Is there a widget for Fitbit on iOS?

[lannak78]

Hi, I just switched from a Samsung to an iPhone and was wondering if there is a widget for my Fitbit like I had on my old phone? Thanks

Hello @lannak78, I hope you're doing well, it's nice to see you around the Fitbit Community. 

I appreciate your participation in the Forums. Please note that at this moment there are no widgets available for the Fitbit app on iOS. I understand how important for you is to have this feature included, which is why I would like to suggest you to check @SunsetRunner's suggested idea to implement this feature in the future. 

Please feel free to add your vote and comment, this is the best way to make your voice heard. 

I hope this can be helpful, if there's anything else I can do for you, please feel free to reply.

As much as people keep asking Fitbit for features have they actually implemented a single one on the last year?

I think the United States will have universal healthcare before FitBit makes an iOS widget.

@waynezwor1d -

I can personally attest to FitBit incorporating a Feature Suggestion in the last year. My Daily Nutrients Summary Feature Suggestion request has been on the Food Log page since late June/early July.

Nope, even simple features like UTF8 (unicode support for non-latin countries)

They try to manage FitBit software “developers way” - voting for features and submitting ideas. But... even in developers community ppl don’t give a single f... to do so. Anyhow, they still selling and we’re still buying, also Google bought Fitbit, so they are doing well and soon we will get android widget on iOS 😂

For as long as dark mode has been out on IOS & they still haven’t implemented that I think we’ll be waiting a while for a widget. Hopefully with google at the helm things will pick up

I think it will be ugly as android.--

Just got an iPhone 14 and would love a FitBit Widget for tracking my steps.

Coming up to 5 years now and still no widget. It’s incredible a company raking in so much money can’t be bothered to do this. It a genuine and sensible request. I think a change of fitness ecosystem is in order…

There probably will never be one because Fitbit is a direct competitor or Apple. Owned by Google. And Apple wants you to use their watch. Just like how the only reason apple and android users can’t text high quality photos and videos to each other is because Apple won’t allow it. They want to keep a stronghold on their users so they never leave their ecosystem and force others into it. 

I moved from droid to iPhone a few Months ago and got to say I regret it. I miss much more than just my Fitbit Widget.

there is a workaround if you want to pay for another 3rd party app to sync your data into Applefitness . There’s a couple. But from what I’ve seen you either have to do it manually (which defeats the purpose in my opinion) or you can pay to have it auto sync.

Almost 5 years later and there still isn’t a widget?
