Hi William,

I have a question since you are a seasoned runner with Fitbit. The issue I am facing is that my Charge HR does not measure as many steps as if I were walking. It might be the way I run (normal, I thought, with my hands sort of chest level, not swinging lower in a pendulum motion as when I walk).

Does the Fitbit track less steps when you run? Im updating to a Blaze soon & that appearantly can recognize activity by the motion. Please let me know if you have tried it.

Thanks,

Brian

Fitbit app has GPS tracking that syncs to the Fitbit device instantly.  I have the Fitbit HR and the app tracks my runs without any problems and updates my steps while running.

Thank You, I didn't even think of that avenue of approach. I appreciate your answer (Mind Blown lol)
