No Option to Add Custom Groups to Mobile App

[Btina]

We recently launched a Fitbit Group at work to help encourage employee fitness and friendly competition. Unfortunately, we quickly discovered there is no option to add a custom group to the mobile app.  Is this on the roadmap? Participation would greatly increase if there were an easier way to view results without having to log into the online site.

Hello @Btina, have a warm welcome to the Fitbit Community, it's nice to see new faces around! 

At this moment it's not possible to add custom groups on the Fitbit app. However, I understand how important this is for you and many people, which is why I would like to recommend you to post your insight as a suggested idea where members of the Community can vote for it and add their comments, this is the best way to make your voice heard and get the attention from our development team. 

I hope this can be helpful, if there's anything else I can do for you, please keep me posted.

This is something all of my friends would love to access.  We have a group set up & it is a pain trying to explain to a person who is new to FitBit how much fun the community groups are for us.  Many of us live on cell phones & Safari is too tiny to explain how to navigate on the website, etc.  I think more FitBits could actually be sold if the options on the website were all offered with the mobile app.

Hello @DietDew, thanks for joining the conversation, it's a pleasure for me to welcome you to the Fitbit Community. 

I understand your concern about having the same functions available in the website in to the Fitbit app. Please keep in mind that our team updates the Fitbit app constantly and is always open to new suggestions. Having said that, I would like to encourage you to submit your insight as a suggested idea, detailed it as much as you can, this will be very helpful for our team as well. 

If there's anything else I can do for you, please feel free to reply.
