The Irregular Heart Rhythm Notifications feature uses Fitbit’s PPG (photoplethysmography) algorithm. IHR Notifications passively assesses the user’s heart rhythm in the background while they’re still or sleeping. If there’s anything that might be suggestive of AFib, you’ll get notified via the Fitbit app so you can talk with your doctor for a more informed discussion and assessment.
