Does anyone still love their fitbit?

As someone who has used fitbit for almost a decade and bought the Charge 6 (after my 3, 4 & 5 died), I'm genuinely curious if there are people who still love their fitbit? Honestly the only reason I'm still using it is cause I don't want to lose the years of data on the app.

Looking at this subred

My EDC - All pretty standard and cliché

Cat S22 Flip - just essential apps, debloated and kinda de-googled.

GPD mini PC - day to day browsing, YouTube, ect.

Boox Palma - reading and manga.

Moleskine notebook.

Nothing Ear (a).

Koss porta pros - just incase my earphones die, not happened yet but better to be safe than sorry.

Is the Charge 6 still worth buying?

Used to have a Fitbit Charge 4 and absolutely loved it. After mine broke (around 2022) I haven’t used any fitness tracker since and I’d like to get one again. I only found out about Google discontinuing Fitbits after already placing an order for the Charge 6 (though it hasn’t shipped yet, I can stil

Is anyone happy with the ring?

This is my first smart ring, so I can't compare it to others. I like the hardware; I find it lightweight, elegant, comfortable. The software and firmware clearly need work (most notably on the connection issues, but also general refinement and features, battery life), though those are much easier to

Charge 6, one year later - sorely disappointed. Utterly useless and unreliable.

I got a Charge 6 last year because it appeared to hit the sweet spot of a fitness tracker that had a few of the key smart watch features (clock, timer, notifications, google pay, etc) while also having heart rate and (importantly) wasn’t gigantic.

Immediately after purchasing it, I was disappointe

Charge 6 won't sync

I've already tried uninstalling the app, factory resetting my watch, clearing cache, rebooting my phone, turning on/off Bluetooth, etc. Nothing works.

It's been like this for a couple weeks where the app won't sync with the watch. I'll try to force it to sync by pulling down on the screen, but just

Did Google make Fitbit much, much much worse?

Two years ago I had a Fitbit Charge, which I really liked. I then began using an Apple device, but I just got a Charge 6 as a gift.

Okay. [FEEL FREE TO SKIM OR SKIP THIS INCREDIBLY BORING PARAGRAPH] I had to spend roughy 90 minutes last night with three different customer services futilely trying t

Charge 6 is losing its mind

For the past 6 months, my Charge 6 is not syncing sleep score with my watch unless I manually sync it about 8 times. HR data is questionable and won’t display half the time. The annoyance level is off the charts. Owned a fitbit for over 12 years. This may be the end.

Brutal syncing problems with charge 6

In the beginning, I thought I was one of the lucky ones, reading about other people's problems with their watches not syncing with the app, but now I'm firmly in the club. My app hasn't been able to sync for three days! The last data I can see was on Wednesday, and only about half of that day is dis

New to FitBit UI/UX and I am so not impressed at all.

So the charge 6 isn't actually a Google product. It shipped not long after Google bought Fitbit, but it was 100% a product that was basically complete when Google took ownership. All we've really gotten from Google so far is the Pixel Watch 1-4 and the watered down Versa and Sense refresh (which was
