I have created custom activity on website but it does not appear on my mobile app on Note 5. Tried Stationary Bike, when I try to enter on mobile app, once I type the word bike the app automatically lists bike or mountain bike options. I even tried Exercycle as an activity but mobile app doesn't recognize that either.

Hello there @rettea. I've noticed that you are new around, welcome to aboard to our community. I have the same complication. I have a custom activity as "Dog Bathing" that doesn't show up on my Android app. This activities are only possible to log from your online Dashboard. But I think it will be a great integration. So I invite you to visit our Suggestion Board to share your idea with the rest of our community.  The product development teams consult regularly to ensure we're delivering on what our users need and want.

 

See ya later my friend. I'll be around if you have more questions.

My custom activity - "working at my standing desk" - disappeared after January 24. I only just noticed that FItbit is replacing it with "sitting, typing".  It looks like my calculation for standing is 2 cal per minute and the fitbit calc for sitting is 1 cal per minute, so I could double my hours.  But it was better to have the label correct.  I was about to add standing on the subway - which is a calculated effort to increase my energy use.

 

How can I get my standing desk back, and how can I add the new subway one in. 

 

Please see screen shot.
