Ability to Correct Type of Exercise After Completion

Status: Not currently planned Submitted by on ‎06-02-2018 13:04

I am a new user to Fitbit Alta. Some of my exercises are not recorded correctly.  This is expecially true regarding type of exercise.  Sometimes I bike outdoors, but it shows up as Run or Walk.  I would like to be able to log into Fitbit on my computer and make edits to the exercise to be closer to being corect in type, time or distance.  To me this is a seriously annoying limitation to the Fitbit system.

I swear we used to be able to modify our exercises after completion but today I went to add the distance for my auto-tracked walk and I wasn't able to. Not sure what happened but I agree.

Water aerobics is outdated name. Most fitness places have changed to names like Aquafit. Water Zumba Water fitness would fit all categories including water walking.
