The Fitbit Charge 6 is a couple years old now, but it remains our favorite fitness tracker for most people, and Google’s still updating the thing regularly. As spotted by Android Authority, a new update announced today brings with it a handful of new clock faces and then some.
In a post on the Fitbit Community forum, Fitbit shared that the Fitbit Charge 6 is getting three additional clock faces. There’s the stats-heavy Momentum, which displays steps, distance walked, heart rate, and more all at once; an abstract digital face called Geometric; and an understated analog-style face called Axira.

The update also brings with it enhanced connectivity with gym equipment. The Charge 6 is able to communicate with treadmills, exercise bikes, and the like to share your heart rate in real time. Fitbit says the Charge 6 is now able to connect to “a wider variety of equipment.” The post doesn’t go into detail about which additional devices are now supported.
New faces, more connectivity, and some bug fixes
Fitbit’s also announced that the update includes bug fixes for several Fitbit models, including the Charge 6, Inspire 3, Sense 2, and Versa 4. Only the Charge 6 seems to have received the new clock faces and exercise equipment update, however.
This is all available now, so if you’ve got a Charge 6, be sure to check for updates.
