Adding snowshoeing to exercise menu

[EvieAu]

• How can I add an exercise selection such as snowshoeing to my Versa 2 watch?

Hello @EvieAu and welcome to the Community.  I'm sorry, but there is no snowshoeing shortcut to add.  Personally, I use the Hike shortcut when snowshoeing.

I was using the hiking option as that matched closest to what I was doing,
yet when cutting trails, the workout is much more exerting and intense. I
was hoping it can be added, along with the different types ie cutting
trails as opposed to just using established community trails Thank you
kindly for your response and advice! Much appreciated! Have a great
day!! 🙂

Welcome to the Fitbit Community, @EvieAu. Thank you for sharing your snowshoeing inquiry.

As @LZeeW mentioned, there's no shortcut with this name right now. You can also register it as Workout. 

Thank you for your suggestion and comments @LZeeW.

Keep on visiting the forums.

@EvieAu   I know exactly how you feel about cutting trails.  Fitbit's calorie burn algorithms are heart rate based.  I see different calorie burns depending on conditions.  Fitbit seems to be very reluctant to add new shortcuts.

I'm not sure if the Workout option is a good choice for snowshoeing.  Workout is the only shortcut that lets you change the name after you are done.  I wear a Versa 3 and Workout isn't a GPS exercise on the Versa 3.  I don't know about the Versa 2.
