I've searched the Community but can't find where this question has been answered recently.  Is there a Heart Rate Strap (Fitbit, Polar, Garmin, etc.) that is compatible with (i.e. it sends the data to my watch, my watch accepts the data, and that information in reflected on my watch's screen) my Ionic watch?  I don't feel that my Ionic heart rate information is all that accurate.

Sorry, but no.  Fitbits are not compatible with any chest strap heart rate monitors.

I expect it has been requested, and you could add you voice to that on the

Features Suggestions Board.

Before posting, re-read to see if it would make sense to someone else not looking at your Fitbit or phone.

@Houstonnick just to add on from what @JohnnyRow has already mentioned there is an existing thread which I voted on some time ago which Is still live.

I wouldn't expect such feature anytime soon (or just anytime) from Fitbit unless they will release own strap. That was exactly one of the major criteria when I was hunting for a new watch. Now I use Polar strap paired with another watch ( Suunto ) and works like a charm!
