sweating and versa not keeping heart rate

Anyone else having the issue of the Versa not keeping accurate heart rate and status due to sweat under it while working out? Very frustrating as this is why i got the watch to keep me motivated so i can see my progress. I do keep it on the tightest link so it will not move during work out.

Same issue here. I like to see my heart rate when cycling, but it never reads. I rode an hour today, manually started my activity, and no HR read during the whole ride, so no active minutes calculated for the day either. Its frustrating.

Do u know if this is an issue being looked into. What's point of watch if it's not calculating fitness? Sent from Yahoo Mail on Android

I have the same issue. When I sweat during workouts (high intensity or normal), my Fitbit completely stops tracking my heart rate and shows as if I didn’t workout at all. This is extremely frustrating because this is the main reason I got the versa. I would love this to be resolved because I’m a very disappointed.

Same here. Once I start to sweat my heart rate stops reading accurately, it's about 30 percent under the actual. Today I ran at the highest intensity I have in about 10 years to the point of collapse and my heart rate read higher during my warm ups. It makes it impossible to get useful data.
