Auto-track activities not working on Pixel watch 2

[mwu12]

The auto-track activities function is not working on my Pixel Watch 2. In the fitbit app, I made sure the setting "track automatically" is enabled and the minimum duration is set to 5 mins for outdoor biking. However, when I bike for more than 5 mins, Fitbit didn't track it. I did, at some point (unsure when but not the first minute), receive a notification asking if I was biking and if it should start tracking. But I assume this is not the auto-track function. If I understand correctly, the function should track activities without me having to agree.

I've updated my watch, Fitbit app on my phone and on my watch to the latest version. I also tried restarting my watch, but none of that helped.

Hi, @mwu12 , you are correct in thinking that it should auto track without your having to agree.  But the fact that you got that message suggests that your Pixel watch did indeed detect the activity.  I wonder if it is possible that some movement in your wrist or the environment actually caused the watch to think the answer was negative.  I would suggest trying again and if possible note the message, but as before ignore it and see if the auto tracking begins (as it definitely should).
