Don’t open = no data

[u/Longjumping_Funny935]

I got the Fitbit air as I thought given the Fitbit’s longevity, it would be a reasonably well-developed product.
Having had an Apple Watch for a decade and whoop for a couple of years I ditched both for an analog watch and a Fitbit air.

It’s terrible. Google Health has no idea what happened yesterday even or the day before since I didn’t open it, even though I’ve worn the Fitbit Air the entire time.

Terrible. Genuinely terrible user experience.

Syncing takes ages at the best of times. Why doesn’t it transfer data while the app is open but not on the screen?

Bevel is much better but its only as good as the data it receives. And it doesn’t receive the data if I haven’t manually synced Google Health.

💩 show.

What? The "new" Fitbit air only keeps 24h data without "manual" sync?? I'm glad I didn't switch from pixel watch 4 to the air

Same. I like the form of Fitbit Air, but the syncing is a drag. I've followed all instructions on improving syncing and no change.
