A question for ex fitbiters, what do you miss about Fitbit and do you regret moving on to Apple watch and leaving Fitbit behind?

Sleep tracking and the interface
First thing in my mind is the battery. My son has a five year old fitbit charge 3 and he says the battery lasts him a full week on one charge. My S6 needs to be charged virtually daily.
The heart rate monitoring in fitbit is a lot better because it’s continuous and you get this nice easy to read graph in the app. Apple watches don’t read your heart rate every second and the apple health app gives you a bunch of vertical lines which don’t give precise data.
Apple has great sleep tracking.
Literally does not.
How so? The only thing that I don’t like is you have to physically put it in sleep mode to track. If it would automatically track without having to be in a focus it would be great.
It’s not even about it not auto detecting. The sleep tracking is completely inaccurate. My watch has bedtime mode automatically set at a certain time. Well I just so happen to be working 3rd shift. I’m busting my butt during this shift and it was quite literally one of the busiest shifts I had… it gave me a ton of sleep data but ALSO had all my stand rings closed (which it should cause I was on my feet the whole time) but how can I be sleep AND closing my rings? I literally was never sleep.
Point is, as long as your watch is in sleep focus… it tracks anything you’re doing as sleep. Once I learned that I genuinely stopped wearing it to bed in its entirety.
That’s simply not true
It quite literally is.
You can have other apps that’ll do it for you( which is what I do but is not the same as built in)
Exactly, if other apps can make the watch auto detect sleep, then apple should be able to make it auto detect as standard
I thought Apple does automatically detect as long as you sleep 4 hours?
I use Sleepwatch app. Just going by score of how I feel when I wake up, I would say Fitbit is closer. There are also times I wake up for 5-10 minutes during the night. Fitbit picks it up, Apple Watch does not.
