which I ran, or the breakdown or heart rate throughout that run? I bought this watch to do exactly that as that was how it was advertised to me. Moderator Edit: Clarified subject

RiverGoose · ‎01-10-2017

It would be great if SmartTrack could recognise the motion of rowing - ergo, sculling or sweep oar. As indicated by one of the moderators these are not 'steps' but there is a defined motion and I would imagine that this could be differentiated. Once recognised, the rowing rate could be shown / logged alongside the heart rate. Maybe a bit specialist for Fitbit's user base, but if the GPS was to be used in conjunction with SmartTrack, a rolling 500m split time alongside the rowing rate could be displayed and logged when on the water, which if accurate I'm sure rowing users would pay extra for.

It would be awesome if the charge 3 would support sdk/watch face api to let the community create custom watch faces (and apps). Even if this would be a stripped down version of the api capabilities that the versa and ionic have. The app and watch face marketplace assume this possibility.

Please consider adding additional tracker activities to the fitbit app. Would specifically like to see downhill skiing and quad/inline skating. These are activities that are physically intense, but don't necessarily register a lot of "steps". Would like to be able to get the "credit" for the work put forth in these activities. Also, would be nice to see separate mountain biking vs street cycling as the mountain biking speed is likely to be far less due to terrain, but the workload is significant.
