Hi all,

Is there any way to start an exercise via the Fitbit device and to then track progress as you are undertaking the exercise on the Fitbit app ?

I am walking a half-marathon for charity on Saturday and would like to post regular updates on my progress during the walk. It would be cleaner to take screenshots of the app rather than photos of the screen on my device.

Many thanks,

Euan

@Euan_Kellie Welcome to the Fitbit Community! Sorry for the delay in my reply.

 

Let me help you with your inquiry about tracking activities with the app. You could try using the Connected GPS function that will use your phone's GPS data to record your activity. Also when using the exercise mode and after finishing the activity, that activity should show on the app once you have synced your tracker.

 

Let me know how it goes.
