My Fitbit is counting steps while I’m driving. How do I avoid this?

Welcome to the Community, @Gwench.

 

Keep in mind that the wrist trackers count steps depending on the movement of your arms, when you are driving or for example when your tracker is close to a fan, it counts steps due to the vibrations. You can learn more about how your Fitbit tracks steps by checking the article: How accurate are Fitbit devices?.

 

Now about your inquiry, there are 2 ways you can prevent this:

  1. You can plug your tracker into the charging cable while you are driving, the Fitbit will not count steps while it is charging.  
  2. You can log the driving manually by following the steps in this article.

 

Let me know how it goes.
