Hey All   My daughter gave me her fitbit blaze which I used for the first time today - very excited about it.  Until I got in my car and see my arm while driving - my fitbit is just racking up the steps as I drive!  Not a bumpy road.  So now I'm really disappointed because I have no idea how many steps I've REALLY taken.  I tried taking it off my wrist and setting it on the seat - same thing.  So I have a few thousand steps at least more than I've actually walked.

Anyone else had this happen and is there a way to pause or something while driving??

Welcome to the forums!

 

There is no way to Pause it. But I have read several threads that say plug it in to charge it and it will not track the steps.

 

I can not vouch for it as I have never tried. I do not go on a lot of bumpy roads

 

Hope to see you around
