I am using Versa three to check my minutes for Tennis and Pickleball. When I play tennis, I can change my excercise to “Tennis” but when I play Pickleball, it is not recognized as a sport or exercise. Can Fitbit please add Pickleball to their list of recognized sports?

Hi there, @thehiggs. Welcome to the Community Forums. 

 

When a specific exercise is not available within the exercises we offer, we suggest to use "Workout" (which is a generic catch-all for other types of exercise). Once you finish the activity, you can rename the activity to desired exercise/activity. Please note that the amount of calories burned vary from the exercise you're performing and due to the heart rate tracked by your Versa 3.

 

Note that the information to enter will change depending on the nature of the exercise. To give you an example, if I change from "Workout" to "Run", it won't remove the calories but will add distance as the main stat to be displayed, this happen depending of the activity you are categorizing. However, my data already tracked will be still counted for my daily totals.

 

For more information about how to do so, see How do I add, edit, or delete Fitbit data and activities?

 

Thanks for your suggestion, though. We're constantly striving to improve Fitbit products and services, and we appreciate all of the input we receive from our customers. The best place to make your voice heard is the Feature Suggestion board on our community. To learn more about how Fitbit decides which suggestions get developed, visit our FAQs.

Thanks for your feedback and for participating in our community!

The correct answer would be: “We recognize that pickle ball is the fastest growing sport in the nation and are adding it to our next update.

 

I have passed this community concern to FitBit and they are committed to a solution.”

@Wtt1  The board we are on is for getting help from your fellow fitbit users. 

The correct answer is for one of your fellow fitbit users to point you to the Feature Request. We need votes, this request barely has any activity.
