-
Shaun Thomas (@BonesMoses) reportedI'm about to throw my @fitbit Charge 5 in the trash. Some time after Google took over, the App just launches to a blank screen half the time until I reinstall or clear cache/data. Are there any good alternatives I should consider?
-
Even Dinsdale was frightened of Doug (@zamoose) reportedAttempting to add my 13yo's Christmas present @FitbitSupport to the kids' iPad has been a Kafkaesque nightmare, with no end in sight. It's almost beyond parody.
-
Anita Dreenk (@AnitaDreenk) reported@fitbit STILL not working to log my food. No matter. I have now canceled my premium account and will now track my food on myfitnssspal. Thank you for helping me to continue cutting expenditures in this down economy, #fitbit!
-
Sandra 💙 (@Santhebeach) reportedDon’t buy a Fitbit @FitbitSupport They don’t last. Their support is useless. Will send you round in circles rather than fix the problem!!!
-
𝔸𝕁 𝕆𝕟 𝕋𝕙𝕖 ℝ𝕠𝕒𝕕 🏍💨🤙🏻😎 (@AJ_OnTheRoad) reported@FitbitSupport Trying to lodge a (late) Ionic recall for refund & keep getting passed from Customer Services to the Recall Dept & back again as neither can fix the other ones issues. There is an impacted Ionic on my account, I provide the ref number, then says it's not connected.
-
Dale Kristina Valiukas (@dkvaliukas) reported@ManchesterBlond @FitbitSupport I get the same problem. I go to settings to apps, select fitbit, force stop it, and reopen it again. See if that works.
-
John Rooney (@John_Rooney) reported@FitbitSupport my Charge 6 won’t synch. I tried disconnecting it from the app and now it won’t reconnect. Help!
-
Dale Kristina Valiukas (@dkvaliukas) reported@FitbitSupport How come I can't even send you a private message. Im a paid subscriber, and why is it i either wake up with a blank screen and I never get my spo2 anymore. Please fix this problem, and next time, please inform me when you're taking money out of my account (premium)
-
Jason Gaylord (@jgaylord) reportedTech companies like @Google and @Fitbit still have the same problem with navigating COPPA and allowing kids to have access to devices. As a result, parents have to opt to lying about ages or not using the devices. Guess which they choose? #coppa #smartdevice
-
Dr. Ian Knopke (@ekponk) reported@fitbit @SonoranRed Just get a Garmin. The Ionic was so terrible I switched and found Garmin's tech was way more accurate on every metric
-
Justin (@crossbosox) reported@PosingforPink @fitbit @FitbitSupport For sure. I’ve done all the troubleshooting with no fix.

Kerry Patricia (@Kerry_Patricia) reportedKinda glad to see I'm not alone with my #fitbit app not working again... definitely disappointed that this seems to be the new normal for this product... @fitbit @FitbitSupport
-
Dale Kristina Valiukas (@dkvaliukas) reported@FitbitSupport How come I can't send you a message. My spo2 hasn't been working for days, and I have to keep force stopping the app because I get a blank page in the morning and have to start it back up. Im a paid subscriber, and I shouldn't have these problems. Help
-
Kurtis Stirling ⚡🏴 🇳🇿 (@Kurtis_NZ) reported@FitbitSupport why ******** is it so hard to see my VO2 Max? Just show me my data consistently instead of hiding it if I didn't meet your list of behavioural criteria to show it, absolute **** UX
-
Susan (@susanelizabet28) reportedApparently @FitbitSupport can't keep their app running. Widespread outage. Can't log food. Makes @Google even more annoying to those of us that have had fitbit for years. Unreliable. Out since midday yesterday. No status updates from fitbit/google.
-

Joanna 🩶 (@joanna19x0) reportedMy Fitbit versa 2 is not syncing, I’ve tried everything. Reinstalling the app, removing the device and resubmitting it on the app and it still is not working! I also can’t get the time to sync so it is 10 minutes delayed @FitbitSupport
-
John OConnor (@jeoconnor56) reported@fitbitsupport, my android fitbit app (version 4.6) doesn't have the option to move my data to Google, as shown in your online help page. How can I move my fitbit data to Google? Thank you.
-
🇺🇸BEARDO🇺🇸 (@Ranchwater12) reported@FitbitSupport Nobody asked you! Bad business plan. I'm going to get rid of this thing for sure!
-

sentient ball of stardust (@WhatTheMrsHeck) reported@fitbit fix the glitch where the screen wake keeps auto selecting button and motion when I only want button on. Its making me want to toss this thing waking me up in the middle of the night flashing me in the eyes, and the battery is dying like crazy. Husband and I both are mad
-
🌈Joe Lenington🏳️🌈 (@joelenington) reported@FitbitSupport I know that. But after the March update to my Pixel watch 4 Fitbit doesn't count steps when I'm on the elliptical (it did before the March update). I know that @Google also fixed the problem but it's not fixed for me! I've done so many troubleshooting and nothing. I sent the DM
-
Selim Oz (@selim_oz) reported@FitbitSupport We’ve been through this, you guys can’t even explain how my two year old Sense 2 turned into a brick a day after I installed the update. It’s not a free watch, I paid $200 two years ago. I think the update had malware in there because Fitbit sales slowed down.
