Why can't you use afib detection on the Charge 6 if you've had afib?  Those are the people who NEED afib detection.  Is the company trying to sell a useful device or just a non-functional fashion item?

@oldprogrammer   I agree with you.  I think there are some reasons and Fitbit didn’t think this through.  When my husband first developed a-fib, he was in a-fib some of the time, but not all of the time.  Knowing when he was in or out would have been useful information.  He had an ablation and is back in a normal rhythm.  He uses it and his cardiologist agrees.  I think you should use it if you want to.
