Redesigned Sleep experience now in the Fitbit app

[RebeccaFitbit]

Hi everyone! Starting today, you may notice a new sleep experience in your Fitbit app. If you don't have it right away, please be patient as it can take some time to reach all users. 

Check out what’s new by going to the Fitbit Community blog. 

What do you think? Let us know!

This new graph shows I was not restless nor woke which is rabidly untrue! Do you suppose someone had to justify their jobs with Fitbit and this is the end result?

[PDogB]

Really don’t like the bar graph at all - please bring back the old version which was so much faster and easier to understand!  At a minimum, offer users a choice of which display to use, but I can’t imaging anyone liking this new version,

@Jshaw the problem with the Benchmark feature is a known issue. A fix for that is coming, but I do not know the time frame for that.

There has been over 1200 votes now to bring back the old sleep app data and graph but still nothing from Google.

I di not like it at all.  It's too busy..no contrast 

[Caselind]

You don't really want to know what we think, but if you care to read the comments from the Community, you'll get the picture. I have removed sleep tracking from my homepage because it is so frustrating. No horizontal view, so display is smaller than before. Color is drab and data lacks pop. Thirty day average is represneted by a DOT. (What??) Instead of a percent # that I can compare with last night's sleep. I used to check my sleep every morning, but I'll just learn to do without it until you make improvements that are actually improvements.

I completely agree with you and all of the similar comments. I've been wearing a fitbit for many years and this is a change for the worse. The sleep data has less color and is harder to follow. It's hard to see all of your sleep scores and to compare time in the different stages over the week. This is a great example of fixing something that isn't broken.

I read that Google is phasing out Fitbit watches and pushing Pixel
watches. Here is the article:

It's so hard to read!!! So confusing! Each section is not clear. It's a terrible design and makes it difficult to understand my sleep.

[Connie366]

how do I get the start my sleep mode now? 

Easier to users...NOT

[Connie366]

I just have to say that I was exhausted since ive been up since 4a and now its 1230a.  I went to go start my sleep mode and I couldn't find it.  well I got really aggravated, still can't find it and now im WIDE AWAKE!!!

I really hope enough people complain about this so you put it back.  If it isn't broke, don't fix it.  😡😖😕😠😠

[Connie366]

NOT happy at all with this new whatever your team thinks this is.  Easier to use? for whom?

I've had my fitbit one for 10 years.  Do I really have to trash my perfectly good device because fitbit thinks this new sleep experience is better? WOW!

I don't want to but if I have to, I will.  I really hope your team does the right thing and bring the old way/look back.  I thought I had the wrong app.

[davem59]

What on earth have you done to the Sleep app? It's awful! 

I've been considering dumping my Versa and changing to another brand but this new "improvement" might just make me change. 

Please undo this change and restore the old one as it was much better than this so called new and improved version.

Thanks

Honest answer I hate it, really difficult to see if you don't have good eye sight. Was much clearer on the dark background for contrast. Gives less information then before so really does seem style over substance. Would be good if fitbit gave you a chance to have it in the previous style as well. 

[Jodijaeger]

The Fitbit community has replied to this post repeatedly requesting a reversal of the sleep update without any response from the moderator.   What was the point of asking for our feedback? 

[loosewheel90]

I’m really glad I’m not the only person who’s beyond frustrated with this sleep update. As someone who suffers from sleep apnea I religiously used the sleep data to see how my heart rate and oxygen levels were during the night and I would also share this with my doctor. It was so simple and easy to use and now all of that information is gone? 

BRING BACK THE OLD SLEEP TRACKER!! 

[MaryH1967]

The feature where you can drag the cursor to see sleep stages is idiotic.  The graph already shows sleep stages by time.  I want to get back heart rate by time and also benchmarks displayed.

[loosewheel90]

100% AGREE!
