The exercise tile just allows entering distance & time. I forgot my Fitbit Charge 5 and want to manually add STEPS throughout the day. Can this be done?

Again that only gives me “pace, calories, distance!!” It doesn’t have the option to add STEPS!”

I have the same problem. Tells how to add activity but that does not add the steps.

I figured out if I edit the activity I added to add a distance, then it will add steps, so I had to tweak it to match the number of steps.

 

NOTE: The reason I needed to do this is that my Charge 4 malfunctioned so I bought a Charge 5 to replace it, but I wanted to transfer the 2,000 steps my iPhone heart app logged while I was without a Fitbit.
