Since Google obtained Fitbit, I have had one problem after another. Settings that I have had forever changed without my permission. GPS turned on.

Menus changed. 15 days ago Sync stopped working and won't reconnect. The Sense has a date of July 22nd and incorrect time. Sense Bluetooth no longer seems to be working.

On Saturday the 27th of August, the battery was dead. In several rechargings since, the battery is dying in less than 8 hours. My suspicion is that Google's programmers are screwing up the firmware and gradually destroying the Fitbit Sense.

Similar things are happening with my sense. Battery life is ridiculously low, used to be 24 hours until I had to charge it and it would charge fully fast, in about 15 minutes, not anymore it is a lot slower to charge.

It just suddenly stopped counting miles 2 days ago. It had started to be wonky with miles last week saying it was way less for the same amount of steps the day before. I'm so annoyed. .
