Hi everyone,

 

Just recently came back to Fitbit and picked up the charge 5. 

 

I noticed it only sometimes tracks my sleep sometimes 1 hour sometimes 30 min. 

 

How tight do I have to have the band for it track my  sleep? 

 

When I wear my apple watch it tracks my sleep just fine and I don't even have it that tight. 

 

Thanks for your help!

Hi Steve,

I can tell you that I loosen mine at least one notch when I workout and slide it higher on my wrist, using a wrist sweat band to hold it up there. Sometimes, I forget to tighten it back up and then sleep with it VERY loose and it's still never had a problem tracking my sleep.

 

Hope that helps.
