inaccurate step counter, how to stop the ghost steps

[a008]

I have a Charge 5, didn't paid much attention to the step counter accuracy but recently planning to keep track of my daily activitiy and notice both the step counter incremented just by typing on the keyboard.  I had over 5000 steps yesteray for walking from home yesteray!  Is there a way to fix this or improve the accuracy?  I am pretty sure my old Charge 3 had this problem but I never rely on the step counter until now.   Thanks

Hi @a008  these are wrist based trackers and if you were playing the guitar, waving to people or anything else that makes the wrist move, it will think of the movement as steps. All you can do is change the sensitivity of the Fitbit by selecting non-dominant or dominant hand. Click to learn how to remove unwanted steps.
