Heart Rate Monitor

[project]

Is it possible to set a Target Heart Rate and a Maximum Heart Rate for workouts?  It would be a nice feature to have an alarm for when I've reached my target heart rate during a workout and a different alarm if I'm at my maxium heart rate.

Hi @project - You can adjust your heart rate zones in the Account Setting in the phone app. I don't believe that you can set alarms however. You may want to add a Feature Request - https://community.fitbit.com/t5/Feature-Requests/idb-p/features

Thank you! I finally found the settings under Account >Settings>Heart Rate Zones.

One reason I love fitbit vs "others" is the heart rate function.  I know they say it doesnt work but my cardiologist and I tested it.  Good enough for her and good enough for me.   When I'm on treadmill/aerobics at home I have my phone showing fit bit app with heart rate to show if I'm under or above my desired rate.  I know it shows on my charge 2 but 2 taps doesnt always show up and bouncing doesn't help either so I use my phone app.  When I go outside I am really screwed because I have no way of knowing if I am off or on without stopping to check how I'm doing.  Does anyone have any shortcuts to get through this?  It would be so nice if fitbit updated this to beep me or vibrate or something to let me know if I'm too high or too low.
