This morning ran I 7 miles (11.3km) on the treadmill however my Fitbit has only recorded 7.79km. I can’t seem to find a way to manually amend the distance in the app as I would like it to be an accurate recording of the run. Is there any way to fix this?

I'm sorry but there is not a way to edit it. You could add another record with the added miles if you choose.

 

Also you not covering an exact distance because you are not moving forward. So it will never be accurate

When I train, i run at different speeds on the treadmill, I've changed the stride legth but it's never accurate. Would be simpler to be able to manually input the distance afer I'm done.
