I just heard on public radio that some of the Fitbit devices actually have a feature that measures the percentage of oxygen in you blood, just like a pulse/ox meter. They interviewed some expert who says this is actually better than taking your temperature, in monitoring possible COVID-19 disease.

Does anyone know which Fitbit devices do this?  - ljgoff_111

@ljgoff_111 

You heard right: Ionic, all Versa, Charge 3 and 4 have such function.

However the sensor is used only during sleep to verify eventual lack of oxygen in the blood to.prompt you to go for a more accurate medical checks.

If you want to use it as an early.test in this period of Covid-19 I suggest you to buy an oxymeter, much more accurate and cheaper than any Fitbit.
