Fitbit Charge 4 Comes with GPS, Spotify and Heart Metrics
Fitbit’s newest advanced fitness tracker is here. The and swimproof Fitbit Charge 4 has everything you need to keep you on track when it comes to your health and fitness goals.
If you can get outdoors, you can use built-in GPS to see your real-time pace and distance, and check out the new workout intensity map for your walk, run, or ride. Firbit's new Active Zone Minutes feature helps you get your recommended daily dose of heart pumping activity, whether you’re working out indoors or outdoors.
Plus, Charge 4 offers both new and improved features, including sleep tracking, Spotify – Connect & Control, 20+ goal-based exercise modes, and more.
You can get your heart pumping with Active Zone Minutes, a new personalized feature that uses your heart rate to measure the intensity of your activity, helping you get the most out of every workout. The feature is available now on Charge 4, and coming soon on Versa 2, Versa, Versa Lite, and Ionic.
You can use the new built-in GPS feature during runs, hikes, rides, and more to see pace and distance on-wrist—all without your phone. Track anything from your walk around the neighborhood to your paddleboarding route, and see a map of your route afterward in the Fitbit app.
After you do a GPS-enabled exercise, you now see new data on top of your route map, with the option to select either heart rate zones or pace. If you select heart zones, it’ll show you HR zones shaded throughout your route.
You can add exercise shortcuts to your wrist like run, hike, bike, and more to quickly track your workout. In addition, you can now use our new outdoor exercise mode for a variety of activities, such as kayaking and cross-country skiing. And, it is GPS-enabled, so you’ll get a map of your workout afterward in the Fitbit app.
Sleep Score, plus time in light, deep, and REM stages. Sleep Score combines multiple factors, looking at your sleeping heart rate data, time asleep, and restlessness throughout the night, every night you wear your Charge 4 (and any Fitbit device with Sleep Score) to bed. This gives you a quick, easy way to see how well you’re sleeping, watch your trends over time, and keep yourself accountable to your sleeping goals.
