I have been a fitbit user for a few years now. I upgraded from the Flex to the Blaze about 2 months ago. The Blaze has been absolutely wonderful up until yesterday. I rarely walk up stairs (maybe 5 flights a day if that). It counted 22 flights of stairs yesterday. I restarted it twice, but still no change and it already has a few counted for today.

 

What should I do?

Was a storm front moving through at the time, @biigred12?  Atmospheric pressure changes will cause floors to be counted that you never climbed. The tracker uses an altimeter to measure altitude changes, and a change in air pressure can affect that.

It was windy outside, but no storm moving through. Never thought about
pressure change. Thanks!
