Feature Request: Pre-announce workouts for improved activity detection

[fc_fc]

Hello Fitbit team and community,

I think it would be extremely beneficial to add a feature to pre-announce our sports activities directly in the Fitbit app, ideally in the form of a calendar that can be synchronized with external apps.

Automatic activity detection often misclassifies structured workouts like spin or Zumba, leading to inaccurate data. A 'pre-announce workout' feature, where users select the activity type and start time, would significantly improve tracking accuracy.

Cheers

Hello @fc_fc 

Have you tried manually starting & ending your workouts? Doing this allows you to select which activity you want to track as your workout, especially since not all the available activities on Fitbit devices are auto-recognized. This help page describes how to manually track your workouts (<-- click link).
