I asked support about why there were two subscriptions. In their infinite wisdom, support decided to cancel my account, delete the…

Cycle synching
I would love to see the feature of cycle synching accessible within the app. Women's bodies are on a 28 day cycle and inside that are 4 different phases, each one needing different support.

Muscle weight?
Can jogging add muscle therefore the scale is not moving? I lost 70 pounds. The weight was coming off steadily. Then a month ago I started jogging/running 3 miles every night. Since then my weight has stayed the same. I thought cardio makes you lose weight?

Not to mention that I HATE anything & everything related to Google. Thankfully my latest Fitbit device just died, & luckily I…
