-
Van Gogh's Left Ear 🇺🇸 (@DennisH27411488) reported@FitbitSupport why can't we sync with the new fitbit/Google marriage? Why has the "Sync now" button been removed? Why can't I find a help screen in the updated app? You took an easy to follow app and made ridiculously more difficult.

MV Balaji (@MuVeeBalaji) reported@GoogleIndia @FitbitSupport The forced Google Health app update completely broke the backend syncing on my Fitbit Sense in India. Sequential EDA scans fail to register. Paid for premium hardware, left with an unreliable device. How do I get a refund or fix?
-
Jemma Jonathan (@jemmajon) reported@googlehealth I’ll sadly no longer be a @FitbitSupport user after 15 years. This upgrade to #googlehealth is the worst thing I’ve ever seen 😩bring back #fitbit
-
Kelli Bachman (@kabachman) reported@FitbitSupport fitbit pixel is TRASH. After the last update it barely works. @fitbit
-
Stephanie McCrae (@smccrae13) reported@FitbitSupport is there a known issue with syncing at this time? I have hit all my active hours in my device but they are not showing in the app?
-
Sharing King (@barn_burn) reported@FitbitSupport hey my Fitbit air tracker I got yesterday doesn’t turn or vibrate I’ve trouble shoot and still not working been waiting for 27 minutes to speak with someone
-
Beccybecster (@beccybecster) reported@RJ5400 @FitbitSupport Tbh with this new issue and the news that Fitbit is changing to google fit I feel I may as well buy an Apple Watch!
-
Marty (@Marty_FTT) reported@actualstephen @Google @FitbitSupport This is why Garmin still wins on trust. They push firmware that adds features to 5-year-old watches instead of bricking them. Fitbit under Google has the worst update track record in wearables right now.
-
Anna Basic (@AnnaBasic2) reportedThe service from @FitbitSupport is horrific. I got a woman called Jona guessing from the Phillipines who has absolutely no idea what she is doing or how to behave to someone. I can’t synch my charge 6 to the disastrous new app. Never had an issue before. She even pretended she couldn’t hear me but then could when I said I want to speak to a manager then claimed she will call me straight back and hasn’t!!! What on earth? I pay good money Fitbit and premium membership.

America First Won Big! (@TooBigToRig101) reportedApparently the Fitbit watch I just bought is a piece of trash I connected my B0 app and apparently Google takes the information hides it from me and will not let me see it in the consolidated space I thought I purchased Which Apple watch is recommend! @FitbitSupport
-
Dawn 🍎 Special Education Teacher 🍎 Texas (@dfteach) reported@All186Am Mine completely died and nothing worked to get it back. Customer service walked me through each way to fix (after I had already tried each option solo) and nada. I hate having to buy a new one when my old one was perfectly fine until the migration.😡 @googlehealth @FitbitSupport
-
Kelly 🪩 (@itskellyyb) reportedFitbit’s broken after I just not long got it and I’m falling unwell can this holiday get any worse @FitbitSupport never buying a Fitbit again this is my 4th one
-
mherrsch9 (@mherrsch9) reported@FitbitSupport what was the purpose of changing your app to Google Health? Was it to make sure no matter what that no one with a watch could connect to the app again and force them to buy new watches? Bc wtf I have tried everything and nothing works
-
🌈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
-
Lex (@TheLexTimes) reportedHi @fitbit how does one report potential security incidents to the team? I’ve had intermittent issues with my Fitbit where it unpairs with my phone and displays an error message “no phone contact” and for a brief moment the health data becomes inaccurate.
-
Barry Weis (@bdweis) reportedHello @Garmin longtime @FitbitSupport customer here. Making the switch, don't let me down. #HeartWarrior #RunningForMyLife
-
Frankie G (@knarf74) reported@Google @FitbitSupport Why do you need to make my life difficult? Can you both stop pointing at each other and help? We can't upgrade his child account in Fitbit app under our family group? And he gets a 403 forbidden error on the Google store when he tries to login?

Claudia (@claudiainbombay) reported@dfteach @FitbitSupport @googlehealth The new stuff is miserable, no clear layout, clumsy, bad to read...I am considering going back to Garmin, their app is good...
-
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?
