Inspire HR to include estimated oxygen variation

[mm_11]

Estimated oxygen variation is important to monitor, for those having this problem.  Please include it in the Inspire HR devices.  Wife's cell phone app shows a box for it and that's it.  My phone app doesn't even show or reference EOV.

Though it would be nice to have EOV in all devices, it requires a special sensor that was not included in several models, including Inspire HR, so unfortunately there is no way to add it with a software or firmware update.

"EOV tracking is available on Fitbit Charge 3, Fitbit Charge 4, Fitbit Ionic, and Fitbit Versa series."

I just bought an Inspire HR and wouldn't have bought it if I'd known this.  I also got one for my mother, thinking that there would be useful tracking information.  Syncing is a constant nightmare, downloading data isn't possible, times aren't given for heart rate data and I can't even see heart rate and sleep data on the same graph.   I really, really, really hate my Fitbit!

If EOV built in is only available on Charge 3, 4 Ionic & Versa series, which of these would also contain all the features as the Inspire HR?  And of those, which would be the better overall choice?  Currently have Inspire HR.

Any of them have all the features of the Inspire HR.  The choice depends on what is important to you: price, visibility in sunlight, color display, more downloadable apps and clock faces, small profile, Fitbit pay, Alexa access, on-device music, ...

Hi JohnnyRow,

Thanks for reply and maybe one more assist in narrowing down.  Not after all the extra fancy features.  Of items you mentioned, only the visibility in sunlight, eov and things within Inspire HR.  With that in mind, what would be a good quality device and I thank you, sir.

I am hesitant to give any recommendations in case someone follows them and then is not satisfied, but from what you say I guess the Versa Lite.  It costs more than the Charge 3 but has better visibility in outside light.  I do suggest buying from somewhere with good return policy in case it doesn't fit your needs.

Thanks so much JohnnyRow.  I'll get it directly from Fitbit.  You've been very helpful and greatly appreciate it.
