Resolved! Sense is tracking my heart rate too high

No heart rate data on EDA Scan guided session

Spiked HR for no reason - false?

This has happened to me a few times now. My heart rate shows as shooting up to 146 when I’m in bed/asleep. My mum died of a heart attack so this is worrying me. I suspect it is a false reading but I just want to check. I have no heart rate notificati...

Sleeping Heart Rate Concerns

Resolved! General review about the Fitbit Sense

I like Fitbit. But after using a Sense for about 8 months, I come to the conclusion that, with all its bells and whistles, Sense was a bite more than Fitbit could chew. And that's a pity, because it's affecting the brand's prestige, in my opinion.   ...

Sense stopped tracking my heart rate accurately

My heart rate was always between very good to excellent, and one day it went to “Poor” for no reason. Nothing changes my routine! When I ask help to fix to error they send the links that I have already read them. It is about your watch, not the weath...

Heart rate graphs don’t match

My active zone minutes graph is showing a spike in my heart rate in the middle of the night, but the heart rate graph does not. Why don’t these two measures match?

AZM not correct vs chart for HR

So yesterday my AZM says 144 mins yet where you look at the chart with the HR associated under AZM you see barely any yellow maybe 20 to 30 mins but not 2 + hours worth of consecutive zone mins would likely kill someone. It is saying from 6pm to 8:40...

Sense not reading elevated heart rate

When I'm working out it's very obvious my heart rate is elevated.  But my sense won't capture the elevated rate and seems to stay in the 80s where I am over 130bpm per manual counting.  I have tried cleaning sensors, adjusting placement, tightness, w...

Using the Sense as a Heart Rate Monitor

Does Sense track HR when it's off my wrist?
