Sense's Own Little Conflicts

[Vic33]

Hi there, I have 2 suggestions for Fitbit.

1) There is a conflict between the "turn on watch on arm rotation" and "Always on" activity feature.

When both options are on and I am running, the screen is always on but when I look at the watch it turns off the screen and then on again instead of remaining always on. This could be fixed with an update

2) In the morning, do not use ECG app before having the SpO2 stats because you will lose them and the text "cannot read SpO2" will appear. I tried to play with the watch to have the sp02 stats earlier instead of waiting 30 minutes or so. Sometimes it's working but not always. This could be fixed with an update

I can not comment on number 1 but will test it I find the always on mode completely useless since the quickview is very responsive and dependable. 

No 2 I'll test this within a few days. Normally the SpO2 reading on the clock face requires it's own sync since the calculations are performed on the Fitbit cloud services. 

As for ECG do you have a medical reason for checking it every morning?

Hi @Rich_Laue  thanks for the interest.

I like the always on mode when I am running and I use it all the time because the quickview option is not perfect. It does not always turn on when I want and I don't make the perfect "turn screen on gesture" all the time neither..

I don't use the ECG every morning lol, I just played with the watch so the SpO2 % will appear more rapidly than waiting 30 minutes or so after I wake up. Sometimes it works. However I won't play with the ECG again before having the SpO2 reading.

I think the Sense and the Versa 3 have trouble recognising when you've woken up as the red SpO2 LEDs flash for ages after I've gotten up.  Once it recognises that you've woken up, the red LED's will go out and the SpO2 clock face will update.  I've tried doing a bit of exercise and stretching to try and get the SpO2 LEDs to go out sooner, doesn't seem to help.
