How do I edit my exercise?

Replies are disabled for this topic. Start a new one or visit our Help Center.

Fitbit, can we please have a manual way to edit running distance? With connected GPS being off by miles and that then messing up what my automatic stride length for treadmill running (making a 3 mi run in to a 0.86 mi run!), all of my running exercises are way off.

 

This is also throwing off my cardio health measure because it looks like my heart rate is super high for a shorter than mile run. Anyone got a fix suggestion for this? The Versa is very slowly starting to become kinda useless.

The pencil icon is not available for any of my recorded exercises 😞
I am an Android user.

Exactly the same issue here... had my Charge 5 for a few weeks, and frequently start an activity on the device and forget to stop it at the end. Trying to edit on Android or Web does not work. I CANNOT believe how long this has apparently been an issue. I just assumed editing an activity would be a basic feature of one of the supposedly most advanced trackers available. My first Fitbit, and not a great initial experience...

Tip. Log everything as a 'workout' then you  an always edit it later. Don't use any of the other logging options if you want editing capabilities.

Also looking for this. Logged weight lifting for the zone minutes/cardio but forgot to end the tracking on my watch. Now I have a skewed exercise period I cant edit to be more accurate. I know you can manually log activities but this is not good enough, I need to be able to add zone minutes, hr, steps etc. I'm on an android device and cant edit the activity duration on either my phone or the web dashboard.

Please fix this, I should be able to just change the duration of my logged workout and have it recalculate my stats. There's no reason apple/other phones can have this but not android devices, and I am really confused as to why I cant do this on the web dashboard. Again, -please- fix this.

I can't believe that editing activities starting and ending time (and distance) is not possible (Android, web) to edit. When I forget or fail (can't see watch's screen so well anymore) to end my activity and drive home, this happens every now and then, my stats are ruined. Basically then you are then lying to me that I am in such good condition etc. cross-country skiing 30 km/h and low heart rate etc. I thought Fitbit is committed to produce good quality data for the users. This is something I can't accept and will stop using Pixel Watch and Fitbit soon if nothing happens, regretting that even bought one. Creating activity manually afterwards is not an option either.

I quit using a fitbit years ago. Eat and move mindfully, it's better for you.

If I could edit the name of be happy, the exercise is auto detected but if that's not accurate (i.e. it things in swimming when I'm paddleboarding) then there's no way to edit it
