Mowing the lawn automatically registers as Outdoor Bike

[Elvey]

Is there a way to edit the name of the exercise to Mowing? 

If not, how do I get around this?

Not sure how to rename exercises.  I was edging and mowing the lawn today and got credit for swimming.

To disable automatic exercise recognition on a Fitbit, you can reportedly do the following:

• Go to the fitbit.com dashboard
• Click the gear icon next to your device name
• Under Auto-Exercise Recognition, adjust the duration for each exercise or select Ignored to turn off automatic exercise recognition

You used to be able to edit the name of the exercise in the iOS app and "mowing lawn" was one of the choices.  Someone, in their infinite wisdom, decided to eliminate the feature in the latest update.  No doubt someone who lives in an apartment or condo and has never mowed their own lawn.  Makes we wonder if the developers even use a Fitbit.  They certainly haven't asked actual users before they have removed useful features.

Maybe they're secretly on the Apple Watch team!  Thanks for the info.

Thanks for the tip.
