FitBit Badge List: How Many Badges Do You Have? Find Out Here!



Love the whole badge system, really gives an extra level of encouragement and aspiration.Please post these emails in kilograms and kilometres, the old measurements are no longer relevant in the modern world.Really looking forward to the new Fitbit smartwatch too, need to upgrade my Surge.


Could there be more floor badges added as I completed Satellite a long time ago and approaching 50,000 floors and would like to aim for the Moon, however realize that this is likely to be 126,139,200 floors. (based on floor being 10ft and Moon 238,900 miles away). Maybe a radial pie chart around the badge would allow you to see how close you are at achieving it with % completed




FitBit Badge List




More badges are long overdue. I sure hope someone is going to create more dynamic and creative badges that get updated more regularly. Half this list excludes some the trackers bc of the lack of the stair tracking.


Thank you for defining the badges. I really appreciate having a specific goal to attain. I love my Fitbit!!!!!! I thought 12,000 steps in one day was a real achievement. I had no idea that people step tens of thousands times more than that in one day. Good to know! Something else to try for reach for. Again, thanks!


No swimming badges; is, 14 miles around Amelia Island, Florida, 90 miles from key west, Florida to Cuba; 124 miles across Gulf of Bahia, Mexico; and so on around the world (Long Island Sound, Straits of Juan De Fuchia, WA., English Channel, Baltic Sea, Mediterranean, et.). Us swimmers are feeling left out.


I upgraded to a newer model that has better features, except that my history of badges and competition has not come with it as yet since I do not know how to update that feature, if it is available. Any help out there?


According to Fitbit customer service there is no badge for 12,000 lifetime floors (on your list as UFO). The lifetime badges for floors are 8,000, then 14,000, then 20,000 floors. Your list shows 8,000 floors, then 12,000 floors, then 20,000 floors.


The Fitbit app has many badges you can acquire for reaching those daily and total walking milestones. These badges can turn your daily walks into a bit of a challenge and add a fun element as you try to unlock specific achievements.


Some are easy to reach. You may hit some of these fitness goals the first few times you use your pedometer. The Boat Shoe badge, for example, is for only walking 5000 steps. A goal that most people are likely to achieve the first time they use a pedometer.


But it does add a level of fun to a process that can sometimes be a bit dull. Even though I have run the NYC Marathon and hiked Yosemite in the past, I found myself looking forward to reaching the badges milestones. It was fun.


The folks at FitBIt have committed to making steady increases and adding more adventures over time. They have had FitBit adventure badges requests in the forums and are currently working on introducing new adventures.


The daily steps walked Fitbit achievements run the gamut from the easiest to some of the most difficult achievements. However, theoretically ever single badge could be obtained on a single day.


The first set of FitBit badges were all about what you could accomplish in a single day of steps. The next set of Fitbit badges are what you can accomplish over a lifetime of walking with your Fitbit pedometer. Keep at it long enough and you will reach all of these badge milestone goals sooner or later.


The numbers may not be gaudy, but walking up 100 levels is darn tough on the legs. This can also be a difficult achievement if you live in an area that is mostly flat as I do. Most of my badges for this section have come when I have been hiking on a vacation.


These cumulative climb badges, like the ones above, show a remarkable achievement. Walking climbs are not easy. To do them often enough and consistently enough to make 5,000, 10,000, 15,000 levels climbed is quite an achievement that anyone should be proud of.


Walking for charity is a cool option the folks at Fitbit added to their fitbit app. They donate a small amount of money to your favorite charities based on your step counts while participating in charity walks within the fitbit app system. It feels great to walk.. but it feels even better to be part of even a small amount of aid to those in need while doing so.


It's important to note that manually logged activities do not count toward Fitbit Badges, though. You earn these automatically just by wearing your Fitbit day to day. The weight-based badges, however, can only be earned by automatically syncing data over from the Fitbit Aria or Fitbit Aria 2 smart scales.


You can then click on 'Badges and Trophies' to take a look at what you've earned. You can then see a list of your top badges first and can scroll down to see more daily and lifetime badges you've snapped up.


Fitbit has said there are over 100 badges in total to unlock. It said that back in 2017, so that collection has grown since then. The company, every once in a while, will introduce more Badges for you to earn, so don't be surprised if you see something new pop up too.


