Hi All

 

I have had a Fit Bit Blaze for a while now and Track my sleep myself and  colleague have used this to great effect but recently we have noticed a difference in trackers.

My Tracker is the Old Line Graph Tracker and his has changed to the Tracker that Tracks REM etc, We both have the current version Update can anyone suggest why there is a difference please as i find the REM Tracker more helpful.

Fitbit suggest there are a few reasons why sleep stages cannot be displayed:

 

"WHY DON'T I SEE SLEEP STAGES TODAY?

There are a few scenarios where you might see your sleep pattern (which shows your time asleep, restless, and awake) instead of sleep stages:

  • If you slept in a position that prevented your tracker from getting a consistent heart-rate reading or wore it too loosely. For best results, wear your tracker higher on your wrist (about 2-3 finger widths above your wrist bone). The band should feel secure but not too tight.
  • If you used the Begin Sleep Now option in the Fitbit app (instead of simply wearing your tracker to bed). For more information on automatic sleep tracking, see How do I track my sleep?
  • If you slept for less than 3 hours.
  • If your tracker’s battery is critically low."
