Thousands of Steps While Sleeping

Replies are disabled for this topic. Start a new one or visit our Help Center.

Every few months, I wake up to my Fitbit One adding thousands of steps while I am sleeping. Last night, between midnight and 6:55, it added 300 steps every 5 minutes and I woke up to having 28,000 steps. I am not wearing it when I sleep, it is sitting on the table next to me. It seems to happen randomly and not associated with charge levels or syncing. 

I closely track my steps so suddenly having an extra 28K steps is big inconvenience. Is there anything I can do to stop this from happening? And is there any way to remove the false steps so they aren't tracked in my reports?

Was it possible that you were sleep walking?

and otherwise, try spresseting the Fitbit by holding the button on the one for around 20 seconds.

And if it continues to happen, request a new one from fitbit
