arrhytmia detection?

[ckuttner]

There was a news item some months ago that Fitbit was researching detection of arrhytmias. 

I am now dealing with period arrhytmia, specifically atrial fibrillation, after heart valve replacement. One way for me to keep track of that would be for me to switch to—well, you know what brand. But I’m loyal to Fitbit...

Any idea if/when my Versa might be able to track arrhytmias?

The new Fitbit Sense has an ECG app to detect AFib.  This is available in the U.S.  Its availability varies by country, depending on local regulations and certification.  I don't think it can be added to any other models, including Versa, because it has special hardware.
