Stairs

[mtgerh64]

Live in a tri level and climb stairs all day long. Yet my Fitnit doesn't capture that activity. I believe that is because not going high enough to trigger the activity. Can I manually enter this?

Hi, @mtgerh64, if you like you can create a custom activity and log each set of stairs manually.  However it will show in your activity log, not as "floors" on your dashboard, and you will not get any badges.  If you are doing it "all day long" you may find it just too tedious and time consuming to create so many manual activity logs, as in each case you will need to enter the exact start and end time.

The good news is that if you don't bother with manual logs, and even if you aren't getting "floor" credit, your steps will still be counted.  Also, as floors do not contribute to calorie calculations, you won't be losing out on any credit.

Thanks for information on climbing stairs! This helps me to understand better how this works.

It would be helpful to be allowed to manually enter flights climbed. Thank you
