Sweet and heart rate‽

Every time I workout and start sweating my PW2 stops tracking my heart rate once sweet gets under the watch! Is there any way to fix this. Cuz it makes my workout tracking stop due to not tracking heart rate! It's so frustrating!!

Hi, @jazmin8, welcome. FYG, I used my PW2 to swim every day and never experienced a loss of HR. You may find this article of interest How do I track heart rate with my Fitbit device - Fitbit Help Center Note the need to ensure the PW2 is in the right position & in full contact with your skin. As you are seeing some HR Data, may I assume you do not have any tattoos or scars on your wrist near where the watch contacts your skin?

Please post here again & let us know how you get on.

Cheers

Unfortunately, there is no way that I know of to stop that.  With that said, it's recommended to tighten the band a little bit when working out, have you tried that?
