I agree. I've been extremely disappointed in the HR sensor on my new Sense – not only for the distorted pulse rate number but because the HR data affects the output of so many other data points that I use to monitor my health.
I tried to add my Inspire 2 back to the app so I could wear it during exercise only to learn that it's no longer possible to have more than one device on a Fitbit account.
As a Mac/Apple person all the way, I did extensive research on the various smartwatch options and was leaning toward an Apple Watch. But the Sense won out due to daily Apple Watch charging + my familiarity/satisfaction with the Fitbit platform. So far, it's been a glitchy, frustrating ride.
Yes, I am also very disappointed with heart rate accuracy, especially at low resting heart rates like I have. So, in addition to supporting this general request with my vote, I have done some more detailed experiments and made an independent specific proposal based on it, see:
