On Android you cant rotate the display to landscape mode to interact with heart rate data. You can on iOS. It did work on Android but was broken during an update around 6 months ago.
Are there really no plans to fix this? I was going to upgrade to an Ionic but if android interface is not being maintained to at least keep basic functions like this; I'm not sure.

Hi, @laberet! You don't get a landscape graph, but you can still interact with the graph in portrait mode.

I'm recovering from an infection that damaged my heart. I use my fitbit to extract heart rate data and graph bradycardia episodes. When, how many, how low, etc. The inability to rotate the graph to landscape on android makes the data very difficult to read. It also does not allow you glide over a point to see the readings. you have to stab at the line and do a finger double click on my Galaxy S8 to coax it in to telling you what the reading is.
Here is what it looks like on the android app.
Here is what the same day looks like on the iphone app.

@laberet Try looking at it on the fitbit.com dashboard (click 'Dashboard' near top left of this page). On the wide graph, select Daily and Heart Rate. You can see detail on the graph and see readings as you drag the cursor over the graph.
