Stroller Mode?

[Jesskorta]

When I walk or even jog while pushing my child in the jogging stroller, my charge 2  logs the workout as an outdoor bike.  If I ignore the bike as an automatically found exercise it doesn't log my 2+ mile walk as an exercise at all.  What can I do to change this?

Hi @Jesskorta,

I would use the Multi-Sport mode, where you start the Walk on the tracker, and then hit the side button again to mark the end of the walk.

@Jesskorta, the problem is that the tracker needs to detect arm movement, such as the normal swing of the arm when walking or running, which does not happen when you are holding on to the stroller while walking or jogging.  As @WavyDavey suggested, if you have your phone with you the tracker Exercise Mode for Walk or Run can be used to measure distance, heart rate, etc.. But, that will likely not count steps.  An alternative you might consider is to put the Charge 2 on your ankle or in a pants pocket where it can measure movement.
