Dominant Hand Setting

ANSWERED
Replies are disabled for this topic. Start a new one or visit our Help Center.

I'm trying to decide what setting I should set for hand dominance.

 

I wear my fitbit on my left wrist.

I'm left-handed (ie write with my left hand). 

I eat with my left hand.

However...

I throw with my right hand.

I use the mouse with my right hand.

 

Does the setting really matter?

@SunsetRunner I'm ambidextrous as well. I have set my Blaze to non-dominant because I always lose steps and trying to have it match my Fitbit One which I wear as well.

 

I tested two Blazes,  one on each wrist.  After a day they were within 1%, so for me I'm happy with non-dominant.

 

Fitbit replaced the first Blaze because of a scratched screen.and some chipping, hence two Blazes.

I'm wroth you, i eat and write with my left, throw as a righty. Then do everything else as a right hander. That is as long as it is not easier or more convenient to do with the left. At spiel I'll Eben food myself soothing hands on the calculator keuboard.
When i got my arm unit i put it on a seperate account, so o could compare it with the One, that's on tje waist. I tried both arms with both settings, but dont like watches on the right arm, and found non-dom seams to stay closer to the Onr.

Hello @SunsetRunner it's great to have you here! 🙂 I noticed you got some great advise from @Colinm39 and @Rich_Laue on what hand did you decide to wear your tracker?
