Blaze adding steps & floor counts while riding motorcycle

Replies are disabled for this topic. Start a new one or visit our Help Center.

This issue has become highly annoying now. My blaze keeps updating steps and floor counts while riding my motorcycle. I understand there is a provision to remove those by logging the activity "Driving"; but its only feasible if you ride once in a while not on a daily basis. Moreover, for frequent rides one cannot continuously keep adding activity "Driving"; 10 times a day and also keep a track of the exact duration for the same.

 

I want to know if this issue will be fixed in the forthcoming update. Otherwise this wrist tracker is useless for me. I can very well use my iPhone 6 health app for basic stats, which has no such issues rather than spending ~$200. Also, highly unadvisable for people who ride motorcycle frequently or as a daily commute (Trust me you will get fed up).

 

I am also sharing stats as from one of such incidence.

 

Stats:

Ride duration: ~ 1.5 hrs

Floors added ~ 15

Steps added ~ 3000

Road condition - Good (highway)

Hello @Apurv welcome to the Fitbit Community!  Our engineers have worked diligently on your tracker's algorithms to make sure that it does not pick up false steps or activity recordings while in a car. I found the idea: Automatically log 'Driving' activity when driving take a moment to vote for the idea on the Feature Request board. This forum is the ideal place for you to share your thoughts with the Fitbit Community and Fitbit product developers.

 

Thanks for stopping by! 🙂
