- [R4] Google Health (Fitbit) Google Health Ruined a Great Fitbit: For years my Fitbit Inspire 3 delivered accurate sleep tracking and reliable vitals. Then Google took over, and it went downhill fast. The Google Health app misses readings and skips recordings every single day. I tried everything, restarting my iPhone, deleting and reinstalling the app, all the textbook fixes. Nothing worked. The app populates less than half
- [R40] Google Health (Fitbit) Fitbit app was better: The Fitbit app was great, but the Google Health app feels like a complete downgrade. The previous app made it easy to track my food, saved my data, and remembered frequently logged items. This app doesn’t seem to save added foods or common items I regularly log, making food tracking unnecessarily frustrating. As other users have mentioned, the app is not intuitive and is ve
- [R1] Google Health (Fitbit) Update makes it worse: Syncing with the Fitbit Charge 6 watch and my iPhone 13 is unbelievably bad. It used to work quite well before the latest update. How could something that worked so well now work so poorly? Was there no testing? Hope it gets fixed ASAP. ALSO, why does it take so taps to record my current weight? It seems it could be done in fewer steps as I’m thinking most users will b
- [R110] Google Chrome Best browser : Fast, Reliable, and Easy-to-Use Browser: ★★★★★ Google Chrome is fast, reliable, and easy to use. Pages load quickly, syncing across devices works seamlessly, and the interface is clean and user-friendly. The wide range of extensions makes browsing even more productive. I’ve used it for years and it continues to be my preferred browser for both work and personal use. Highly recommen
- [R37] Google Health (Fitbit) Worst App Ever: Google Health is such a downgrade from the Fitbit app! The Fitbit app was nice and streamline. Google Health is clunky. I have to swipe through multiple pages just to log water intake. Also, I don’t get texts to my watch anymore either. Very disappointing. I was going to wait until my Fitbit died but will probably get a new device sooner rather than later!
- [R42] Google Health (Fitbit) Worst health app ever! Bring back Fitbit design: Google Health DISASTER!! The entire Google team behind this app should be FIRED! The old Fitbit app was excellent and held years worth of my data, now I’m lucky if I can see one month. The user interface and data sets were clean and easily readable. Now, it’s a gobble of BS AI fake coaching, words, words, more words and looks like it was designed by
- [R80] Google Chrome User friendly: I like it because it is user friendly
- [R29] Google Health (Fitbit) Not syncing: This rating can change as long as the app changes. Doesn’t sync anymore to my Fitbit. So slow and laggy
- [R39] Google Health (Fitbit) Garbage Transition from Fitbit: Why can’t I look at a metric and see what I did yesterday or historically? Why is it so hard to look at what I did yesterday? Why do only “activities” count? The Fitbit app was fine. Adequate. At least I could see the metrics I wanted to see which is why i bought the watch in the first place. This google health update is absolute TRASH. Seriously upset this app is b
- [R91] Google Chrome Since last app update it crashes/freezes on iPads: Since last app update it crashes/freezes on iPads. Doesn’t work on iPadOS 26.4.2 nor iPadOS 26.5. The Software Developers need to fix this urgently.
- [R106] Google Chrome Fast and easy!: Haven’t came across in ‘bugs’ yet, been using it forever.
- [R51] Google Chrome Annoying review requests.: Keeps asking me to review the app, which is annoying so one star.
- [R46] Google Health (Fitbit) Google Made This App Suck and You Should Feel Bad: Had a Fitbit for over 10 years and this acquisition is so bad it’s made me loathe Google now. What a masterclass in taking something good and absolutely destroying it. Did the higher ups do any real research before going forward with this abomination? The AI prompts are garbage and no one asked for it, the interface is busy and ugly to look at- ho
- [R60] Google Chrome UPDATE ISSUES: Struggles to update when neededb
- [R92] Google Chrome Amazing but a problem: So its fine but the websites on it are really bad because i went onto a website but then it just kept on giving me ads. Idk if its google chromes fault or the webstites but if it isnt your fault then ill give you a ⭐⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ So yeah!
