Hike is not a valid activity name on Android even though it's shown on Fitbit device

I went hiking today and the App shows the activities as sports and/or elliptical. I tried to rename them on Android App but the App rejected the renaming and asking me to enter a valid activity name.  Ironically my Fitbit Versa 4 has the option "Hike".  Is this a bug on Android App?

Hello @FitB2Ysr 

Yes, there's a bug in the Fitbit Android app that is causing the issue you're experiencing. Please see this thread on the same issue (<-- click link) where the Moderator acknowledged the bug and stated that the team is working on fixing the problem.

There are also a couple of workarounds mentioned in the thread that you could try.

At this point, there aren't any troubleshooting steps that we can recommend since the issue is on the Fitbit side.
