Anyone know how to adjust the Biking feature to display current speed?

The biking feature would be soo much better if you could actually see your speed in real time. The best I can do currently is use the avg. speed. Does anyone know of a better way?

Sorry, but that is the best you can do. Your speed is calculated at the end of the trip after the total time and distance is known.

It is calculating the average speed real-time so I know it is capturing the
speed as you go. It just doesn't show it on the watch and this is an epic
fail for the fitbit product team.

They seem to be so focused on steps that they aren't looking at other ways
their products can compete with the likes Garmin for cycling.

My suggestion to them is to improve the functionality soon or they will
miss a huge market opportunity.

Thanks for the reply.

Actually, that's a great idea @Daknar! It would be really useful for the ones who want to keep track of the intensity, based on the speed they are biking at. Smiley Very Happy

 

I'm pretty sure our team would be pleased to check such a great idea, so why don't you give this idea a vote in our Feature Suggestion board? You can also leave your comments and post your own ideas! 

 

Happy Holidays! I'll be around if you need anything else. Heart
