I was disappointed to see that the high and low heart rate notifications for Fitbit are only if you have been inactive for at least 10 min.

Is there another feature I have missed that will send high and low HR notifications during exercise?  I'm not concerned with high HR while at rest, I do want to get high HR notifications during exercise.

Do I need to switch to an Applewatch?

I had the same concern, but it is possible to set heart rate notifications during exercise. 🙂

On your watch:

  • Swipe to Exercise screen
  • Choose an exercise type
  • Scroll down past ”Start” and ”Set a Goal” buttons to Settings
  • Toggle Heart Zone to “ON”

This setting will make your watch buzz when you enter fat burn, peak, and cardio zones after you start the exercise. I have noticed a short 5-10 second grace period before it buzzes.

 

Hope that helps!
