Can you be more specific than "not working"?

Is it giving unreasonable numbers, is it not displaying on your tracker, or on your phone app?

Is anything displaying where you would expect the heart rate to be?

If it is not displayed on the tracker, is heart rate displayed on the heart rate graph on app, particularly on fitbit.com app?

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

Welcome aboard @freckles8660! I'd like you to confirm on your Ionic itself that the heart rate monitor is ON as @Gregerator suggested you. If it is, but you still getting only this "--" instead of your heart rate readings, please try to restart your Ionic. Just follow the instructions in this help article: How do I restart my Fitbit device? .

 

Thanks for your help @JohnnyRow!

 

Let me know how it goes!
