Dominant Hand Setting

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

Hi - trying to find which hand my fitbit is set to as the dominant hand. I see in settings where you set whether your tracker is on your dominant vs non-dominant hand, but nowhere can i find which hand is considered dominant (right or left).  Have looked thru all profile settings and don't see that anywhere.  Assume it was somewhere in the original set-up, but can't find it anywhere now.  Anyone know?

@BisbeeFIt  Are you left handed or right handed?  I am left handed, so my dominant hand is my left.

I am right handed and my tracker is set to use my non-dominant hand (I wear my tracker on my left).  I'm trying to check that my profile is indeed set-up for right hand dominance.  Reason I want to check it is that my new Blaze is way off on tracking steps.

Hi bisbeeflt. 

 

I had had the same problem but just found it.

from your account page, click on upper left area (pic of your Blaze watch) and you'll see it

There is no right hand or left hand setting. It's dominant or non dominant, which you appear to have set properly. It's well known that the blaze likes arm movement for tracking steps. You can be walking and holding something steady in your fitbit hand and be missing steps. Also, I personally found that I get the most accurate results in all catagories by wearing the band rather snug.
