    All times of the day, it tracks everything well. As soon as Im doing any work out it loses my heart rate. The time I need it the most and it NEVER tracks it during a workout. Ive had a major weight loss journey that has been made frustrating because I cant measure the intensity of my cardio workouts. Insanely frustrating.

      Hi there, Mack. Sorry you’re having accuracy issues with heart rate on the Charge 6 — we get this is frustrating. Try these steps to make sure your device is working optimally:

      1. Tighten the band so that it doesn’t slip on your wrist
      2. Heart-rate tracking may not work with certain accessory bands, especially if they’re loose fitting
      3. Use the Exercise app to record GPS data for your workout.
      4. Intense arm movements can weaken your device's signal. If this occurs, relax and keep your wrist still for roughly 10 seconds.

      We’re here to help 24/7, reach out to us here: https://support.google.com/fitbit/gethelp?hl=en

    The wrist band caused rash and itching. Changed to aftermarket breathable band which stopped the rash. The sleep detector has not been accurate, failing to provide correct hours of sleep. The step counter seems correct. The heart rate detector seems correct; however, I cannot tell if the atrial fib detector works since the hours of sleep appears incorrect.

    I purchased my Charge 6 mainly for tracking steps and sleep. Sleep data for the last 2 months has been wildly inaccurate and inconsistent. Fitbit support just keeps putting me off.

      Hi there, Kthomas. We hear your concerns regarding not getting the most accurate readings from the Charge 6. Here are a few things to confirm to get the best results:

      For step tracking:
      Confirm your height and wrist settings are correct in the Fitbit app to get the best results. Since it uses height to estimate your walking and running stride lengths, you may want to measure and manually adjust these values if your legs are longer or shorter than average.

      For sleep tracking:
      1. Check if your sleep setting is set to Sensitive. If it is, change it to Normal.
      2. For accurate sleep tracking, position your device 2-3 finger widths above your wrist bone, ensuring a secure but comfortable fit.
      3. To adjust a sleep session’s start or end time, edit it in the Fitbit app.

      Don’t hesitate to reach out to us here: https://support.google.com/fitbit/gethelp?hl=en

      Hi, SharenJ. We're sorry to hear that your Fitbit Charge 6 is not tracking your steps properly. Fitbit devices use a 3-axis accelerometer to count your steps. This sensor also allows your device to determine the frequency, duration, intensity, and patterns of your movement. Also, factors such as device placement, dominant or non-dominant hand, and stride length affect the number of steps recorded. If you're pushing a stroller or shopping cart, try putting your wrist-based device in your pocket or use GPS if possible. For more information, you can check this link: https://help.fitbit.com/articles/en_US/Help_article/1141.htm For more accurate reading, please visit https://help.fitbit.com/articles/en_US/Help_article/1136.htm For further help, reach out through phone, chat, social support, or through our community forums at https://goo.gle/contactfitbit

    Great watch when it stays with you

    The Fitbit Charge 6 My Wife’s Charge 5 broke after a rather severe impact. Nothing I could do about that. So I ordered her a Charge 6. The watch itself works great, and the sleep monitoring system is quite good. It has a major drawback. If you misplace it, you are going to have to download a Bluetooth detection app that will get you within about 10 feet. The watch doesn’t make noise to tell you where it is. Most would say that you aren’t supposed to lose your watch anyway. Unfortunately, the Fitbit 6 has a serious problem with the watchband letting go of the watch. At first, I thought it must just be this watch, but a quick internet search showed many pages of people with the exact same complaint. The watch is great, but good luck keeping it on your arm. When I attached the band, I discovered that with minor movement, it would fall off. So, I ordered a new band from Amazon and installed it. It worked for about three days, then had the same problem as the first.

      Hi, Jabra7pro. We appreciate your feedback. Fitbit Charge 6 is a wrist-based motion sensor, it may add extra steps whenever your arms are moving, even though your body isn't. To get better step tracking, please ensure your wrist placement setting is aligned with how you wear your tracker. We suggest fixing your hand settings to "Dominant" to decrease its step counting sensitivity. For more info and tips on how to best improve your tracker's accuracy, please check out: https://help.fitbit.com/articles/en_US/Help_article/1136.htm

    This is my fifth purchase of a Fitbit product. Likely my last. First I had to abandon (forced) my active Fitbit account and sign up with a gmail account that I never use and now don’t get my emails and notifications unless I check the mandatory gmail account. Not convenient. The durability of the device has not been as strong as previous models. Chaulk me up as a disappointed loyal user who does not support the manufacturer dictates and mandates to their products and platforms. Not a good customer experience.
