No, I'm afraid not.

 

Our fitbits track stairs by measuring changes in air pressure as we gain elevation but as we don't actually gain any elevation when using a stepper we don't get any stairs tracked.

Hi @tbatz, regarding your question, the information that shared my friend @SteveH is correct.

 

In addition, I'd like to share this help article, which explains how your Fitbit device counts your stairs climbed.

 

See you guys around!
