Sleep score

How do I set my fit bit so I get a sleep score overnight.  It seems to only happen once in awhile.

Thank you in advance.

Hi @cmommyof5 - Which Fitbit device do you have? And which Phone?  In general, there are two things to watch out for when you are not getting your sleep scores:

  • Fit - Make sure you are wearing your device about an inch above your wrist bone, away from your hand. Not too tight but not too loose.
  • Care of the area - Many of us like to apply hand lotion before retiring to bed. I know I do! Take care NOT to apply lotion to the area that will be under the Fitbit sensors. Also wipe the back of your device to make sure nothing has accumulated there. 

If these tips do not work, I can offer more once I know which Fitbit device you have.
