      Same here, and so many things already have gone wrong. Will really have to think about if I go with another Fitbit, once I am in the market for a new one. Tech help useless, and it is some problem to try and post something in the community to look for help.
      Timer app is installed on app, but cannot get to timer on the actual device, only alarms...Then there is the disconnecting, reconnecting constantly, for exercise, not showing on the My Fitness Pal app. I would never pay for Premium, after this six months.

    I needed this video. I am a visual learner and you didn't speak so fast or scroll so fast I couldnt follow. New to the game, first smart watch now post covid with low 02 and fast pulse. Good for keeping track of POTS. Wish it had the BP instead of EKG? BP is more user friendly. Bought the aria scale. WAY more accurate then Smarter image! New subscriber. 💜
    Please wear a mask still. 2 years post very mild covid, I need this for health reasons. We are still in a pandemic.

    Excellent, much the most detailed review and set up video I've seen. Having upgraded from the Charge 2 I'd got a bit stuck setting up my Charge 5, but all sorted now. Except that I am in the UK and My watch insists on giving me the US calendar set up of Month/date, ggrhh.

  • @justinconnor7643

    I’m actually getting the Charge 5 and the aria air and selling my Apple Watch. I just like the Fitbit app a lot and love how everything is al right there and easy to see. I even want to track my food too. I don’t use most of the features with the Apple Watch anyway plus I’m the type that when something new comes out I want the updated version and i could see myself upgrading Fitbit each year but Apple Watch too pricey for that

    • @TinkerForward
      @TinkerForward  2 роки тому +1

      Fitbit definitely offers a lot of health tracking features at a cheaper price compared to the Apple Watch. I enjoy using the Fitbit app, the Fitbit dashboard is really helpful in showing me all my health stats, sleep score, and more. The only thing I'm not a big fan of with Fitbit is the Fitbit Premium subscription. When you are spending so much on a smart tracker / watch I feel they should be including those features with the product, not for an additional fee.

  • @loveisallthereis

    Had mine for 14 months and swam frequently. It stopped responding recently and Fitbit tried to back out of warranty. I had to refer the Australian Consumer Law to get a positive response.
    They're now replacing it.

    I am on the fence between Sense & Charge 5, love the larger face but pricing is an issue...your video is helping me decide to go with Charge 5...found it for 169 today so perhaps I'll take the dive into Charge 5...thanks

    • @TinkerForward
      @TinkerForward  2 роки тому +2

      The Sense has been out for a year now and the Charge 5 has just been released. You get so many of the features of the Sense watch on the Charge 5 at a cheaper price point, so for the price difference I think you're getting a tracker that you'll find very useful.

    I’ve just bought a charge 5 and got my son to try and set it up for me . Trouble i s he had to go home whilst it was updating. It says takes 40mins but mine was on for 26 hrs and still not up dated . What should I do ?

    • @AmethystWoman
      @AmethystWoman 2 роки тому

      I returned mine to best buy after trying to synch for 4 hrs, same issue as you, and I'm a techie! New one synched immediately the second I placed the fully charged Fitbit next to my phone - app already installed.
      I could have waited an hour in line for geek squad to help, and I hated to call it broken and end up in landfill but they wouldn't make any accommodations except stand in line. Sad if it wasn't really broken. Bad on Best Buy. Sad for disabled people and pitiful for geek squads desire to help the disabled with even a chair. (After eating my way up to the manager from the door guy who could care less, the manager did help me with just getting a chair but now I was 5th in line and it was going to be an hour+ wait. I'm not a Karen, I just needed a chair. They don't have electric carts. Yeah, sadly easier to return and call it dead. The replacement was not in stock. They overnighted it. Got it fine. Works great. Glad I returned it. In the end, it was a lemon. 🍋
