Hello all,
I'm coming to Fitbit from Amazfit (which I've used for 3 years without any problems, only it doesn't offer REM sleep and I somehow feel Fitbit is better at least at registering data).
The problem with fitbit started since I've opened the app and went to sleep:
1) The main screen (the first bullet from those 4) is this 1-week score history which nobody cares about. There are 4 possible screens, make an options to set one of them as default. Each person is different, and for each person different stats are more important.
2) The second bullet shows some data, like daily, monthly, 3-month and yearly sleep duration. But that's duration only. You can include here beside sleep duration, the average REM, deep, light and awake times.
3) The third bullet (speaking of different persons, it's the one I would make it MY "main screen") offers no information at all or I dont know how to access it. It also have a star on one of the days which I have no idea what it means. It shows only a graphic information on how did I slept over the last 6 days. And above it seems to be an average. This bullet (schedule) exactly like the 2nd bullet is, should offer a historic data view on weekly, monthly and yearly basis. (for example you could have a graph that shows 12 lines (one for each line) and if you select one it should show you average time asleep, average REM, deep, light, awake, average fell-asleep, average wake-up time.
For this, maybe the best approach would be to combine the 2nd and 3rd bullet together.
4) The forth bullet also is a bit irrelevant (taking into account what I've wrote at 3). This should also be part of 2nd bullet.
On top of that, I've received an in-app notification shown in attached picture. Apparently I wake up on average at 9:01. I've searched within app (i didn't had premium back then), nothing. I joined premium (those 3 months - 100% not continue it) still nothing. So......does Fitbit calculate some statistics about me that they are not showing?
I cannot fill in 4-5 feature request because the main idea would be lost, but is it possible that a moderator will take this post and check if as a whole or parts can be implemented?
I've also added some pictures of how Amazfit shows the statistics for reference (on request I can provide more)
Of course, another request (already filled in a feature request for that) is to make everything which is related to sleep free. For personal coach, yes, premium is ok, but not to hide new features added to sleep.
Any moderator would like to jump in and push this to fitbit devs?
Thanks!

Hello @adinasavescu, it's great to see you around!
Thank you very much for taking the time to provide your feedback and the information that you've shared! Looks like you've already opened some feature requests for this on our Feature Suggestions board, so, for now, we will leave these suggestions open for votes (and closed to comments) so that we can continue to track community demand over time. You can learn more about how Fitbit decides what suggestions get released in our FAQs.
For your suggestion to include the average REM, deep, light and awake times on the screenshot for duration, I'd like to let you know that if you swipe left on the Fitbit App (followed by the Sleep Schedule window) you will be able to see "Hours in Sleep Stages" you can click on the icon at the upper right corner next to this Title and you will be able to see the Average for REM, Light, Deep, No Stages. It can be seen per Week or Month.
See you around.

I agree, information is maybe available, but it is so spread through swipes and clicks that it's very hard to track it down. I would prefer instead of having a 7day window that I drag left and right to give me an average, to have them in a 2nd bullet style. Daily, weekly, monthly and yearly. Where yearly means that I can select February for example and show average asleep time (already implemented - free in 2nd bullet), average REM, deep, light, awake (you can manually move the 30-day window to February - Premium feature.....otherwise it's 7day window - in 4th bullet), but average fell asleep and wake-up time are not showing anywhere (they are calculated by Fitbit and statistics are being made (see last picture from 1st post), but are not shown).
As for the features already requested, it's very complicated to implement this kind of functionality out of 10-15 smaller tickets. It would be great if anyone takes it as a whole.
In the meantime i'll try to create another feature request to include fell-asleep and wake-up time in 2nd bullet statistics.
Thanks!
