Dashboard is different?

[Joshes]

We bought two of the same fitbits, one sync'd to an iphone 6, one to an iphone 6s.

Setup and synced, everything is great.  Except her dashboard is extremely different than mine (and I might include much easier to read and overall better).

My question: How can I get mine to look like hers?  (Her's is the general dashboard picture you see on the website and apple store, mine is the one with very big tiles)

Thanks!

Hello, @Joshes! : ) It is awesome to have you in the Community now! hmmm.. that's weird. The pictures were not succesfully uploaded, could you please upload them again so I can further assist you. Just click on the image as shown in the picture to do this.

I'll be waiting for your updates! 😉

@Joshes It sounds like you may be using a new app design that we’re trying out. As a result, your Fitbit app may look different from the versions you'll find on the Community, but rest assured that both versions of the App have all the same features.

At this time we don't have the ability to switch you over to the standard app design. The test will be over soon and at that time you will be switched over to the standard app design.

Hope this helps and welcome to the Fitbit Community!

Do you have the circles and huge blocks too? Not a fan!

I'm in the same boat I have the new app design and my husband has the standard app design and we downloaded them with in 15 minutes of each other.

Hello, @jENcIA!  Thank you so much for your feedback! This is very important for us to improve the experience of the App platforms. Remember that this will just be temporary, so when the App test is over you will go back to the previous one. 

I hope you all have a nice weekend and I hope to see you around, check out our cool Discussion boards, and share your story! 😉

Hello, my dashboard looks different than the list of tiles that others have (I like it). Is there a way to toggle to this layout from the single stacked list of tiles?

[mini-van]

I LOVE the test version. Would not want it to change to the standard stacked.

[SunsetRunner]

I noticed the same thing. Got my with a Charge HR, she installed the app on a iphone 6 and it looks very different from mine. Not sure what gives.

[SunsetRunner]

So that explains why I have the old dashboard and my wife who just created an account today has the new dashboard. We should have the option to toggle. I like the new version better. More intuitive.

@Hjzito710 @jENcIA @mini-van @SunsetRunner Thank you all for your candid feedback. I will be sure to relay your posts on to our team for review.

@DerrickS thank you. Personally I like the new version. When will a decision be made as to the dashboard to be pushed out to all users? Would be awesome if FitBit had a road map of upgrade features. i.e. Features completed, features underdevelopment, features being considered and features that were being considered but now are not.

Have to agree with @Joshes on preference and others with the desire to toggle the interface. I much prefer my wife's version which is the older non-beta. Would LOVE if we could toggle the view.

The new version is great!!! I love how easy it is to read and understand the information, my wife has the old version and i dont like it, neither does she.  Dont switch me back !!!! 🙂

My husband and I have the same thing going on.  Bought the same fitbits at the same time and have the same phone (6plus) and our dashboards are different.  I have the tiles.  I prefer the way his is laid out because it is easier for me to read and cut to the chase.  Kind of frustrating that I cant cahnge mine to the view I prefer.

The new version has a better battery life indicator.  Is it possible to get the same info in the other dashboard?

@SinDeeTee It all depends on how the test goes. If it goes well, it's possible that certain aspects of the test version of the App could be incorporated into the regular version of the App. I'm glad to hear that you like the battery indicator though. 

@Azambrano1714 Glad to hear you like it too!

@Smiller1 Unfortunately there isn't a way to opt out of the test, it will be over soon and at that time you will be switched to the standard app design. Apologies for any potential inconvenience. 

[Smiller1]

Evidently you can't. It's up to the Fitbit folks.

When will the app test be over? 

[DerrickS]

@Vnet I don't know the specific date, but I do know that the test is intended to be a short and should be over soon.
