Does the Surge track Heart Rate Variability in the background and if it does is it possible to get that data? I was about to buy a device to track HRV, but at a conference i was told that Fitbit can track HRV now and has chosen to keep that data hidden. I would love that to be the next tile of info on my phone or desktop. Keep up the good work.

Glad to see you here @mrphibb! Thanks for the suggestion @WendyB!
It's good to know that you're doing your research, this is the best place to ask that information. I'd like to clarify that our PurePulse heart rate tracking offers automatic, continuous wrist based tracking for all-day health insights and workout intensity. It is uniquely designed to measure heart rate all day, with always-on optical heart rate sensors that still maintain extended battery life.
It allows you to accurately track workout intensity and calorie burn with finely tuned algorithms that provide insight through interactive charts and graphs, since Fitbit tracker were designed to help you to get the next level of fitness based on the intensity of your workouts. But HRV information or specific stat in regards of beat-to-beat variability are not showed in the Dashboard. The heart rate icon you see on the display tells you if you're in one of three heart rate zones: Peak, Cardio, Fat Burn Zone and as you can see in your Surge you get the Resting HR or if you're out of zone.
I found two suggestions in our Feature Suggestions board: Heart Rate Variability (HRV) measurement and HRV integration. Add your votes and comments here. This board is constantly being reviewed by our devs to make sure we are delivering on what our customers need. Fitbit is always striving to improve!
Hope this helps!
