Community Tab in IOS updated App

[Blake]

Thanks for the update to your app, but can we please, on the next version, push the feed part of the community tab, to the back.  I want to tap on community and immediately see how I am doing compared to my friends, like how it used to be, I don't want to see this "Welcome to Community" page, and then have to TAP again to see my friends and how I am doing compared to them.

Who decided this was a good change?  Did you pilot this before deciding on this format?  It's annoying and unwanted, at least to me.

Moderator Edit: Format.

Hi Marco, I got the notification for the community tab in-app but I still only see the friends tab? Is the community in-app a feature that is to be rolled out to all users in waves?

I have an iPhone 7 Plus, iOS 10.3.2 beta, FB Charge2 and use the latest Fitbit app version.

Hello @Blackish, I hope you're having a great day, thanks for joining the conversation. 

Thank you for your interest in the Community tab, while some customers may not see Community right away, we are working to roll out this feature across customers in the US. As well, if you're not in the US at the moment, I would like to recommend keeping an eye on future updates where the tab will be implemented internationally. 

I hope this resolves your inquiry, thank you for your patience and understanding, if there's anything else I can help you with, feel free to reply!

Exactly right, who asked for this, seems to be an attempt to create a fitness Facebook?  Can we just see our own friends again please?

[Blake]

Agree, we don't need another social app.  I posted this in a different forum as well.

Hello @BrettCava, thanks for joining us, it's a pleasure for me to welcome you to the Fitbit Community. It's nice to see you as well @Blake. 

@BrettCava, I understand the Community tab might not be ideal for you and you'd like to see only your friends again, which is why I would like to suggest you to vote and comment on @Blake's suggested idea to have the ability to personalize this tab. 

I hope this can be helpful, if there's anything else I can do for you, please keep me posted!
