Hi, my job consists of a lot of standing and arm movement, I assemble boxes, but my fitbit records my arm movements as steps. I was wondering if there was any way to help adjust the settings so that it would only record my steps as opposed to arm movement. Can I make it less sensitive to movement?

Hello @EGrange and welcome to the Community.  If you wear your Fitbit on your non-dominant wrist, you can change the sensitivity by changing the wrist setting to dominant.  This will reduce, but not eliminate, these steps.
