Add an unlisted sport as an option

[Rayonthetee]

Why is it on the Ionic I cannot add an activity/sport that is not on the list or at least edit one that is not applicable.

Welcome to the forums!

Add Workout Mode to you shortcuts. You can have up to 7 exercise shortcuts. On your dashboard click on the gear and choose settings. Look for exercise shortcuts. Change to what you want. Make one of these Workout.

Then sync the device so it shows on the devise itself

Use this for things that are not listed. It can be rename after it syncs. If its not in the list you can add a custom exercise to your dashboard and rename it to that too. This is located at the bottom of the exercise tab on the computer

You would think that you could replace or edit the default list (Exercise Shortcuts) to accommodate any user. Silly that you have to go into the web page to edit.

They are so many different exercises out there it would be near impossible to please everyone

[Rayonthetee]

Correct, that is why it would be nice for each person to track their own. Have the default list, but allow people to change or add new ones for their own tracking.

@Rayonthetee what you are looking for is a standard feature of sports watches - custom sports. Very useful feature and I can't imagine not having it (I have beem using the custom sports feature with two different brands). I'm not sure why Fitbit failed to deliver such a feature but my guess is that those devices are not sports watches but activity trackers. However, you may post to Feature Suggestion forum if you want (probably it's already there).
