 VERY DISAPPOINTED WITH GROUPS:exclamation_mark:️

 

How is a post of someone winning Goal Day a helpful swimming tip??

 

Mostly all Groups are only post after post of people bragging on themselves by posting their latest badge or stats. 

 

i was looking forward to Groups that could be created to stay in touch with friends. Fitbit has excelled in wearables by adding a social component. Groups as they are is a worthless waste of time. 

 

You can not see who the group members are, group stats etc. Groups as they were online when Fitbit first started would be great.

I believe the old activity groups are still available if you want to use them:

Yes, the old Activity groups are there but only online & seldom used now. It would be great if this style of groups were brought to the phone. Create your own, public or private, view members, leaderboards etc. it's what was expected with the new groups.

I agree. There needs to be a way to create or join a group that is more applicable to specific wants/needs (Or to suggest new ones to Fitbit to add). I had a garmin tracker which I didn't like as well but there were so many community groups. I joined a national group of teachers and a group of teachers in my state who walked on their lunch breaks. We could create community events or challenges. I miss having options like that - especially for people who may not have large friends lists but still want to stay connected and motivated.
