It s recommended to wear it tightly but not too tight but if you want to turn it off you can go to fitbit your watch top right heart rate and set it to off on auto tracks if you are wearing the watch.
What are the green flashing lights on my fitbit alta hr.
The amount of light absorbed at a given time determines your heart rate.
It s on the charger and i ve installed the updates hit the reset button restarted my phone logged out of the app reset my bluetooth and most recently disconnected the device from my fitbit account.
The light is the heart rate sensor.
There is a setting to turn off heart rate tracking but in the manual it says.
07969099705 by confirming a booking you are agreeing to my terms and conditions.
The light flashes on the blood pulsing under your skin and a light sensitive photodiode measures the amount of green light absorbed.
You may notice the green led light flashing at random times or while you re not wearing the device.
Plug the fitbit into your computer and press the little black button on the lead computer end three times within four seconds and it will vibrate and restart do this 3 times and it should be flashing green again vicki vicki bugden rsli mvlp nrcpd.
Go to the app account alta hr and see what the hr is set on.
If this isn t the case you can also try changing the setting to off sync your tracker then change it back to auto additionally to restarting it.
It might have somehow switched from auto to on.
It is still on at night because it will track your sleep better.
If it is still saying auto turn it off and sync your alta hr then turn it to auto and sync again and see if that gets it working properly.
Optical sensors are here to stay but the exact make up of those optical sensors whether they re from fitbit apple or garmin are up for debate.
Most of the wearables you can get your hands on use.
Let us know how you go.
Press the button on the charging cable three times within eight seconds.
Like usaf larry said the green lights are part of the heart rate sensor and will be on all the time if you have the on setting for the hr.
Clip your alta hr to the charging cable and make sure the cable is plugged into a usb port on your computer.
