Tip 1: wear your Fitbit all day long

Your Fitbit needs enough data for a proper analysis, which is why it's important to wear your Fitbit for a full day at least. This means during the day, in the evening, and when you sleep at night. You can check your statistics in the Fitbit app the next day. The longer you wear your Fitbit back to back, the more data Fitbit will analyze.

Tip 2: wear your Fitbit correctly

Make sure your Fitbit fits well around your wrist. That's why it's important to wear the watch on the flat area of your wrist. It also shouldn't be too tight or too loose, your skin should be able to breathe. In addition, the watch has to be in the middle of your wrist. Do you see red marks on your skin when you take off the wrist? The watch strap is probably too tight.

Tip 3: make sure you have a good night's sleep

If you move a lot in your sleep or sleep less than 3 hours, your Fitbit probably won't register anything. That's why it's important to sleep at least 3 hours in a row and that you don't move a lot in your sleep. That's good for your Fitbit and for you.

Tip 4: download the SpO2 watch face or app

Want to track the oxygen level (SpO2) in your blood? Download an SpO2 watch face for your Fitbit. This is available for the Fitbit Ionic, Sense, and Versa models. You can download this watch face in the Fitbit app.
