Hi, i'm having a really annoying issue. The heart rate data in an exercise doesn't match the time correctly, it's offset by 3hs and I'm in a timezone that is GMT-3.
My setup:
What i have/have done:
I'll leave an example of an exercise. We have in big bold numbers the average ppm of 159, and the graph visible never goes over 116, the zones do correspond to the graph.
In actuality, the big bold number is correct, but i checked and the graph (and zones) correspond to 3hs later. So we see in a same screen there is something wrong.
I'll leave some other screengrabs from the fitbit profile, settings in app and app versions too

Hello @zmaster_ar
By any chance, do you use VPN on your phone? I've read that users who use VPN have had issues with the time in their Fitbit app. When they disable VPN, that corrects the times in their Fitbit app.

No, I don't. Well, I occasionally do, but it's a VPN to my own home network. Shouldn't be an issue, right?

Hello @zmaster_ar
It sounds to me like having a VPN to your own home network shouldn't be a problem. Still, you could try disabling your VPN just to rule it out.

99% of the time it's not enabled. I only enable it occasionally when I'm out and I need to access something from my network. Usually not near any time when I'm exercising.

Hello @zmaster_ar
Have you looked at your profile information in the Fitbit app to confirm that your location is set correctly there?
