Add an app for Indoor Rowing machine.

I’m hoping someday Fitbit will include indoor rowing machine apps, like Live Rowing. Something that will sync my Fitbit to my concept2 rower.

I use the concept rower 4 days a week and would love it Fitbit could track that exercise as well.  I have seen workarounds but they are not accurate. 😞

Best Answer
Same! I use the Live Rowing app and take those results and manually input
it into my Fitbit app.
For now...
Maybe someday Fitbit will be able to add this activity.
Best Answer

How and which data are you input manually after indoor rowing workout? I just started to use Versa and realised that there is no rowing workout tracking although I saw in some YT video both, rowing and indoor rowing

Best Answer
Well
Tap on the weekly activities icon on the dashboard
In the upper right hand corner there is a stopwatch
Tap on it
Enter your activity (indoor rowing) and select it.
It’ll ask you start time. Try to be accurate about this so it will
correlate with your heart rate.
Input minutes and calories burned from your rowing machine or rowing app
and then save and VOILA.
Should be good to go:)
Hope this helps!

I love the Concept2 I use the Erg and the Ski Erg. It would be great if any app include both not just for rowing.

Best Answer

It's been over a year since this original post.  Has any consideration been given to adding Rowing/Indoor Rowing/Rowing Machine as an activity shortcut?

Best Answer

Please add rowing machine to the fitbit app please. 

Best Answer

Rowing application that would also work with the Concept 2 monitor would be very helpful.

Best Answer

Yes, sadly if I had known the new versa 2 would not have an app to track my activity on my concept 2 I would not have bought it.  Shame on me for not determining that. Buyer beware.  I hope that Fitbit fixes the deficiency very very soon.  Does not appear that they care.

I would also like to add a "vote" for this functionality

In the meantime you could just use the workout option under exercise

It's a critical training unit!

Concept2 is the most common unit. but a gym is not a gym without an erg!
