Is the Fitbit Blaze accurate if I wear it on my belt or in my pocket?

Hello, does anyone know how to set my Fitbit Blaze so that I can wear it on my beltloop or keep it in my pocket and it is as accurate as if I was wearing it on my wrist?  I have noticed that it is not counting all of my steps if I put it in my pocket instead of wearing it.  Any suggestions?

No its not as accurate as its meant for the wrist.

 

You already noticed the difference putting it in your pocket. I think the belt loop would add more as it will be swinging back and forth as you walk

Generally a pocket is not as accurate for any tracker.
