hi, newbie user.

i read that the inspire 3 had rowing as an activity?

i've updated and still don't see it listed. what activity should i use instead?

and is it going to be added?

Hi @ushere.  Rowing got added with firmware version 194.91.  The number of exercise shortcuts went from about 20 to 40.

But I have some disappointing news for you.  The rowing shortcut doesn't track any rowing specific metrics.  It looks identical to the workout shortcut with a different label.

hi, thanks for the quick response. appreciated.

I'm not worried about the rowing details, however, rowing isn't showing up
at all on my inspire 3 list of activities?

in fact, I've no idea what version you're referring to. if I go to app it
says 4.49.
if I go to settings > system, I see 63.20001.214.24

I note you mention firmware version. how do I find my firmware version. and
how do I update it if necessary?

thanks for your time and patience,

leslie

@ushere   You have firmware version 214.24.  The rest of the number is the device code.  Swipe left or right on your Inspire 3 screen to get to your Exercise app.  Swipe up in the screen to scroll through the shortcut list.  There are 40, so you need to do a lot of scrolling.  After you use a shortcut, your list gets divided into Recents and everything else, keeping your favorites at the top.

There is a tutorial in the Fitbit app that can show you how to navigate your device.  Tap on the battery/device icon in the upper left of your Fitbit app, then your Inspire 3 tile.  Scroll down to Tip & support to use the tutorial.

hi lzeew, thanks for the help - unfortunately i'm not seeing 40 activities anywhere - on the app i have 21 activities, but not rowing?

i've searched everywhere to find the extended list without success.

i gather from your previous comment that workout is pretty much the same as rowing - if so, i can live with that 😉

again, many thanks,

@ushere   This isn't on the app, it is on the device itself.  The Inspire 3 only had 21 activities when it was released and you customized it on the app.  The other activities got added, but Fitbit (ooops) didn't remove that exercise shortcut section on the app.  I think you will see the Exercise app on your Inspire 3 if you swipe twice to the left on your screen.
