Should you wear it on your dominant wrist

Hello @Marmo1 

What wrist you wear it on is a personal choice and which ever you feel more comfortable with. I personally think the stats are a bit more accurate on the dominant wrist but again whichever you choose is fine. I sometimes even wear it on my ankle (depending on what I’m doing to avoid certain smashing accidents 😂) with a Fitbit ankle strap I purchased on Amazon. 
Here is what Fitbit recommends: 

For wrist-based devices, it's important to specify whether you wear the device on your dominant or non-dominant wrist during setup:

  • The dominant wrist setting decreases the sensitivity of step counting and should reduce any over counting of steps when your body is not moving. Your dominant hand is the one you use for writing and eating.
  • The non-dominant wrist setting increases the sensitivity of step counting and should reduce any under counting of steps.

To start, the Wrist setting is set to non-dominant. Change your wrist setting in the Fitbit app. For more information look here:https://help.fitbit.com/articles/en_US/Help_article/1136.htm


😃I hope that answers your question
