New fitbit & Smart Ring On Old Me

I spent a day setting up my new fitbit, woo hoo everyone is wearing them, only to find that the advertisement was deceptive about this tracker's capabilities, and since I "have been diagnosed with AFib", I cannot use that reporting feature on it.  The only features available to me were counting my heart beats and counting my steps.  That is not of enough interest to me to pay $100.00 for the device.  Tracking of my abnormal heart rhythms was exactly why I bought the fitbit, so since I cannot do that with this, I spent another hour packing up the fitbit and returning it in Amazon's complex return process.  I also returned the smart ring unopened in its box.  Cannot fool me twice.
