Fitbit new SPO2 clock face - what kind of oxygen ranges has everyone been getting?

[99eggs]

Mine is showing a low of around 92% to 93% and a high of between 96% and 98% every night so far... with an average of between 94% and 96%. Although still very early days, this seems quite low. Do you think I should be concerned or is this normal? What has everyone else been getting?

I just installed the clockface yesterday so can't give you a historical perspective.  Heck I don't even know how you would find stats past the last night that it shows on the face. (is it a premium feature on the web dashboard?).   Last night I registered  97% avg

Found this that seems to indicate "at least 95%" is normal.  https://www.health.state.mn.us/diseases/coronavirus/hcp/pulseoximetry.pdf

It would be cool if Fitbit could show your stats against crowd-sourced anonymized data in the same age group.  Maybe we have to wait for Google to take over for that.

@99eggs -

I only used the clock face one night, receiving a 92% average with a range of 90 - 93%. This is somewhat expected as 1) I take Beta Blockers that throttle my heart rate (even with exercising) and I have a viral damaged Left Ventricle that only pumps about 1/3 of the desired amount of blood each time it compresses. My SpO2 was measured by my Cardiologist's assistant as 98% on September 3rd at 10:00 am during my semi-annual visit.

I will not be providing more data to the thread as all-in-all I think the clock face is pretty week. Yes the clock faces are clean and well laid out, but who wants to look at their nightly SpO2 every time they raise their wrist. It is important to look at once in the day, maybe twice. Having to tap the face once for every metric the face provides and not being able to select the metrics you want to see is another reason not to be impressed.

Now, having one face that is customizable, with a single tap to get to the SpO2 information when you want it might be worth revisiting.

Just another instance of, in my admittedly not so humble opinion, of an overall weak effort by the FitBit development team

Compare the above to what Apple came out with in their Series 6 Watch this week in their SpO2 app not to mention Irregular Rhythm Notification.

I've had SpO2 capable devices for two years and unless I'm wrong (wouldn't be the first time - even this week), this is FitBit's first effort to show "Numbers" - unless it is available in some manner in the premium subscription. And even then, if you don't manually keep track of the numbers, you need to subscribe to premium to do so. From the FitBit blog - "And if you want to track your trends over time, upgrade to Fitbit Premium to view your SpO2 stats over the past week or month with the Health Metrics dashboard in the Fitbit app."

And the Versa 2 has skin temperature reading capability in their sales documentation - anyone seen that being leverage for the users?

Neither sales documentation for the Charge 3 or Versa 2, of which I have owned both, mention that their use is Pay-for-Play.

I am still a bit of a FitBit cheerleader, but I'm not some naive youngster, so it isn't the first time I have seen "lying by omission" or "leading people on" or "Marketing half-truths".

My Versa 2 is also showing low SpO2 levels (as low as 92% too).  I also have a pulse oximeter that reads SpO2 from a finger tip that shows my SpO2 as 98%.  I'm more confident of the pulse oximeter's reading.

How did you installed clock face ?

The select option is not highlighting for me to install
