Heart rate graph in zone minutes

[SunsetRunner]

 

Has anyone else looked at your heart rate graph on zone minutes? Does it match your other heart rate graphs? Mine doesn't and when I look at it in the morning it looks totally normal. I mean it shows my heart rate not getting over around 74 but if I check it later on in the day it will show huge spikes in it. It's super weird.

Those pics are of the same day and same time frame!!!! I just took a pic of it first thing in the morning and then later on in the afternoon. So it's literally adding these huge spikes in my heart rate after it's already been recorded. So now it's messing with my resting heart rate!!! 🤬 it's done it ever since I did the update. When I went back through the days it has added them in to every single night!!!! Right around the same time!

@SunsetRunner -

The granularity of the graphs is different.

The Heart rate graph appears to be plotted at 5-minute averages.

The Active Zone Minutes is more dynamic and appears to shorten the times between plots if your heart rate spikes. I see one- to five-minute data points.

With the graphs in full screen s-l-o-w-l-y drag a finger/thumb across each graphic to see what I mean.

My graphs:

Is the graphs you posted on the same day? Why is it showing your heart rate spiking overnight in one graph and not the other? I've actually logged my sleep as exercise and they are no spikes in it at all. Just little normal ones and if you slowly drag your finger over that one there's nothing like the high one's one the zone minutes. If I look at the zone minute heart rate graph first thing in the morning after everything syncs there are no spikes in my overnight  heart rate and as the day goes on everytime I click on it there will be little spikes in it and they will get higher and higher. I mean if they were truly spikes in your heart rate it would show up right then and not ten hours later.

@SunsetRunner -

Same day (September 5th) -

The four "spike" periods between 7:30 am and 3:00 am are three treadmill sessions and one short period of performing a relatively strenuous "honey-do". So those are definitely valid.

And I just booked an exercise for a ten minute period starting at 12:40 am for the same day and, with a one-minute granularity, saw no spikes. The numbers ranged between 76 and 80. At bit high for me, but the overnight temps have been a bit higher than normal, as well, and I didn't turn on the ceiling fan. I did last night and I had no spikes.

The active minute detail never mentions that timeframe - and the detail adds up to the daily total. I wonder if I spiked for a few seconds during the "spike periods" but still averaged in the high 70's.

Interesting.

And although it is not that important for this discussion, it appears that, for at least AZM, the exercise totals are inheriting the device totals for the "clock minute" not the "exercise minute". In other words, if you start your exercise at 2:07:20 you will get an AZM total update on your exercise app 40 seconds into the exercise, and then at 1:40 into the exercise, etc.

It still doesn’t make any sense to

me. I just looked at it again and now it says my heart rate went up to 111 at 1:07 am. This morning When I woke up it didn’t have any spikes in it over 74. 

[Kellie1851]

Mine is doing the exact same thing. Everything looks fine in the am, but when I workout during the day and get some minutes, it adds a spike around 1am that wasn’t there before

[SunsetRunner]

Mine is still doing it. It's been doing it every since I updated it. I'm about ready to get rid of it and get an apple watch. 

[Kellie1851]

Mine is still doing this as well. I just did a stationary bike ride and got 30 active zone minutes. When I went back and looked at my graph, it added a heart rate of 137 at 1:40am. That was not there before my bike ride. This is frustrating.

[SunsetRunner]

Mine is still doing it too!!!! I wake up and look at it and it has no spikes in it and later on in the day I look at it and it has added spikes in the middle of the night. All usually round the same time. It’s beyond frustrating.

I posted the same question yesterday - in my zone hr chart I have a140bmp spike at 1.15am but my normal chart shows hr at 1.15am as 74. Definitely a glitch then if it’s happening to us all. 

[SunsetRunner]

It’s been happening every since the update. It’s definitely not right. 

[candiceschmidt]

Mine is not reflecting my day correctly. It is showing my hr correctly when I open the app but when I click on the tile it does not reflect my day right. I burned 2700 calories yesterday and it says I was below fat burning and really low for almost the entire day. It said I only had 37 minutes of fat burning when my actual workouts show a lot more. Interesting this stuff always happens after an update and a new watch comes out. Wish I had answer! Customer service was less than helpful. 

[candiceschmidt]

Sometimes I don’t wear mine at night because I just don’t want it on or it needs to charge and I don’t know if it’s picking up vibrations from my fan on my dresser or what but it will show my hr in the 160’s all night when I’m not wearing it. But yeah this update messed things up. I don’t like how the active minutes work now and my hr information has been consistently incorrect since the update 

[LauraRoos]

Mine happens every night too. 12:40 AM there is a cardio spike.  Makes no sense.  Except this morning, it was a null set where the spike usually is.  So buggy.

[CindiLi]

Yes this is very strange.  When I look at the HR graph it shows while I was sleeping it went to 93 a couple times probably during REM, but on the zone graph it shows it went up to 113 at the same time.  Then after I did my elliptical today it added one at 1:03am of a HR at 121 that wasn't there before!

[SunsetRunner]

That's what mine is doing too! It's literally adding false spikes in HR overnight. It's not doing it during the day just at night. I've even logged my sleep time as a exercise and looked at that graph and they are not there. That graph shows hr in 10 second intervals.

Just more inconsistencies showing up everywhere in the product in addition to the gross spamming that has reached new heights on the food log page in the iOS app. I quit counting the inconsistencies after I hit a dozen.

FitBit better hope that Apple doesn't figure out a way to keep a charge for a lot more than 18 hours - say maybe three or four days without having to disable everything? My Versa 2 can hit five easily.

[ScubaAmy]

Same here. I have a Versa 3, and my heart rate is normal and stable thru the night and throughout the day. But...if I exercise or achieve “Active Zone Minutes”, it goes back and creates a peak around 1:15 am of my heart rate in the night that nearly matches my exercise peak from that same day. It’s crazy. It makes NO sense and I just got off the phone with customer support to see if others have had this issue. He said no one else has reported.
