Hello Fitbit,  I complained earlier in the year about how you have removed the ‘calories left’ estimate (for sedentary diet plan) from the app dashboard and replaced it with a silly dial. However, I was still accessing this numerical value on the desktop dashboard via my phone browser. As of today you cannot access the desktop version via your phone. You are forced to go to the app! I don’t understand why you are making the app less and less user friendly and less and less useful. I have lost 2.5 stone in weight using this particular metric to plan my meals until midnight. If it is not restored I will have to look at another calorie counting app. I am so disappointed and frustrated.

Completely agree with you. And personally, I would be fine without the dashboard if the app actually had a correct accounting of the day's remaining calories! The new landing page for the dashboard confidently tells us to find all that data in the app! But we know it's not there. If Fitbit/Google was planning to phase out the dashboard for so long, why not make the necessary updates to the app FIRST before taking away our only avenue for accessing this critical information. I truly cannot wrap my brain around it.
