-
Matthew Halmshaw (@matthewhalmshaw) reported@FitbitSupport Sent you a DM. EE have done diagnostics on it and says its a battery fault which needs replacing. Hope you can help. Less than a year old
-
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.

Beccybecster (@beccybecster) reported@RJ5400 @FitbitSupport I have the exact same issue, my app is up to date and ditto about reboot - since yesterday
-
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.
-
@MikeBeach (@mike123qwe) reportedThe Charge 6 hardware is fine. The problem is the new Google Health app. What used to take one swipe now takes multiple taps and screens. I’ve already added a Garmin Vivosmart 5 to my Amazon cart—even though I just bought a Charge 6. Please bring back the classic Fitbit dashboard or give users a choice. To my Followers-if you agree RP! @fitbit @GoogleHealth @madebygoogle
-
Paul DeKraker (@DeKrakhead) reportedHey @Google @FitbitSupport do you ever plan to fix the issue with supervised Google accounts no longer being able to login to the Fitbit app? My son really liked his versa, but it becomes pretty worthless if you can't sync and the time starts to drift.
-
LebowskiAchiever (@VPapillon7) reported@awalmartparking @FitbitSupport @googlehealth When Google changed so much of the original Fitbit app i just switched to an apple watch, which doesnt mean their app is better its trash but at least its synced to my phone :/ RIP FitBit app
-
🌈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

Tech Ironic (@techironic11) reported@googlehealth I want it so bad 😭 @FitbitSupport
-
ScotsVix 🦋🦋🦋 (@Scotsvix) reported@FitbitSupport hi. I’m unable to sign in. Notification in the app says you’ve sent a reset password. Nothing received. All folders in my email account checked.
-
Pete Richardson (@PeteRichardson7) reportedQuelle surprise! My @FitbitSupport is just past the 2 year warranty period and it suddenly crashes and i can’t now see the screen! This is the third one i have had this happen with 🤯🔫 @googlehealth **** product you’ve bought when it doesn’t last. I’ve bought 3 in 6 years and won’t be buying any more! Time for a new more durable fitness tracker. #fitbitisshit Don’t waste your money

jiminiowa (@jimmyd108) reported@FitbitSupport loving the new app. But I can’t locate where to input weight & fat percentage. Help!
-
Smurf (@SmurfMurp) reported@googlehealth @FitbitSupport Hi its working again now, without any interaction or changes from me, so it looks like it was a server issue at your side.
-
Sanjay D (@sanjayk0303) reported@FitbitSupport I have done it but it did not work, i have done the factory reset to resolve the issue, but now it is not getting on, screen completely dead. kindly assist me
-
Matthew Halmshaw (@matthewhalmshaw) reported@FitbitSupport Hi guys. I'll contact @EE too but but the battery life has taken a real nose dive the last few weeks. Perfectly fine for 8 months or so and now the battery life is really bad

A.K.D. (@avasi01) reportedCan’t set up my new Fitbit Air — password reset broken + can’t migrate my Fitbit account to Google. Need help please @GoogleHealth @fitbitsupport #FitbitAir #CustomerSupport

Victoria Gleeson (@LadyGus) reported@FitbitSupport hello, I purchased a new sense 2 this week and I have tried all the troubleshooting ways to get WhatsApp notifications to come through and I’m having no luck. There is nothing there under apps in notifications to allow me to select WhatsApp. Can you help please?

mege (@mege69) reported@FitbitSupport Since Fitbit changed to google health my husbands Sp02 has not registered - have taken app of and restore it still not working what can I do !!!
-
PUT ME ON THE FRIGATE 🫡 (@riva_HH) reported@rugbyballs8 @FitbitSupport @googlehealth The nonsense started when they did away with the weekly/weekend step challenges and now forcing us on to the google health app is an abject **** show
-
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?

Beccybecster (@beccybecster) reported@RJ5400 @FitbitSupport I have the exact same issue, my app is up to date and ditto about reboot - since yesterday
-
Jake (@rugbyballs8) reported@FitbitSupport Absolutely terrible. The old app was so much better. I did not sign up for this. To make matters worse it just drains my phone. I can't believe I bought a Fitbit two days before the changeover.
-
Mandeep B 🚢 (@mandeepmusings) reported@BessentsFist @Google @FitbitSupport The worst app . They destroyed Fitbit app which I loved and logged food almost daily for 5+ years. Use Bevel , it is way better than the new garbage app
-
Mikko Tuomela (@mikkotuomela) reported@FitbitSupport Hello. I don't see anything relevant to this issue on that page. It is only about connecting them, not troubleshooting after they have been connected. What would be great is if FitBit would tell during exercise whether it is recording properly or not.

christine (@yankeegirl51680) reportedNeed a new watch asap 🤬 I hate the new google app with Fitbit. When u have health issues and need information more accessible and u make it garbage for those of us already suffering @FitbitSupport

Plan 9 From Outer Space (@edwoodplan9) reported@FitbitSupport my charge 6 will not sync to iPhone. tried all the “fixes”. Rebooted Charge 6. Uninstalled and reinstalled app. Turned phone off. When Charge 6 does appear in Bluetooth menu it’s missing info symbol that tells it to forget this device. Pls help.
-
Mark Pearce (@markyp46) reportedHi @FitbitSupport I’ve recently purchased a sense 2 and connected to my I phone 16, however I’m unable to receive notifications from apps such as WhatsApp, I’ve checked all the basics, is there a fix?
-
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?
