I went cross country skiing yesterday as we had a large snowfall. I was out for over 30 minutes. My fitbit registered the steps and the active minutes but did not register this as an exercise activity. Shouldn't this at least have registered as Sport? Or something at least?

Not sure how fitbit's auto detection works with skiing.

I've been wondering the same thing since last year.  Hours on XC skis and only steps to show.  

Also, on my spin bike I can add inaccurate step counts, and that's expected, but my HR never seems close to accurate unless I sit straight up for a while?  And I never show an activity time either.

Anyone have an idea or suggestion?
