Hello,
I have read that the new Fitbit Sense might play a role in recognizing a Covid-19-infection. Is there a warning or something like that, when the measures are not normal? Thanks for your answers.

Hi @Flenty, welcome to the community.

 

I don't believe there are any diagnosis tools for Covid currently, it all seems to rely on self interpretation of the health metrics data. What you are referring to is a study/trial Fitbit conducted a couple of months back, but it doesn't seem to have progressed beyond that.

 

Perhaps this is something that will be added at some point, although I'm sure it would need to gain some type of regulatory approval.

There was something some time back.  There was also the Oura ring work, which I think is still ongoing.

But, and somewhat off-topic, there was this report from a few days back which you might find interestin
