The heart rate monitor on my new Versa 2 is pointless. It’s accurate when I’m resting and not a bit accurate when I’m exercising. It’s says 120bpm, say, when my pulse is actually around 90. It thinks my heart rate is 130bpm when I’m walking. It’s not. It said I had achieved 140 active minutes when I was clearing out my cupboard. Nonsense. This reading presumable affects everything - calories burned, active minutes etc - so I’ve turned it off. If you really want a heart rate monitor, I wouldn’t buy one of these.

Did you try a restart of the watch to see if it resolves it.

Also making sure its located correctly on your wrist might help.

They are generally pretty accurate unless its faulty.

If the problem persists contact Fitbit Support.
