Hi there, @Covetous1. Welcome to the Fitbit Community Forums. Thanks for the details provided in your post about the inconvenience with your Charge 6. I understand where your concern is coming from. I will do my best to help you with this!
I'd suggest to confirm that the following are correct in the Fitbit app:
Since we use height to estimate your walking and running stride lengths, you may want to measure and manually adjust these values if your legs are longer or shorter than average. For more information, see How does my Fitbit device calculate my daily activity?
Also, please note wrist trackers count steps depending on the movement of your arms. Fitbit has worked hard to make sure that our devices do not pick up false steps or activity recordings while driving. Unless you're driving in a car with a very stiff transmission or on bumpy roads, your device should not give you false readings. Also, if you place it in a surface with something vibrating or if you make hard hand movements.
Regarding your inquiry, please note there's no driving mode on Versa 4 or any other Fitbit devices you can use. However, there are ways you can prevent this from happening while you drive:
1. You can plug your Fitbit device into the charging cable while you are driving -- the Fitbit will not count steps while it is charging.
2. You can log the driving manually by following the steps in this article.
I've moved your post to the Charge 6 board for organization purposes.
