How to Connect Fitbit Sense to an iPhone and Android

If you’ve recently purchased a Fitbit Sense smartwatch and want to pair it with your iPhone or any Android phone then this guide is for you. In this post, you’ll learn how to connect Fitbit Sense to an iPhone or Android phone.

Fitbit Sense

The Fitbit Sense is one of the greatest Fitbits available right now, and it builds on the Versa line’s success with some clever new additions. It’s intended to put you in control of your health by assisting you in understanding your body and mind and making adjustments to enhance your physical and emotional health – and it works.

It contains an ECG sensor to identify indications of atrial fibrillation, as do many of the top smartwatches and fitness trackers, but its stress monitoring function is what really stands out, and is something everyone can benefit from and use every day – not only in a health crisis. It’s a shame that many of the stress-management tools (such as meditation sessions and mindfulness tutorials) are only available to Fitbit Premium subscribers, but the Sense comes with a six-month free trial, so you can get a lot out of them even if you don’t choose to extend your subscription afterward.
