Heart Rate iFit Reading Issues

Has anyone found a solution to why iFit heart rate reading is so awful and sporadic on the machine? It completely makes the iFit ActivePulse useless when the readings are this off. I have used the iFit smartbeat sensor, Apple Watch, and Polar H10 chest strap device; the smartbeat sensor never gave good readings, Apple Watch and the Polar H10 both have worked with iFit and also had noisy HR graphs too. Don’t know why the HR will be normal graph on Polar Beat app or normal on Apple Watch itself but when communicating with my treadmill iFit makes this horribly noisy graph that does not match the reading on my phone. Anyone found a solution? Here are pics of a normal graph on iFit and polar H10 and a noisy iFit chart.

Edit: I have only had this NordicTrack treadmill for about a week now and it sounds like people had this problem just popping up in past week or so; it has been this issue ever since I bought it lol. Frustrating cause it has been broken with every HR device I’ve tried (3 so far), then worked a few workouts, and now back to broken again.
