Where is the best place to wear my fitbit one as it seem to not to record about 10% of my steps. I normally wear it on my trouser waistband above my left knee.

I have used it in my pocket, but usually clip it to my pocket with the clip showing on the outside of my pocket.

If I may ask, with what are you comparing it to determine it is off by 10%? It could be that the other tracker was high on steps. My Fitbit One is very accurate based on comparing it to known mile markers on the road.

I base my discrepancy on me physically counting the steps I take.  I have counted small amounts (less than 50) and often find it down but I have also counted several hundred and it averages that I "lose" between 7 and 12% of the steps I have taken.