As previously mentioned, these Badges are split into four categories. There are daily step goals, which are measured in steps, there are lifetime step goals, which are measured in miles, daily stair climb goals and lifetime climb goals. Finally, there are weight loss, challenge, and adventure badges.


The daily step badges start at 5,000 steps and go all the way up to 100,000 steps - which will take some doing. The lifetime distance badges start at 26 miles and go up to 12,430 miles. The daily floor badges start at 10 floors and go up to 700 floors. The lifetime floor badges start at 500 floors and go up to 35,000. Finally, the weight loss badges start with setting a weight loss goal and go up to losing 200lbs.


It's not totally clear whether these seemingly arbitrary numbers are unique in-jokes or references to the badge names. The Nile River, for instance, is 4,258 miles long. While the only 1,997 that we think could be related to the Taj Mahal is Señor Blues' 1997 song 'Taj Mahal'.


We know you want to know what the most difficult badges are to earn, and we can help you out with that. Fitbit officially lists all of the Fitbit badges here, and while we considered listing every single one, we've picked out some of the ones you'll have to put serious work in to unlock:


Along with hitting certain big digits, you'll also earn a badge for meeting a target weight or you've set a new weight goal. So there are plenty of badges here to earn on your way to getting into the kind of shape you'd like to be in.


Whether it's trying to step more than your fellow Fitbit-owning family members and friends or taking on others around the world to score the most weekly steps, these badges can be unlocked in the Challenges section of the Fitbit app. You can find them by heading to the Discover section.


First, you can make sure your Fitbit Badges are public and not private. To do that, head over to the companion app, navigate to 'Badges and Trophies' on your profile page and then click 'Privacy Settings'. Here, you can choose whether you want your badges visible to just you, your friends or all Fitbit users.


The other way to share is to, well, actually share them. To do this, simply click on the badge you want to share. Scroll down just a tad and you'll see a 'Share' option. Here, you'll get to add a comment to your badge. Click 'Next' and you'll be greeted with a couple of options.


Wow, a few months ago, but what a psyco. He said he earned a badge but has no idea what it means, and asks for accuracy of the fitbit. A guy kindly answers him and the poster goes nuts saying he knows all that and he has already verified how accurate it is. so Kevin why did you ask how accurate it was if you had already tested that to know? What possible response were you looking for that you would not have gone nuts over? How about wow Kevin Blue suede shoes badge, you are super amazing awesome, I wish I could be as good as you. As for the accuracy of it, I am sure that such an amazing person as yourself must already have done numerous scientific tests to determine this so I could offer no advice to someone as all encompasing awesome as you. What a privilage to having read your comment, my life is complete now


Have just used my Surge for the first time on this mornings slow run. Initially I was a bit disappointed when it took quite a while to Sync with my laptop. However when it did, and I started to browse all the details that were logged, I found the list of badges I had achieved this morning. First thought was, how the hell does the fitbit know I live by the shore and ran round the lighthouse this morning, I was mightily impressed, but soon realised what it actually meant. LOL. Obviously a bit of blood rush to the head. Anyway, quite impressed so far.


So you get a badge every 5k steps until you get to 80k, then it jumps to 10k step increments. I still see a ? at the end so it looks like there is a 100k, but I was wasted because I got the 90k while going for my daily climb (rainbow badge). Will try again with just a straight 10-12 hour jog/walk.


I received the Olympian Sandal badge (100,000 steps for the day), so it is indeed possible. I believe this is the highest daily step badge you can get.When running, you take more than one stride a second. Usually, it is between 2-3 strides per second. My highest step total was done over the course of a 100 mile trail ultramarathon a year ago.


Well I finished the year with 5773.67 lifetime miles on the fitbit and earned the Russian Railway badge (5772 miles). Next stop is Earth, which fitbit is telling me is 7,900 miles, not the 7,992 miles listed above.


Fitbit created over 100 badges to reward a wide range of accomplishments. These virtual badges are meant to recognize and help you celebrate even the tiniest of successes throughout your health journey, from steps walked to floors climbed to weight reduction. 2ff7e9595c
