Fitbit is on a quest to improve and increase the functionalities. These features are now available in the Fitbit app for Premium members with compatible devices.
Daily Readiness
Daily Readiness Score is a Fitbit Premium experience that uses insights from your body via your Fitbit device – your activity, heart rate variability (HRV over your entire night’s sleep) and recent sleep patterns – and proven research to help you determine if you should work out or prioritise recovery. By wearing your Fitbit device daily, you’ll receive a personalised score each morning with details on what impacted it, along with suggestions such as a recommended activity level and Premium content to help you make the best decisions for your body.
Research proves that taking time to recover can generate stronger results in the long run versus pushing yourself all the time. Pushing yourself too hard could lead to overtraining or injury and can impact your mood, sleep, appetite and weight. Over time, the guidance you will get can help you build a smarter routine that is more in tune with your body.
- Daily Readiness is now available in the Today dashboard of the Fitbit app for Premium members with Sense, Versa 3, Versa 2, Charge 5, Luxe or Inspire 2 devices.
- Sense and Versa 3 users will also be able to see their score on-wrist.
ECG
Charge 5 is the first Fitbit tracker with an on-device electrocardiogram (ECG) app which will allow you to assess your heart rhythm for atrial fibrillation on-wrist. Simply hold your fingers to the stainless-steel panels on the sides of the device while being still for 30 seconds to receive a reading and get deeper insights into your heart health.
Blood Glucose Logging
Fitbit users in Australia living with diabetes, will be able to use a new blood glucose tracking tool in the Fitbit app to see how their glucose levels change throughout the day and react to other health metrics such as physical activity, sleep, and nutrition, to help better manage their holistic health all in one place.
Keeping blood sugar in control is also critical in reducing the risk of heart disease, stroke, and other complications.
- Easily log your blood glucose levels directly in the Fitbit app. Get helpful reminders to log your glucose levels and related symptoms via app notifications right on your Fitbit device.
- See how your logged glucose levels compare to the personalised target ranges that you set.
- Track your trends with easy-to-read graphs in the Fitbit app to see how your daily habits – including activity, sleep, and food intake – impact your glucose levels over time.
- Coming soon, Fitbit Premium members will also see how often their glucose levels fall within their target range over a 30-day period, along with correlations and trends from when they take a reading and their levels. Fitbit Premium members can also see their blood glucose levels in their Wellness Report to share with their healthcare provider to help their care team offer more personalised guidance.
