How do I set up heart rate notifications on my Versa 3?

[heoun]

Hello,
I want my fitbit (versa 3) to alert me if I go out of a certain heart-rate range while exercising. I am specifically trying to stay in zone 2.

If I make a "custom zone" it seems that I will not get alerts, is that correct?

Just wanted to see if there's an easy way to do this. I'm thinking maybe just put the default zone alerts on may be the easiest.

Thanks

Hi there, @heoun. Welcome to the Community Forums.

Please note that Charge 5, Inspire 3, Sense, Sense 2, Versa 3, and Versa 4 notify you when we detect that your heart rate is outside of your high or low thresholds while you appear to be inactive for at least 10 minutes.

When your Fitbit device detects your heart rate goes above or below your personal heart rate threshold while you’re inactive, you receive a notification on your device. Tap Open, and then tap the notification in the Fitbit app to learn more about your data and complete a survey where you log any potential factors, medications, and symptoms. You can use the information you log in the survey to track your heart health trends and share it with your healthcare provider.

To start, your thresholds are based on your age and typical resting heart rate. To adjust your thresholds:

1. From the Today tab in the Fitbit app on your phone, tap your profile picture your device tile.
2.  Tap High & Low Heart Rate.
3. Turn on Custom in the High heart rate or Low heart rate section.
4. Tap Threshold and choose a new threshold.

To use your default thresholds, turn off the custom threshold.

Hope this helps.
