Live heart rate in Fitbit app from Pixel Watch 2

[TransAmDan]

I've recently changed from Garmin. Using the excessive bike with badly place heart rate sensors I used to rely on the Garmin app to display my heart rate to see it in zone.

The pixel watch 2 does display the heart rate fine, but hard to see my wrist when pedalling. 

Is there any way to display live heart rate data from the pixel watch 2 in an app on the phone? The phone is pixel pro 8.  Can see any option in the Fitbit app to do this. Happy to use another app for live heart rate info if there is one, so far not found one.

Thanks

Dan

Hello @TransAmDan and welcome to the Community.  I moved your post to the Android app forum, a better fit for your question.

The Fitbit app does not display live heart rate for the Pixel Watch 2, only the range for the day.  I also miss that feature, all my previous Fitbit devices had real time heart rate displayed in the app.

Hello @TransAmDan 

There's a feature request in the Product Feedback forum to Restore real time heart rate in the Fitbit app (<-- click link) where you can vote and comment. 

Many of us would like to see this feature returned to the Fitbit app. Hopefully, enough of us will vote in favor of this so it will be considered for a future update.

Thanks ever so much for the friendly reply. I wasn't aware the feature was present a while back and removed on a recent update. Hopefully it will come back. I followed the link and voted.

I think it depends on what device you're wearing, I don't get live readings wearing my Pixel Watch 2, but I do get them wearing my Charge 5.
