Jogged on the treadmill for 20 minutes, had 11K steps and 61 minutes of activity and the tracker is saying yesterday wasn't an exercise day?

@KBWKBW, was the treadmill exercise recorded as an Activity in your Activity Log?  If not, it won't count towards the number of days exercised.

It did not but I don't understand why.  They've always recorded on their own before, not by me, and I would think yesterdays activity would qualify as activity.  It always has in the past.

Thanks for the reply, @KBWKBW.

 

The Alta HR uses automatic detection, which you can read more about here. Someone more familiar with how that works on treadmill will be here to answer in more detail.

 

When it was detecting prior to this, was it listing the activity as treadmill?

Yes, it was. That’s why I was so surprised it didn’t register.
