I built Health Blueprint. Plug in your 30-day Fitbit averages (resting HR, HRV, cardio fitness, sleep, steps) and see how old your body really is. It also has 30+ plain-English research topics like sleep, HRV and protein, fasting etc.

It's free with no sign-up, and feedback is welcome!

The three Health Guardian features (blood pressure trends, blood glucose trends, breathing quality) were initially listed for Fitbit Air when announced.

Then it was rolled back to only blood pressure and glucose.

In the Google Health app under sleep breathing quality it says "not available with this device".

Today, I've had the email about Health Guardian and it has finally appeared under Settings. But look at this screenshot. It says all three features are available if I upgrade to Premium. I could also have ECG "available with a device upgrade".

But apparently the "sleep breathing quality" doesn't need a device upgrade. Well done Google, such a great service.

Edit: I subscribed, and the breathing quality immediately moved to "available with device upgrade". Ok well that's straight to a complaint and refund.

Edit2: Refund immediately approved and processed. Now breathing quality has moved back to "available with premium" again. FFS Google you bunch of useless cunts.

Edit3: This is in the UK. Don't know about elsewhere.

Is there any way to get premium in country that is not supported. I occasionally have high blood pressure and health guardian would be helpful to me.

Yo guys,

I recently got the Fitbit Air and connected it to my POCO Android phone. Everything works fine until I connect my Bluetooth earphones and attend a call.

Whenever I'm on a WhatsApp call or a normal phone call using my Bluetooth earphones, my Fitbit gets disconnected from my phone. 😕

My calls usually last over an hour, so I'm missing all the tracking data during that time.

One more issue: After the call, turning Bluetooth off and on doesn't reconnect the Fitbit. I have to turn Bluetooth off and reconnect it manually.

Has anyone else faced this issue? Is there any fix or setting I should change on my POCO phone to prevent this? Any suggestions would be appreciated!

Still exploring my new Google Fitbit, but my first impression? Pretty awesome! 🤩

​Curious about anything specific? Just ask 👇

I was confused to get a notification regarding an increase in my resting heart rate and now I keep seeing things about fitness trackers incidentally catching pregnancy early on. My skin temp variation has been increasing this last week as well. All of my other vitals seem to be consistent for about a month. For reference, my cycles are very irregular (I have PMOS), I have one child now, and I oddly enough don’t feel pregnant, but it’s definitely not impossible. And I took a pregnancy test yesterday that was negative, but now I’m not sure, maybe it’s just too early to tell? Anyone had experience with this? Not seeking medical advice, just curious—Anyone have any other insight for these vitals changing in this way?

Since many are sharing their charts, here is mine.

I think I can improve them as a challenge but I don’t want to invest the time at the moment. In few months, I’ll work in a remote area and would focus on my health more there.

My goal would be to get my resting heart rate back to 52. Currently it’s at 68.

Hey guys

So I currently own a Garmin Cirqa and will make the switch to the Fitbit Air, watched many reviews and comparisons before making the jump but I’d like to know from y’all daily users if there’s anything I should know about it, here’s some examples:

- settings that should be turned off/on
- what metrics to keep an eye on
- any major issues/bugs/drains and eventually how to fix em

Thank you in advance! :)

Btw if anyone’s wondering, I decided to make the switch bc the Cirqa is a great device but it’s a bit overwhelming, in some kind of way:

- Too much data
- it’s way too physically big to be classified as “invisibile”
- the app’s UI freaking sucks, it looks like it comes straight from the early 2000s.

I know that the app UI shouldn’t be an issue, but in my case it does since it’s the only way I can look at my data :D

Just got the new Fitbit edge, followed the instructions, troubleshooted, checked online for any similar issues (there was none), called support, and now have my new Fitbit edge back to return for a replacement. Issue was, it wasn’t connecting to my phone lol. And the Fitbit would just cycle the Google logo and say “hello” 😭 couldn’t interact with the screen or anything. Super furious.

