Hi, Why is it that my body fat % on my Fitbit scales reads 34.8% but on my partners scales it reads 19.8%???

How accurate is this reading from Fitbit scales?

My Aria 2 are trying to break me I swear!

 

The weight seems accurate but I've allegedly been consistently gaining just fat despite working out more and clearly starting to tone up. I've gone from 26.7% (which I already thought was a bit high) on Monday (2 days ago) to 28.6 today! I tried recalibration, batteries out, tried switching to lean mode, switching gender and weighing 5 times etc... All that's done is see me go from 27.3 to 28.6 in 50 minutes!!! Or put another way I've apparently put on 2.4lb of fat overnight 😩

 

Something is very wrong but there doesn't seem to be any way of fixing it
