I understand that it means the number of minutes that I am active.  However, it seems to constantly register 0 active minutes although the walking icon will show 3000 steps.  So why is the fitbit still registering that I am not active? What activates the active minutes? I do a barre workout and still I'll have 0 active minutes?  Or I will be working on my feet doing housecleaning or cooking, 0 active minutes.

 

Any insight you have will be most appreciated.  Thanks

See Active Minutes .

They have a precise definition as described in above link;  a certain level of intensity continuously for at least 10 minutes.

Before posting, re-read to see if it would make sense to someone else not looking at your Fitbit or phone.
