I used the exercise app for the treadmill for the first time today. The app on versa was WAY off. I did 4.10 miles. Versa has me at 2.54. Is there something that I need to do to get a correct read?
I learned early (and the hard way) to keep the Fitbit hand moving!
I haven't tried it running outside yet, still too cold for me.
How do you tweak the stride length? I have never done anything with that. Before the Versa, I had my daughters hand me down alta. This is a whole new world to me
Do you know if I can edit the workout so it reflects the correct information?
I figured out my stride and that didn't help at all. Still 2 ish miles off when using the treadmill app. Today I went for a walk using the walk app. it was off but not as much.
I'm having the same problem. I ran on the treadmill, didn't hold onto the bar, and it did not accurately record any of my metrics. Do I also have to carry my phone because thentwhat's the point?
Carrying your phone won’t help. Fitbit iconic measures distance = steps x stride. Unfortunately it does not consider your speed therefore fitbit measured distance is wrong.
