Inspire 3 tracking steps strangely

[Beth1961]

I understand that Inspire 3 tracks driving. Annoying but whatever. Today, however, my FitBit tracking stated I had gone 800 steps while shopping at 2 huge stores (one a supercenter) at which I made sure to walk every aisle. My hands were on the shopping cart. When I returned the cart  at the last store and walked back to my car- swinging my arms, imagine my shock when my steps numbered over 450! 

That is nearly the amount that the Inspire3 says I go when I drive the 11 highway miles to work. 

Is there an update that was created to make the accuracy a little better?

Hi @Beth1961  read this article - click to go there - to learn more about the accuracy. Remember these are wrist based devices and need that arm swinging to count the steps. When you keep both hands on the shopping cart, you'll pick up fewer steps. If you're a knitter or drummer, you'll log even more steps.
