Inspire 3 Concerns

[KJeff]

Hello,

Finally had time to take a break and ask some questions about the Inspire 3.

1) I have 3 workouts planned each week. Monday Weds and Fridays. Yesterday Fitbit logged an exercise of walking twice. Question: Does Fitbit see walking around my farm as exercise? It booked .44 miles 19 mins and .56 miles at 22 mins. I walk a lot around the farm.

2) Today Fitbit logged two Bike rides as exercise. Only problem is I don't use a bike. One was logged as .02 miles 40 mins and .97 miles at 21 mins. 

3) I question the accuracy of the heart rate log. Fitbit logged 179 BPM as I ran on the treadmill.  The heatbeat range was 44 to179 BPM. After 30 or 60 minutes on the treadmill I rarely go over 109 BPM according to the treadmill stats.

Is the Fitbit off? Out of calibration? How can I dial this Inspire 3 in? Maybe, I'm just not understanding something here.

Regards,

That's it for now..

If I sit in a chair watching TV for several hours, Fitbit logs this as sleep time.

I have the same issue with sitting still being considered as asleep.  My fix for this had been to shake my wrist every now and then.  There might be a better solution, but this works for me.

As for the automatic activity detection, you may want to turn them off.  I had a similar problem when using my snowblower, the Inspire 3 would record it as biking.

Laying on my stomach while working on a dishwasher installation was recorded as swimming.

That's crazy. But, I figured out that 2 hours on my riding mower record
that time as cycling. LOL

Thanks for your input
