Pulse oximeter - incorrect measurements

Pulse oximeter is totally broken with 4.70 on Vivoactive 4. Medical pulse oximeter shows me 96-100, Garmin 85-88, sometimes below 80. I am confused and angry. Measurement was correct on earlier version of firmware.

I confirm the problem. I have my va4 for 8 days and I'm always around 89/90%. in fact my doctor check has always returned me 96/98%. Despite this problem, Garmin elevate technology is excellent when monitoring…

I concur. Much lower than the usual fingertip sensor. It's useless.

I have the same problem. Really bad.

Have seen this from day 1 on my vivoactive 4, which I've been using for about a year. Never registers higher than 96%. Simply adding the ability to calibrate would address this problem.
