I have an appointment to go to a float tank (high salinity, low sensory input) in a couple of weeks and would love to track my heart rate while in there. Does anyone know how well or if the Versa handles salt water?  Any tips?

Hi @phinsup, welcome to the Community Forums.

Thanks for your post and the details that were shared. Let me share with you that once your device is submerged in water, the heart rate tracking feature is disabled because the sensors will have a hard time trying to track your heart beats per minute because the sensor lights will be reflected with the water from the float tank.

Let me know if you have any additional questions.
