Video: How to Customize Exercise Shortcuts

Hi everyone! I had some free time, so I thought I’d make a video on how to customize the exercise options that appear on your Fitbit device. If you’ve ever wanted to remove the “bike” or “swim” option or wanted to add “elliptical” to your Fitbit device, this short video will help you!

Happy Stepping!

Thanks! Is it possible to add exercise routines not listed, as we could with the Fitbit HR? e.g., cross country ski, water aerobics, shoveling driveway.  thanks!

@Gayblaze Not really.  The best thing I can tell you to do is use the option simply called "Workout".  Then when you're finished with your activity, you can go into the app and rename the activity to whatever you want. I've done this when I've mowed the lawn before.  That's the closest way to do what you want.

it doesn't work with fitbit sense. it's annoying. any other tipps ?

Best Answer

@SunsetRunner @SunsetRunner Yes, the Sense and probably the Versa 3 do not have these options.  The Sense and Versa 3 already come loaded with all the exercise options, so there is no need to use this video for those devices.  That video was recorded back in March.  

 

Unfortunately at this time you cannot organize the exercises on the Sense or Versa 3.  However, your top 3 most recent exercises will populate at the top of the list.

@MItchfit66 Correct, rowing isn't an option.  However, you can choose "Workout" instead and rename it to Rowing after the exercise is done in the Fitbit app.  🙂
