The Best Fitbit for Every Type of Activity

Are Fitbits waterproof?

Aside from the first-generation Fitbit Ace kids fitness tracker, all Fitbits offer some resistance against water. All of the latest wearables, including the Google Pixel Watch 2, Fitbit Charge 6, Sense 2, and Inspire 3, can be submerged in water up to 50 meters deep. That also gives you a good idea of how well they’ll guard when you’re drenched in sweat. Where supported, some Fitbits do offer the ability to track swimming, though only in an indoor pool where it uses motion sensors to track your movements.

Can Fitbits connect to Strava?

Yes, although the dedicated Strava app that was previously on some older watches and trackers has been removed from the Fitbit Gallery. If you’ve got a Pixel Watch, you can download the Strava Wear OS app. If you don’t have a Pixel Watch, you can use the strava.fitbit.com link and follow the steps to start sharing your exercise data between the two apps.

Can Fitbits measure blood pressure?

Sadly, no. While the Fitbit app previously supported the ability to manually log blood pressure readings, that is no longer the case. Google does allow you to connect Fitbit to its Health Connect app to group health and fitness data in one place; if you use a blood pressure monitor and app that offers support for the Health Connect app, that’s currently the main way to bring the two platforms together.

Can Fitbits detect sleep apnea?

Unlike the Sense 2, which offers FDA-cleared ECG and PPG heart rate tracking features, none of Fitbits’ other wearables have the same clearance to say they can detect and diagnose sleep apnea. While its wearables can collect information like snoring with the use of a built-in microphone, Fitbit will not tell you whether you’re suffering from the sleep disorder.

Which Fitbit has an ECG sensor?

An ECG or electrocardiogram sensor is considered one of the most accurate ways to monitor heart rate activity, and measures the electrical activity from the heart. That’s different to the way that optical, PPG-style heart rate sensors gather heart rate information, and can be a little more susceptible to disruptions like increased movement that can affect data accuracy.

Fitbit introduced an ECG sensor to the Sense in 2020, and it’s now available in the Sense 2, Google Pixel Watch, Pixel Watch 2, and Fitbit Charge 6. Using the accompanying Fitbit ECG app, users can take on-the-spot ECG measurements, analyzing heart rhythm to help detect (not diagnose) signs of atrial fibrillation, which could be an indicator of a serious health condition.
