I wear my tracker while using my treadmill. Should I manually log my time after I am finished?

Seems like the manual log adds steps. If I manually log is this double counting the steps?

There's no reason to manually log it afterward.  If it doesn't auto-recognize it, use the Exercise App to tell it when you are starting and stopping the workout.

Before posting, re-read to see if it would make sense to someone else not looking at your Fitbit or phone.

Instructions on adding treadmill are found here. 

Can I reorder the exercise shortcuts on my Fitbit device?

Thanks for the reply. I don't think my Charge 2 supports the Exercise App, but I did set up my tracker to auto recognize walks and runs.

 

Thanks again.
