Can I track steps when using a walker?

[Juno68]

I am currently recovering from surgery and using a walker - is there a way to have my Fitbit track steps?

Hi, @Juno68! Glad to hear you're recovering. Wearing the tracker on your wrist is likely to pick up some, but not all of your steps. There are some alternates you can try, depending on what information you value. You could tuck it into a pocket or something like that, which would be more likely to pick up steps, but you would lose heart rate. You could also try wrapping it around an ankle. This would likely pick up steps and heart rate, but you wouldn't be able to check it easily. Hope this helps!

Thank you!
