Missing REM sleep on Fitbit Blaze

[SleepyOtago]

Hi there,

My Fitbit Blaze has just stopped tracking REM sleep, can you please help me get it back to this setting?  Many thanks

@SleepyOtago Welcome to the Fitbit community.

Did it stop tracking just REM or is it not showing any of your sleep stages at all?

Hi there,

It was tracking but I could not see REM stages however I realized that I just needed to make sure that I turned on the heart monitor not having it on auto.

Thanks Otila

@SleepyOtago What do you mean by "turned on the heart monitor"? I have a Sense and don't make any heart monitor adjustments. It's always on and I'm not aware of an option to turn it off.

My Inspire 2 has an option to turn on/off 24 hour heart rate monitoring (a battery preservation thing)  If I turn 24/7 HR to "off" it does a paired down sleep tracking, w/o sleep stages or sleep score. This got me too.  The HR has to be set to 'On' for full sleep tracking. @eezeepee
