See Why does my Fitbit device count extra steps? 

Nothing worn on your wrist can get you an exact step count.

If getting a precise step count is the most important measurement to you (more important than heart rate data and all data coming from that), then the Fitbit Inspire with the clip is probably the tracker for you.  Or you could take it off when doing an activity such as folding clothes.

But for me, it doesn't bother me if my daily total step count is off by 1%.

Before posting, re-read to see if it would make sense to someone else not looking at your Fitbit or phone.
