When I go the park to walk I usually use the weekly exercise tracker on my Fitbit app on the dashboard where it tracks your total time and avg pace and miles walked. I do not stop while walking but when I finish it will give me a different time for my active minutes then what the time listed. Like this morning I walked 63 mins and 15 seconds. When I stopped the exercise tracker it gave me the # of steps and calories burned and for active mins it listed 62 active mins. I have noticed quite a bit where total time walked and active mins for that particular walk is off by 1 min. Not that it is an issue just wondering if i am missing something.

@smp429 Welcome to the Fitbit family! Thanks for posting the experience you have had with actives minutes tracked with your One.
I think you are not missing anything. Active minutes may vary. I mean, they are not always the same amount as the total time your exercise took. This is because active minutes get tracked when you reach an MET (metabolic equivalents) of 3, which means that you are performing a moderate to intense kind of activity. You may not be on this intensity for the whole run. However, your tracker will track that out. You can check more details on this helpful article.
If you really feel that your tracker is not being accurate; please perform a restart on it. That usually helps when stats are not being tracked correctly.
Hope this helps. Keep me posted!
