Fitbit also announced that Hollywood superstar Will Smith is their new ambassador. As part of the partnership, Fitbit and Will Smith have teamed up to create exclusive content across social, Fitbit Premium, and the upcoming YouTube Originals docuseries, “Best Shape of My Life.” The Fitbit Charge 5 succeeds the Fitbit Charge 4 that was launched last year and it comes with tons of features that are aimed at helping users keep a track of various parameters pertaining to their health. The list includes sleep tracking, sleep tracking, menstrual health tracking and heart-rate tracking features among others. With Charge 5, Fitbit has also introduced something called the ‘Daily Readiness Score’. Daily Readiness Score is an aggregated score that is calculated based on a variety of parameters that are measured by a Fitbit device. It uses a user’s activity, heart rate variability (HRV) and recent sleep to assess when they’re ready to push themselves physically or in other words if they should workout or prioritise recovery.

Fitbit says that by wearing a Fitbit device daily (including while sleeping), users will receive a personalised score each morning along with details on what impacted it, with suggestions like a recommended activity level and Premium content to help them make the best decisions for their body and make their workouts more efficient. While Charge 5 is the first Fitbit device to get the Daily Readiness Score, it is not the only device that will get this feature. Fitbit said that the Daily Readiness Score will be available in the Fitbit app for Premium members with Fitbit Sense, Versa 3, Versa 2, Charge 5, Luxe and Inspire 2 devices and that it will be available soon in 18 languages to Premium members globally with compatible devices in the Fitbit app. Also read: Looking for a smartphone?
