Fitbit Alta HR is the world’s slimmest wrist-based, continuous heart rate tracking device combining the benefits of PurePulse heart rate technology, automatic exercise recognition, sleep tracking, battery life of up to seven days and smart notifications in a slim, versatile design that is easily customized to fit your style. Fitbit is also introducing two dynamic sleep tools – Sleep Stages and Sleep Insights – that provide deeper insight into your sleep quality and guidance on how to improve, building on its popular sleep features that have empowered millions of people to track their sleep since 2012. Sleep Stages utilizes heart rate variability to estimate the amount of time you spend in light, deep and REM sleep, as well as time awake each night, to better understand your sleep quality. Sleep Insights uses the whole of your Fitbit data to provide personalized guidance on how to improve your sleep for better overall health. Full press release: https://investor.fitbit.com/pres...

@jeremiahlee Are sleep quality metrics (% of time spent in deep sleep, light sleep, REM) available to IFTTT recipes? I'd like to log this information to a spreadsheet, and it's one area where my UP band falls down.

@jeremiahlee Any chance of seeing a Fitbit foot bracelet? I'm not sure I can wear a wrist one 24 hours a day.

@jevinsew If you're not wanting something on your wrist, check out the Fitbit One and Flex 2. They can be worn on your torso. I clipped a One to my pants pocket.

Idea: Fitbit launches a new wearable once every year or less. Have you considered a subscription or "upgrade" program to make it more affordable for people to stay up-to-date, @jeremiahlee?

@rrhoover @jeremiahlee wish I would have waited and not asked my wife for that Charge2 over the holidays. All I want is an activity tracker with heart rate monitoring. That's it.

@rrhoover @jeremiahlee Please no more subscription model pricing 😢. LOVE the upgrade program idea though. I'd pay an extra $10-15 at the time of purchase to be opted into that.

@bmweis I'm glad to hear that you like what Alta HR has to offer! Maybe consider gifting your Charge 2 and pick up an Alta HR for yourself.

@jeremiahlee give someone a used FitBit. That would be like giving someone my sweaty gym shoes that are partially worn. Wish there were a trade-in program where you could upgrade if your device is <1 yr old.

@rrhoover I think Fitbit already does a great job helping its customers stay up-to-date during the physical lifetime of the product. Fitbit has a consistent record of adding and improving features on its hardware products. For example, both Charge 2 and Blaze have received two major updates (not just fixes) since they were introduced. On the software side, Fitbit regularly releases updates to its app that make the data from a Fitbit tracker more useful. For example, the new Sleep Stages and Sleep Insights features announced today with Alta HR will also be available for Blaze and Charge 2. As for cost, Fitbit offers a warranty up to 2 years. Even at 1 year, the devices cost less than a latte a week. I hope that people get at least that much value from the product to consider purchasing a new device when one is released that they find compelling.
