Incorrect Sp02 reading

13 hours ago

13 hours ago

The SpO2 has been reading 95 since I got the watch, which is the same as a finger O2 tester. Today it's reading 92% - the finger tester is 95/96. 

If it was 92 I'd be worried 🙂

I've restarted the watch, and wiped the back, no change. Is this reading generally inaccurate or do I have a problem?

The SpO2 readings you get from Fitbit are overnight readings while you are asleep, not the same as an on-demand finger tester while awake.  From the Fitbit Help section

From that, it sounds like 92 overnight is nothing to be concerned about.

Before posting, re-read to see if it would make sense to someone else not looking at your Fitbit or phone.
