Accessing cardio data in detail

Replies are disabled for this topic. Start a new one or visit our Help Center.

Fitbit newbie here, so this may be an obvious question!

I just bought a Charge 5 on basis that plentiful cardiac data may help me manage my long-covid symptoms. 

The problem is, I only get heart data over the course of one day and can’t see smaller time chunks. I know I must be missing something and I know stuff like HRV won’t be available until I wear it for longer, but I can’t see where to access anything but the most basic of stuff? Photo attached from yesterday as an example of what I can see. Thanks I’m anticipation. 

ETA: error message when I attach photo.

Not sure what you want.  Do you want to see graph of several days all attached together instead of one day at a time?  Won't that show even less detail?

 

I hesitate to get into this because it's probably going to  create a lot of questions about how to do it for a new user, but one way to see more detail is to use the fitbit.com dashboard instead of phone app and look at daily heart rate graph.  Then under Log - Activities, create an activity - anything, say walk a mile during time of interest, then look at details of that activity to see heart rate graph of that time interval.

Hi there, thanks for responding. 
I want the opposite really, I want to be able to zoom in on a particular part of the day. Do I get more data on my desktop account area? I’ve not really explored that as I assumed it was all the same.

Might be able to do those in phone app too, not sure.  Just seems to me able to see more detail on width of PC screen than on narrow phone screen.

No, sadly not. I must admit I'm pretty underwhelmed by the amount and level of data available to me. I really didn't want to go the chest strap route, but it looks like I may have to.

So you tried creating an activity for a shorter time and looking at the heart rate graph for that short time as I suggested, and you didn't like that?
