HR test to check accuracy

[Lilabradford73]

How do I know if the Fitbit is logging my heart rate correctly?

Is it too much or too low?

Hello @Lilabradford73 the easiest is to compare with a finger reader. 

Or manually check it. 

• Looking at the second hand of a watch 
• 2 fingers on the inside of the wrist. 
• Count your pulses for 15 seconds. 
• Multiply the count by 4. 
• Answer should be close to what fitbit says.
