Hi @Greg18  I dont have AF but my husband does. I have ectopic heart beats. It seems the heart rate monitor doesnt cope well with either condition as far as accurate readings goes, and seems to over count the heart beats, so during episodes of my ectopics my HR goes up dramatically according to my fitbits, though it actually doesnt. My husband is in constant AF and his recordings bear no relation to what is actually going on (mind you even taking his pulse manually it is really hard to count his HR accurately!)
