It records steps when I'm not walking and it doesn't record active minutes.

I noticed that all my Fitbit data from different dates was modified with up to 80,000 steps and 9000 kcal, something I have never done. I find absurd amounts of steps from different dates. This counts steps while I sleep, while sitting, and even without using the watch.

Welcome to the forums @Dannys19. 

Thank you for sharing the inquiry regarding steps. Sorry to know the difficulty that you are experiencing.

Please confirm that you are using Mobile track. It is a service that allows you to count steps using your phone even if you forget to wear your Fitbit. You can "unpair" Mobile Track from your account.  On your Fitbit app go to the upper left corner, on the phone and device icon. Click on your phone icon and on the 3 dots and choose "unpair".
