I just bought an inspire Hr and this morning I realized it's tracking extra steps while I'm driving my school bus. There is no way I walked almost 2,500 steps this morning when I've been driving for most of it. Is there any way to change the sensitivity so that I'm not getting so much of an inaccurate step count?

@BlueBuzz21 Welcome! It's good that the community is growing!
Let me help you with your Inspire HR counting steps while driving a bus. Your device will detect the movement on your arm and translate that movement into steps. There are situations in which your arm may move but you won't be actually walking. For example, this may happen when you are playing the drums, burping a baby or clapping. It can also happen when driving. You can negate these steps by logging a driving activity. You can try wearing your device on your non dominant hand but select that hand as dominant on the device’s settings to make it less sensitive to movement.
Let me know how it goes.
