Fitbit Badge List

I’ve had most of the fitness trackers over the years, from the Nike FuelBand to the Fitbit to the Apple Watch to the Adidas MiCoach to the Pebble to the Withings. And the badges, trophies, etc are one of my favorite parts of these devices. The FitBit pretty much has the most badges of any device currently on the market, although they’ve changed a little over time. I do wish that I could see these in the Fitbit app easily, but instead I use this link to access them: http://www.fitbit.com/badges/all

You can show your badges to others. To do so, log into the dashboard and click on the gear icon in the upper right corner of the screen. Then click on the Settings menu and select Privacy. From here you can choose to display the badges you have to others.

Steps

Daily step maximum badges awarded at 5,000, 10,000, 15,000, 20,000, 25,000, 30,000, 35,000, 40,000, 45,000 and 50,000 steps (guessing if anyone didn’t die going above that it would continue on in increments of 5,000)
