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. (

What happened to my charge 6?
It was working fine last night, I charged it up to 100% yesterday afternoon. Today I couldn't get it to turn on, either by turning my wrist or pressing the buttons, so I put it on charge, and when i did I got this weird static screen. I think I bought my charge 6 secondhand from amazon, so im hoping

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

Has the calorie counting part of the app gone to 💩, is there a fix ?
It’s been hit or miss for awhile now. Which suck because that to me is FitBits best feature and what has kept me with the brand. I’ve said this before and I guess I’m saying it again, unless things get better, I’m likely doing either the Apple Watch or Garmin when my Charge 6 finally dies.

How do I stop this little symbol coming up on charge 6? Info in body text
This little symbol appears after a few seconds and then dissapears. Its annoying that it pops up. It doesn’t pop up when I have the fit bit app open but I don’t want to see it at all

Google Fitbit Air is about to launch with no screen and a big AI health push
Fitbit took away the desktop/browser app, which allowed data analysis on a large screen. Whoop still has that, and this advantage makes the subscription worth it. Right now, I'm wearing both Whoop and Charge 6 and making comparisons. It's SO MUCH easier to browse the heart rate data with Whoop and i

Aligning Calorie Intake with Fitbit Calories Burned
I have worn a Fitbit Charge 6 all day, everyday (except for charging) for around 60 weeks. I also exercise a lot, depending on the week it says my average calorie burn for the week is between 3.8k kcal to 4.1k calories per day, while my daily calorie intake is consistently 2k-2.2k. According to the

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

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
