Inaccurate Active Minutes?

[FTPinPDX]

My Fitbit One adds the time spent on long walks to its Active Minutes total, but it's not seeing my minutes on the eliptical (it does count the steps though). Is there an adjustment that'll fix that?

Hello there @FTPinPDX, welcome aboard to our Community. Keep in mind that the One is not designed to track your elliptical exercise, so the accuracy will be lower.

My recommendation is to press and hold the button of your One to start an activity record. Also you can add a manual activity on your Dashboard to improve the accuracy of this activity's contribution to your caloric burn and active minutes.

To create a manual activity: 

1. Go to the Activities page by clicking Log at the top of your dashboard, then click Activities. 
2. Under Log Activities, click a common activity or search for your activity in the search box. 
3. Select your activity from the search results. If the activity is not in our system, you have the option to create your own activity by clicking the Create custom activity text that will appear below the search field. 
4. Enter the duration, distance (if applicable), and start time of your activity. You have the option to manually enter the number of calories burned here if you'd like to. 
5. Click Log Activity. Your activity will now be visible and editable in the Logged Activities area.

Hope it helps and see you around.
