If they would hurry up and get Google Assistant and tweak the software on heart rate monitor (to be a closer match to Polar chest strap monitor), add ability to modify names on picked exercises (not auto recognized exercises), add ability to answer the phone and talk into the phone (even if you have to have the phone on you) then it will be perfect.  Oh I forgot SPO2 on demand 24 hr and not just a watchface. Not kidding 🙂

SpO2 on demand seems to be rather a tricky thing for Fitbit. I have certain view on this subject. Basically, the companies usually show only data which they are confident about. Notice, that lots of data given by Fitbit cannot be verified or cross-examined against any other device. For me, it is a clear message that the data probably isn't as accurate as it should be. May be good enough to develop some "score" system but not to show it raw to the users. I am mostly curious about HRV feature. Even Garmin requires to use compabitble chest strap as this cannot be accurately obtained from the wrist HR sensor. Here again, Fitbit doesn't seem to be sharing a lot of actual data.
