minus-squarecommandar@kbin.sociallinkfedilinkarrow-up19·1 year agoFitbit is owned by Google and has the same policy of not repairing cracked screens. I owned a Sense 2 and was in a bicycle crash. Screen hit the pavement and shattered. Absolutely no options from Fitibit/Google to get it repaired. I switched to Garmin and couldn’t be happier.
minus-squaresurewhynotlem@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·1 year agoHuh… I missed when Google bought them. That sucks. Might end up with a Garmin as well when this one dies. Does it integrate with other apps like chronometer?

minus-squarecommandar@kbin.sociallinkfedilinkarrow-up3·1 year agoThat’s a really great point and another reason I’ve really enjoyed the Garmin experience – Garmin doesn’t try to sell your own data back to you. Getting anything more than the absolute most basic of real time data out of a Fitbit requires an annual subscription. With Garmin, it’s just there.
