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

What brands did you used to love but now hate because of enshittification?

Yes! I was an early adopter and had Fitbit One, Fitbit Ultra as body clips and they worked so well. Charge 4 had more features than Charge 6 so when my charge 4's band broke in a way that I couldn't repair or replace it, I switched to Garmin.

Is Fitbit still going away?

How long ago did you get it? I had a Charge 6 basically die in just over a year and at that point vowed no more Fitbit devices.

About to smash this charge 6 into a million pieces and mail it to Fitbit.

I have to constantly remove, uninstall, re-pair, re- setup this thing once a month. And usually have to mess with it for hours to get into work again EVERY SINGLE TIME I CHARGE IT.

Wtf is with this garbage???

All I want to do is track my sleep. But noooooo.

My old versa was near bulletproof. (

A “visual doorbell” to get my partners attention when he’s locked in with noise canceling headphones

Commenting on this idea cause I love it but just wanted to warn that myself and a few other people I know have been having issues with the cheaper Fitbits (charge 6 I think is the version I have) not being consistent with wether it’s gonna send notifications through or not so if this is the decision

Is Fitbit still worth buying?

I'm very late to the party. But I'm looking at getting a Charge 6. Though there's been so many bad reviews on here and the looming rumors of google phasing out Fitbit altogether, has me wondering if it's too late to invest in a Fitbit product now. Alternatively, I'm also looking at Xiaomi Smart Ban

Seriously what the hell is wrong with Google

I think they have no digital hygiene or are outsourcing code. Outsourcing = Just grab the current file and send it to India for a few changes at the cheapest cost possible. No tools for testing and probably no debugging. Possibly sent a bad base file too. Garbage digital hygiene = everyone has their

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
