Over counting floors

[Nads76]

Hi I've notice a couple of time the last few weeks that my floor count is very wrong...for example today it says I've done 98 floors it's only 11.08am and I didn't get up till 9.30am ....any ideas how this can be corrected

HI @Nads76,

Has your floor count been correct up until now? Did you do anything out of the ordinary for you the past two days, for example ride in the car with your arm out the window? Wind can impact the accuracy of floor counting. If you haven't done anything our of the ordinary, I'd suggest restarting your tracker. 

If you need help with how to restart your tracker, you can find it HERE.

@Nads76 it will also depend on the weather you are having locally. If there are severe high wind storms or prestorm weather similar to before a hurricane or tornado warning, it will count floors because there is a difference in atmosphere pressure.

Good point @emili. I always forget about that living in area that doesn't have those hurricanes or tornados.

Thank you i'll try to reset and see how it goes...as I've not done anything to it different from before and definitely haven't put my arm out the window.....it was just going up while I was standing or walking at work in a shop with no aircon......
