Tracking Blaze

[moonrun]

My Blaze tracks accurately or close to it
But under measures distance

[moonrun]

Meant to say step count is accurate but the distance measure is way under measured

@moonrun A warm welcome to the Community! I've moved your post to Blaze because it's more related to the topic. 

I would like you to check these essentials things posted here by @AndrewFitbit. 

Hope this helps. Keep me posted.

Blaze often doesn't recognise stairs climbed - I find it very frustrating after climbing two flights of stairs then look at Fitbit and it hasn't registered them! Has anyone had this problem?

Do you climb stairs the correct way by holding on to the hand rail with the fitbit hand? This could cause the tracker to not see that you are stepping, without steps being detected floors won't be either. Also the distance between floors must be 10 feet. 

It's funny how people miss that the steps up the stairs where not counted.

No Rich, I swing my arms as I climb the stairs, the distance is more than 10 feet so I am confused why it recognises it most of the time but then seems to not log it on other occasions.

@FrenchFitgirl I've had Fitbit Force, Surge, and Blaze. All three have an altimeter, and all three are hit or miss on stair climbing. Think of stair count as a bonus, if it works, great, if not, learn to ignore the over or under counting.
