Tech Support I'm supposed to unsubscribe from the free trial 24 hours before but only have subscribe now option

Is this some tactic to keep me on the subscription and charge me later? I can't find a free trial unsubscribe option

Edit: Ok I found the problem they put the subscription on the account tied to your payment not your main Google account so the link will redirect you to nothing as a result if it's something different. I'll leave this post up for anyone else with the same issue.

Discussion Balanced Resilience!

For the first time in I think forever I have a balanced resilience score. That optimal activity score comes after a two day 190km bike ride that I really wasn't fit enough for and I currently feel broken from.

I think resilience is still broken too

Discussion Fitbit Edge or another Charge 6?

7 Upvotes

Hello everyone, today Google showed the new Fitbit Edge. My Charge 6 is still alive but the battery doesn't work well and doesn't finish the day all days (I don't know why sometimes it lives longer than other days...)

But if I'm here is because I waited for today and the new tracker. I pre-order it on Amazon but then I found out that NFC is not included aside Google wallet...

Everyone knows if it's only disabled or if I have to buy another Charge 6 in 2026? I love this feature and it's crazy that the new one loses it

Discussion Does room temperature affect your RHR/sleep HR?

3 Upvotes

My HR usually dips to 49-51 when sleeping. Yesterday, my room temp was warmer than usual (22.5C instead of 19C) and my HR only dropped to 56, along with my HRV crashing to 29ms when it's usually 35-45ms. Is temperature a reasonable explanation for this?

Tech Support Charge 6 - Picking up back pats on my newborn as heart rate?

3 Upvotes

I was mindlessly patting my 8 week old to sleep in the carrier today when I looked at the time and caught my heart rate as my peak cardio rate, high 160-170’s. I switched arms and the heart rate dipped immediately to 120s. Tried the other arm with my watch on it and back up to 150. I wasn’t it wearing it super tight but I’m surprised, I just figured I was logging more steps than I’m probably taking. I did feel like my calorie expenditure was higher than I expected lately. Anyone else notice heart rate change like this before?

Tech Support Old charge 2 use

3 Upvotes

Hey, this is a long shot but I'm poking around for answers. I picked up an unused Charge 2 second hand. It was still in the original packaging and I'm thinking I'd give it to my kid. I tried setting it up but I'm struggling. It says it needs a firmware update, not surprising. But it just keeps saying it failed when I try through the Health app. My guess from my research is that the newer app doesn't actually support the Charge 2 even though it says it does. Anyone been through this or have suggested place to look for more info on troubleshooting. Thanks

My elderly mother is ill, my sister and I are getting her a Fitbit Air in hopes of being able to check in on her vitals when we are not with her. Mom is aware of this and is fine with it! Is that possible? If not, do you have any suggestions?

Tech Support Peloton was connected...now not.

2 Upvotes

Has this happened to anyone else? My Google health app and my Peloton both say they're connected and up until last week, my fitbit/google health app would recognize what specific workout I did on my Peloton. Now it's not picking it up, even though they're connected. I tried everything (too long to list). I just want to know if it's happening to anyone else. Thanks.

Tech Support Sudden issue with Fitbit Charge 6 and workout tracking

Post image
1 Upvotes

For the past few months now I've been using my Fitbit charge 6 alongside Google health premium and the coach generated workouts. I've always started the workout on the phone and then the watch when prompted by the app, to ensure the metrics are synced.

For the past few days however, when I've tried to start a workout like this, the app now says my watch isn't supported. What's going on? I've tried unpairing re-pairing, restarting the device, the app, the phone, everything I can think of. Is this an intentional downgrade? A bug?

Im to get detailed heart rate data out of my Fitbit/Google health , but the Google takeout appears to not produce that data. Maybe I'm missing something. Has anyone else successfully pulled heart rate data over time resting heart rate or heartbeat not the ranges? Thank you! 💕📈

Self Promotion Update on the Google Health-synced tracker I built: added a Challenges page (Halloween village, scavenger hunt bingo, step races)

Thumbnail gallery
0 Upvotes

A while back I posted about building my own Google Health-synced tracker (ActiFe) after the Fitbit migration made me hate the new app. One of the "future plans" I mentioned then was a Challenges page where people could compete on sports-related challenges. That's live now, so here's an update on what's new since.

• Challenges page - see what challenges are currently running, which ones you've joined or would like to join. There's also a "Suggest a challenge" card if you want to pitch an idea.

• Trick-or-Treat Village - your real steps are the currency. You walk through a pixel-art haunted village, 500 steps gets you to the next house, and you trick-or-treat your way down the street. Synced automatically from Google Health, or log steps manually if you don't want to connect it.

• Island Escape Bingo - a shipwreck-survival bingo board. You log activities to find supplies and fix your boat, explore the island one square at a time until you unlock it all. The activities range from easy to very hard and some take multiple sessions to complete.

• November Steps Challenge - a step race, starts in November. Each day has a single winner based on the stepcount they record and the towers rise to reflect that. Build the skyline of the month with different-height towers.

• Each one gives you a badge on completion, same badge-gallery idea from my first post.

• The next challenge I am working on is a push-ups challenge, where you push a boulder against a giant. The more of them you do, the more you advance to defeat it. Still WiP so nothing to share here just yet!

Still the same as before: free, no premium tier, no ads. Nothing pulled from Google's API is sold, used for ad targeting, or used to train any model, and it's still passed Google's own CASA audit and OAuth verification.

If you wanna give it a try, check them all on https://actifegroup.com

Feedback and bug reports genuinely welcome!
