Unless you’re always together you should each have a Kardia device. I keep mine in my purse with my medication so it’s always with me. It’s very accurate and I wouldn’t be without it.
My Fitbit also detects Afib but not right away and often hours after it has started. Apparently the Apple Watch is better at detection but I have no experience with one.

Welcome @sylviajean, Thanks for sharing. I also have both an Apple watch and a Kardia six or two lead device. I think the Kardia device is much more accurate and shows my SVCs and occasional PVC where the Apple watch just mostly shows sinus rhythm.

Do you send the Kardia reports to your doctor?
