In the Fitbit app in the daily exercise part my Fitbit shows me having done "outdoor bike" several times. I have a job that can be pretty active so I'm assuming its most likely making a guess. My issue is I'm sure the calories burned and all is very innaccurate comparing outdoor biking to what I am actually doing which involves outdoor grounds maintenance.

 

Is there a way to adjust it to be more accurate? Mostly I'd like to get as realistically an ideal of the calories I'm burning as possible.

Just delay those "fake" activities. Fitbit with consider your steps+HR to measure the calories burnt.

@OnimaruWelcome... I get Outdoor Biking smart tracked exercises when I do very active gardening.. I even get Sport when I do pruning and raking...

 

On the outset, I changed all of my Auto Recognition Exercises to 10 minutes to see what would be generated. You can max them out to 90 minutes or Ignore them via the PC Dashboard and device settings.
