Heart rate reading not working properly

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

Been having a problem where my blaze seems no longer able to read my heart rate. If I have it set to auto mode it seems to not think it is on my wrist and turns the lights off. I tried cleaning the sensor with alcohol and a cloth, and even shaved the hair of my wrist. Sometimes it works on the back of my wrist in the middle when held evenly and every now and then it will pop up for a moment when wearing normally, I think shaving helped, but I didn't need to in tbe past. Is there a way to polish the sensor or maybe it's going bad? Anyone have any Suggestions? Thanks

Thanks, I've tried all that. From what I can gather it gets my heart rate pretty consistently when set to on, but almost never when on auto. It's great that it still works but now my battery hardly lasts longer than a day, which is pretty inconvenient. Should I contact support?

My Fitbit is also stuck on 70. I've tried restarting changing bands. This is the second Blaze I've had is it going bad also. Also my sleep shows 8 hours every night regardless of when I go to bed
