   I am a truck driver, and my Fitbit Versa Light logs thousands of steps as I'm driving. 

    Is there a way to prevent this ?  This completely skews my step count, and calories burned.  Any help is appreciated !!

Welcome to the Fitbit Community @Nelson11. Sorry for the delayed response.

 

I'm sorry to hear that your Fitbit Versa Light logs steps when you drive. Thank you for letting us know your job. Your watch has been tested against driving and riding in buses, trains, and other public transportation and shouldn’t add steps when you’re traveling under normal conditions. 

 

However, if you are getting extra steps while on the truck, you can manually log a driving activity to negate them. For more information, please be so kind to visit this article.

 

If you have any question, please let me know.
