Active minutes measurement

[mmazzini1]

Hi All

I have noted that when i do some low-intensity exercise i.e. walks, etc. which do not earn any Active Zone Minute, the exercise dashboard still provides the "old" Actve Minutes metric, including the full-day amount of that (xx minutes out of xx).  I find that metric/info very useful- is there any other way to make it always visible?  As what i described means that Charge 5 still track Active Minutes...

Cheers

@mmazzini1   Active minutes still exist in the app because there are many devices that track active minutes.  My husband switches between his Blaze and Sense every workday.  He likes the Sense features, but can't wear it at work for security reasons.

I looked at your profile and saw that you voted for a Feature Suggestion asking for Active Minutes.  It's listed as Under Consideration, but I doubt it will happen.  You wrote that it is an essential metric, but it isn't.  The CDC and WHO changed their activity recommendations several years ago.  They both recommend 150 minutes/week of moderate activity or 75 minutes/week of vigorous activity or a combination of the two.  Tracking Active Zone minutes helps you meet the current recommendation.
