How has Fitbit been killed?

TL:DR they shut down the far more powerful web app to force everyone into the phone app which is buggy as heck and missing many features compared to the web app

I'm curious about this too. I really don't like the material redesign of the app but it didn't kill fitbit for me.

I never had it before the redesign, so I can't comment on that. I will say that I know they ditched the coach guided programs, which seems like a terrible change, and the main reason I'm not keeping Premium. But it's still a very useful fitness tracker.
