Feedback about Health Metrics view update

The latest iOS update completely ruined the Health Metrics view. I used to be able to see a 90 day trend for all 5 metrics, which was very convenient. Now, I have to click on each metric, and can only see at max one month. It's a complete disaster, and I'm switching to either an Oura ring or Apple watch.

Daily stats aren’t useful, it’s the trends that matter. This is a big step backwards. Please restore the old trends functionality. 

I agree with the user above - each update seems to lose function and makes the switch to Apple Watch more compelling. 

Best Answer

I so much agree with the two commenters previous. Every update seems to lose functionality and decrease engagement with the product and the app.

100% Agree - This is truly Awful!  

I wish they had to ask permissions before updating!
Jobsworths doing zero market research!   
2 choices to see trends now- either move to a completely different system or revert to recording it by pen and paper.  
Is there a way to revert to old view? 

Best Answer

The jump between one month and one year is too huge to be useful. I already miss being able to look at 90 day trends. 

(if it were to be even better, we could select a wider variety of ranges, such as 6 months or  so.)

Discovered this issue today. It's very frustrating as the trends were one of the things I checked most regularly. The daily view is pointless. 

This is not a step forward.

Forgot to add, the 3 month view is the most useful. The new format requires to many multiple taps. Irritating.

In general the apps dashboard are getting worse and worse. I just want lag 30days history of everything. Trends matters, daily value doesn't. It's a "tracker" because I get daily datapoints.

I completely agree!  The new Health Metrics page is a disaster now.  The graphs are completely useless.  The old graphs were perfect - I love the 90 day view of all the metrics on one page.  Fitbit should abandon this new design and revert to the old, far superior one.

Agreed. This update ruined health metrics. It takes me about 5 times longer to get the information I need. When I make a change in my sleep, diet or exercise I want to see the daily values side by side with other metrics for a past time period. Although you have to individually select each metric to view the data (annoying) - the data I want is all there. The problem is it separated by month so at the start of the month I only see a few days. Change it back Fitbit/google or give me an option to view x number of previous days.

Agree 100%.  Terrible update. Was the update even looked at on a screen before they put it out?

I have been using the 90 day trend for all 5 metrics for 5 years to track heart health to live longer and manage my health habits.  This loss is upsetting and an example of corporate disaster making, hypocrisy, or worse. Please fix and restore.

Best Answer

I completely agree. The 90-day view was the most useful part of the app. As other commenters have shared, data in isolation isn't very useful... trends are. Especially for menstruating women whose health metrics change throughout the month -- seeing those trends in the 90-day view is useful. Looking at the new chart options is just frustrating. Fitbit, please reconsider this change!
