Welcome on board @Katatina, it's nice to see you here! Users can choose from over 15 exercise types—including run, interval workout, swim, and yoga, to customize the app with your favorite workouts. If a specific exercise isn’t available, choose workout as your exercise type.
Fitbit app:
- From the Fitbit app dashboard, tap the Account icon > your device image.
- Tap Exercise Shortcuts.
- To add a new exercise shortcut, tap the + icon and select an exercise.
- To remove an exercise shortcut, swipe left on a shortcut (on Windows 10, tap the trashcan icon).
- To reorder an exercise shortcut, press and hold a shortcut, then drag it up or down to change its position.
- Sync your device.
Fitbit.com Dashboard:
- Log in to your fitbit.com dashboard and click the gear icon in the top right corner.
- Click Settings > Devices.
- Scroll down to Exercise Shortcuts.
- Click Edit Exercise Shortcuts to choose the exercises you want on your device. Then click Save.
- Click and drag the Row Reorder icons to change the order of the exercises on your device.
- Sync your device.
Hope this helps, let me know if you need further assistance!

I would choose it as "workout" and then you can go into the dashboard and rename it when you're done with the exercise. It's going to calculate calories the same regardless of what it's named.

Responding to the recommended way to add to the exercise choice list.
there is no “gear” at the upper left in the dashboard mode. I have the tracker 3. I need to add stationary bike to my choices. when Exercising I have been putting the. Tracker on the pedal. Not wearing it on my arm. As it does not register as exercise. I have been adding it manually under bike but that’s not very accurate. Please help.

Biking only registers through a GPS, so when you're on a stationary bike, you're not moving. Treadmill may be a better option.

What if you don't have "exercise shortcut" icon? Under goals It just says "exercise" and when I tap on it. It takes me to exercises that came with the Fitbit. I have no option to change and add. I'm looking to add my personalized HIIT workout.

Does the 15 include rowing? I currently use a charge 2 and keep getting offers to up grade, as I row a lot that would tip me over the edge I think
Thanks

Use a computer. You should have the options.
