Description

Steps

Steps taken today and progress toward your daily goal.

Floors

Floors climbed today and progress toward your daily goal.

Distance

The total distance covered, measured in miles or kilometers.

Calories burned

Fitbit devices combine your basal metabolic rate (BMR)—the rate at which you burn calories at rest to maintain vital body functions (including breathing, blood circulation, and heartbeat)—and your activity data to estimate your calories burned. If your device tracks heart rate, your heart-rate data is also included, especially to estimate calories burned during exercise. The number you encounter on your Fitbit device is your total calories burned for the day.

Heart rate

This reflects how hard your heart is working. It's displayed in beats per minute (bpm). It also includes your current heart rate zone.

Resting heart rate

Your resting heart rate. For more information, refer to How do I track heart rate with my Fitbit device?

Sleep

Sleep duration, sleep stages, and sleep score. For more information, refer to How do I track my sleep with my Fitbit device? or What should I know about Fitbit sleep stages?

Active Zone Minutes (AZM)

Check how many Active Zone Minutes you’ve earned today. For more information, refer to What are Active Zone Minutes or active minutes on my Fitbit device?

Exercise

Number of days you met your exercise goal this week.

Hourly activity

The number of hours today you met your hourly activity goal. For more information, refer to What are the reminders I see on my Fitbit device?

Blood oxygen

This metric estimates the average amount of oxygen in your blood during your last sleep session..

For more information, refer to How do I track blood oxygen saturation (SpO2) with my Fitbit device?

Skin temp variation

This metric is the variation in your skin temperature taken from your wrist while you sleep.

For more information refer to How can Fitbit help me track my temperature?

Body responses

Your watch uses electrodermal activity (EDA) to detect periods of stress or excitement. This tile shows the total amount of time your watch detected body responses today.

For more information refer to How do I track and manage stress with my Fitbit device?

Mindfulness

Check your progress toward your mindfulness goal for the week.

For more information refer to How do I track and manage stress with my Fitbit device?

Readiness

Your daily readiness score is a snapshot of your body's recovery status, helping you understand how prepared you are for your next workout. It combines insights from your heart rate variability (HRV), sleep, and resting heart rate (RHR) to guide your training decisions, refer to What's my daily readiness score in the Fitbit app?

Cardio load

Cardio load estimates your heart's workload throughout the day using a five-level scale.

Note: This feature is only available to Google Pixel Watch 3.

Target load

Target load represents the daily cardio load target you should aim for, based on your readiness score and recent load to avoid under or over training.