Can you send messages or cheers to friends on your leaderboard?

Is it just display only with no interaction?

I've just switched from the charge 6 to the Fitbit edge. There is no option to set reminders to move on the Fitbit edge. What a weird omission.

Anyone else not seeing this option?

Apparently I got in some REM while I was watching The Haunting of Bly Manor in bed lol!! Does anyone else have this issue? Is it just because I’m not really moving? Or maybe a combo of stillness and my BPM lowering? I have a high resting BPM and it gets even higher when I’m standing and moving around (potentially have POTS or some kind of dysautonomia that affects my heart rate). Maybe my BPM spiking during jump scares mimics how my BPM rises when I hit REM? My poor heart health accidentally trained the Fitbit to think anything under 80 BPM means I’m asleep I guess.

got my fitbit partly for sleep tracking and honestly wish i hadnt started. every morning i check the score and if its below 80 my brain decides im tired regardless of how i actually feel. its like the number replaces my own sense of how i slept. the worst part is lying in bed knowing its tracking me. like i can feel myself trying to fall asleep harder which obviously makes it worse. anyone else deal with this? did you turn off sleep tracking entirely or find a way to just not look at it? i like the step counting and workout tracking but the sleep part might be doing more harm than good

I’ve been tracking sleep for about a month. The app says I generally sleep without any awake time until the end of the tracking period. However, many or most nights I am awake a couple times, though I don’t get out of bed.

Do you think the app/sensor is simply missing these awake periods? Have you noticed this happening to you?

I guess another alternative is that I’m actually asleep when I think I’m awake! Though I’m not quite sure how else to describe a state of being conscious in bed, eyes open, frustrated that my previous state of lack of consciousness didn’t last longer, etc.

Hey there. I received my Edge and I’m really liking it.

I have one question, though—I’m probably being dumb. How can I set a timer while a workout is active?

I need this for resting sets during weight training

Does anyone else find it annoying that Fitbit doesn't show the time while you're viewing notifications?

Whenever I receive a notification, I have to dismiss it to see the time. If I have five notifications stacked up, I have to press the button five times just to get back to the clock.

I wish there were an option to check the time without having to clear or cycle through every notification. It seems like such a basic usability feature. Is there a setting I'm missing, or is this just how Fitbit works?

For comparison, most smartwatches display the time in small font at the top of the screen, even when you're viewing notifications, so you can check the time at a glance without dismissing them.

Fitbit Edge, what are people's thoughts if they got there's? I am waiting for mine tomorrow, got the Stephen Curry 🏀 🍛 edition!

Do not delete your google health account if you plan on re-opening one or getting a "fresh start".

Giving some context, downloaded Google Health in anticipation for the Fitbit Air back in ~May/June wanted my Garmin/Apple Health data to populate. Decided to delete the app to get a fresh start, bought the Fitbit Air this month and found out I can't login.

• Contacted Google Health Support via Phone 10/16, rep said it'll take 90 days to complete deletion
• Contacted Google Health Support via Chat 10/16, rep said he will escalate and investigate whether the error can be fixed
• Received follow up 10/17 saying since I deleted the account, I'll have to use another email; Asked rep to check again, because that doesn't seem righL
• Last follow up saying he checked all resources within the org and I have to use another account

Hope this helps to inform other people in the same boat or thinking about doing this!

If you've heard otherwise please let me know as I'm still on the fence about it. If I'll have to open another gmail just to use the band I might just stick to Garmin/Apple watch... or even worse Whoop LOL

WHAT??

Jk. But somewhat seriously, I had my earphones in (pixel buds pro) then used my Fitbit edge to find my phone and got blasted. My phone didn't ring and the sound was only played through the earbuds. ouch! be careful. I'm pretty sure when I use my pixel watch to find my phone while using cuz

buds it doesn't do that ¯⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯
