The Fitbit 5 and I would presume ALL there others count ‘STEPS’ when your ARM/Wrist is moved, 

NOT actual ’Steps’.

 

SO, One’s ACTUAL ‘Steps’ are really arm movements, Ie; Writing an email will ‘UP’ your Steps, Waving, Cooking, ANYTHING whereby you use your hand with ‘FB’ on will add steps.

 

I wrote too ‘FB’ about this ( No reply) 

 

The ‘Fitbit’ should l/will be more accurate wearing it on your Ankle.

See my reply to your nearly identical post an hour later.

Before posting, re-read to see if it would make sense to someone else not looking at your Fitbit or phone.
