Incorrect floor counts

[MSingh]

I am using fitbit blaze for last 2 months and it shows numbers of floors climbed without me taking even one step on staircase.

If I am not mistaken - and Fitbit can correct me if I am wrong - floors counting is actually elevation calculation, translating certain height to floor. I saw while hicking, going up hills, the number of floors constantly increased, without going on any actual floor.

True @blapath.
@MSingh your tracker counts.floors by looking for a very small decrease in air pressire, and any Dr tease in air pressure might be detected as a floor. In a car with only one window open, a windy day, or a wind gust, also an approaching storm may give floors.
