Best AnswerWhen will this finally be actually resolved? It's more than a bit annoying losing multiple thousands of steps when syncing with the app. I had 6000k+ steps, now I have 2.6k... It's not even 1pm here and apparently the only time I will have been active today is around 7 pm... it's not an fitbit issue, it's an app issue. Either roll it back or solve it already. How hard can it be? It didn't happen in earlier versions, so just look at what changed and undo the damage...
Best AnswerHi Arboga, I updated the app and it fixed the problem! On iPhone go to App Store, click on your pic or ID logo, scroll down until you find Fitbit app and update. Last update, I think, was 3/18/2020. Hope this fixes your issue!
Best AnswerUpdated the app, but Nope, still no heartrate when using the app.
Starting to regret my purchase of Fitbit by now.

How can this take so long time to fix?
@Arboga You are just starting to regret your Fitbit purchase now? You must not have had it very long. 😉 You should read through some of the other threads here. Any thread.

Best Answer@KateFitbit I'm currently on app version 3.12.1 and I'm not experiencing any issues recording exercises. Wouldn't the simplest fix be to roll back the app to a previous version where everything was working?
It's my understanding that this issue was tied to a specific app update so couldn't the app just go back to the version before the issue?
There really hasn't been any new features introduced to the fitbit app, which can be verified here: https://help.fitbit.com/articles/en_US/Help_article/2025/ . It's also clear that the recent set of bug fixes introduced a rather "big" bug that's proven o be hard to get rid of.
Since there hasn't been any new features introduced to the app rolling it back would seem like the quicker option to resolve the issue for those in the community. Especially since according to the banner recent events affected your operations. The community just doesn't know what kind of time frame to expect to have the issue resolved and if can be resolved in a timely manner with the recent events affecting your operations. Whereas you could just roll the app back to the previous version and pretty much solve the issue immediately.
@KateFitbit
Well... i updated the app.
Still the same problem. didnt expect other anyway.
Do something to fix this. Your team obviesly need to step up.
At least fix a rollback to previus, working, version of the app.

Best Answer@KateFitbit if you follow the start of this thread which is on 2/22/20 this issue more than likely appeared when Fitbit updated the app on 2/21/20 with version 3.15.1. Information regarding the app update history can be found here https://help.fitbit.com/articles/en_US/Help_article/2025/.
More importantly you can see that the current version of the app is 3.18. According to the app update history that's been 4 updates since the start of the thread! The problem is that the issue still isn't resolved!
4 tries seems a bit excessive especially since this issue still persists. Is there any specific reason as to why the app can't be rolled back to version 3.14? There really hasn't been any new features introduced in the app and the "bug fixes and stability improvements" made in the last couple of updates has actually caused more bugs and made the app less stable.
Is fitbit going to roll the app back to a previous and stable version?
