My fitbit is too large for me

I got a nice birthday gift from my friends and I love to have it...
but my Fitbit Charge HR is too big on my small wrist. It is S/P size.
Do you think it will still work properly? Anyone had same issue?
I can not tighten it more because of it's natural hard curve.
Thanks!

    As long as the the hr sensor is flat against your wrist and somewhat tight, it should read fine. Mine fits the exact same way and seems to work. Although I only just got mine as well.

    It's not supposed to be worn tight. I have the Surge an I can see gaps between my wrist and the band.

    That's how mine fits. Try it for a week or two, and if you hate it ask your lovely friends to exchange it.

    Do not wear your tracker too tight; a tight band restricts blood flow, potentially affecting the heart rate signal. That being said, the tracker should also be slightly tighter (snug but not constricting) during exercise than during all-day wear.
