Fitbit

Does anyone know if the pacemaker interferes with the fitbit's operation. I have not bought one yet. Thought i would check here to see if others may have some experience with the fitbit and pacemaker operation.

You should hear from several others on this forum who have fitbits. As I remember - no problem. But I'll let them chime in.

it's fine

No problems at all, it works the way it should.

And I love it! No interference, and I am really looking forward to the day where all the data can sync in the new IOS health app.

No problem

Hi John
My kids gave may a fitbit a while ago and it is great. There have been no problems with any interference. It helps me to challenge myself a little more. I try to at least do over 10,000 steps per day. Actually I wonder if the technology behind the fitbit came from the development of rate response in our pacemaker.

No problem here...

...With my FitBit. I have an older version, a FitBit Ultra. It doesn't go around my wrist, it clips on to your clothes.
