Want to have some insight on fitbit algorithm for determining resting heart rate - whether it takes only night sleep for RHR or average of day and night RHR, or only day's RHR.

My most of the BPM are under 62 during sleep time but still I'm getting a RHR score of 65. It wasn't the case with other smart watch. Any insight on this would be grateful.

Hello @SunsetRunner 

 

I couldn’t find any specific information about how it’s calculated but I tapped on More Information and it said this:

It appears to take the whole 24 hours into account from reading that.

 

 I hope that helps a bit.
