A question for ex fitbiters, what do you miss about Fitbit and do you regret moving on to Apple watch and leaving Fitbit behind?

It takes Apple Watch like 4 apps and at least 1 paid apps or subscription to do what Fitbit does in 1 app with 1 optional subscription. Apple Watch info is split between the Health app, Fitness app, Apple Watch App, and any third party apps you use (which Apple Watch is reliant on to cover uses that Apple doesn’t natively cover like auto sleep tracking).

Also, Fitbit has the best sleep tracking out of all fitness trackers in the market. Apple Watch requires either a paid app for mediocre sleep tracking (via the Auto Sleep app) or you must sleep within your scheduled sleep hours with Sleep focus enabled for sleep tracking to work.

Also, requires daily charging on the Apple Watch while Fitbit lasts 7+ days depending on your model.

I'd hit up a garmin then or check out Superset Health. One app to show strain, recovery and sleep much like whoop https://www.supersethealth.com/?ref_id=EJ58S0ZTV

Agree that Fitbit has better sleep tracking than Apple and Garmin. But I miss Jawbone, poor quality hard product, but found the tracking algorithm to be best.
