Integration with heart rate sensors

Fitbit would be the ultimate watches if we could pair them with a heart rate sensor. I use Garmin when working out so I can use my sensor and get more accurate results.
This is needed because:
Those of us that take our training seriously need to be more accurate in our results. Doing strength training doesn’t even look like we’re working out with the wrist sensor. May as well not record it .
I'd use this: Daily

Thanks for sharing this suggestion. Our web API and smartwatch SDK are open which means that the service you are wanting can actually integrate with Fitbit. We’d encourage you to make this suggestion to the service and direct them to our existing API and SDK and resources such as the web dev API community. You will likely be able to email them via their contact us page or customer support, or they may have their own ideas board like this. Or encourage them to reach out to Fitbit directly. Thanks for your participation in the Feature Suggestion forums, we look forward to making Fitbit more useful for you.

In New Zealand we are still waiting for the ECG to be enabled on the sense. It launched quite some time ago. Why the delay and how long until it is enabled?

What are you saying @YojanaFitbit ? Here @Kerryw1408 is asking to have the Sense to be able to connect with an external sensor and definitely this is not possible via an API that in no way is available by Fitbit.
