manually entering steps

[annaarthur]

Hello,
My Fitbit has a full charge and I did the hard reset and now it is working. However I lost 6,000 or so steps yesterday while at a zumba class. How can I manually enter them so they count? I am in a 5day challenge and those steps are greatly needed.
Thank you! !

It is possible to manually log a walk and enter those steps but I'm afraid any manually logged steps will not count towards challenges (or badges).

@annaarthur As @SteveH says above, you can manually log the steps by following the link in his post, but he is also correct in saying that those steps will not count towards your Challenges. To learn more about which steps sync over to Challenges, check out our Challenges FAQs page.

Is it my imagination or did manually entered steps also just drop out of the weekly averages? Boo hiss 👎
