@Kangagrant   The Inspire 3 is the only current model.  It doesn't have an altimeter, the small piece of hardware that counts floors.  The other models are discontinued.

@Kangagrant  Can you clarify which device you have? There is no device called a "Fitbit 3". Could it be Charge 3, Inspire 3, or Versa 3? You can check that in the Fitbit app.

@Kangagrant I've moved your discussion to the Inspire 3 board. @LZeeW has already explained why your Fitbit does not count stairs.
