Is anyone else having an issue with the auto recognition where it adds workouts while you're sleeping, at a movie, while you aren't being active? I had mine saying I was doing the elliptical for 70 minutes in the middle of the night. While I know I mounce a little in bed I'm not doing a jig! It would add elliptical in at obscure times and for absurd amounts of time. Anyone else?

I did finally shut off the elliptical recognition and so far haven't had an issue, yet.

Hello @A-lime, welcome to the Community Forums!

I appreciate all the information that was shared in your post, thanks for troubleshooting this situation prior to posting too. If you haven't already done so, I recommend you to also restart your Fitbit device to refresh its performance since you already disabled the elliptical auto-recognition activity from your account.

Please keep me posted and let me know if you experience the same situation again.
