Driving isn't in the activity list, nor is there an option to add it. I drive a semi truck and get a ton of credit for steps that I shouldn't. Do I really have to take my watch off every time I drive?!?!? That is seriously the only solution? Do better! .

Hi @Mselle, I give you a warm welcome to the Community!
Thank you for your message and feedback.

I very mistakenly chose your response as the "best answer" and apparently I can't reverse that. Sigh.
I appreciate your response but you did not address nor answer my question. Is taking the watch off the only way to deal with the watch's lack of ability to sense driving? Is it true that there is no way to add driving as an activity/exercise?
Best AnswerHi @Mselle I unchecked your inadvertent best answer selection. You can do this, if it happens again. Tap on the down arrow in the upper right of the post and the option is in the drop down. Likewise, you can revoke a vote if you voted by mistake.
I’m sorry, but I can’t help you with the steps while driving issue.

Hello @Mselle
Based on the posts I've read, even if you do select Driving as the activity, it won't prevent tracking steps from the vehicle's movement. That part of the Driving activity feature isn't working as it did in the past.
