Dashboard Standard Activities

[Aeroalli]

It would be great if logging activites was more user friendly.  Make more "standard" options of basic activities.  I ride the stationary bike a lot at the gym.  Currently I have to make this a "custom" activity and fill all the information in.  I have no way of knowing how far I went or what my average speed is to calucate the calories burned.  Being able to input the intensity of the workout would be more more user friendly for ALL activities and have the problem automatically calculate the average calories burned based upon the data input by the user.  Other great "standard" activites would be cross training, weight lifting, yoga, zumba, core, etc.  I would love to see these options added to the dashboard.

@AeroalliWhen you click Log, Activities and search for your activities, stationary bike is there, two entries, the first has intensity if you click "Don't know distance". The second you need the calories. There is a crossfit, zumba and a couple of yoga.

Give them ago, and be careful because we are awaiting for the edit feature to be reintroduced,. At the moment if you make a mistake you have to delete and re-enter.

Also be careful of the day when entering past activities because it always defaults to today's date.

Did you have that current but reduced list of activities in database?

Someone had that, searches aren't getting specific enough to find it whoever had it.

@HeybalesWeights Heavy has been added and now an extra  Zumba

Ok

[Aeroalli]

@Colinm39Thank you so much for your help.  Are all these workout options available on the phone app or is it easiest to log workouts using the actual computer/internet?

[Colinm39]

All of the manual activities are there on my Android under the Exercise option.

[Aeroalli]

Hum...I've had the app for a week on my Iphone and have yet to find everything you listed above.  I'll keep looking.  Thanks again for your help.

[Colinm39]

You won't see a table of data but when you are in the exercise item you tap the little stopwatch in the top RH corner and when you start typing the activity name will appear.

This is a huge help, @Colinm39 - thanks!

@Colinm39I can't get the "intensity" to appear on my phone app.  I only see that feature on the website.  Any idea how to change that on the app?

@AeroalliI replicated that on my Android., because intensity for Bike is in the web page you can log into the Fitbit site via your phone or send an email to Support to tell them of the error.

Here is the Support link.
