Whenever I fold laundry, my device thinks I went for a swim. This isn't a huge issue except having to notice it in the app to delete. Just wanted to get this out there.

If you never swim, in phone app, tap the exercise tile, then the gear icon near top right, then disable auto-recognized 'Swimming' or anything else you don't want.

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

I do swim daily, but I find the app thinks I've been for a swim when I've been doing the ironing! Must remember to take the fitbit off before I start!

Me too. I change it to cleaning. It’s the closest category I’ve found.
