I have noticed when I use my Fitbit versa exercise tracker on gym machines, my Fitbit summary is very different than the gym machines. Is the Fitbit versa more accurate than the machine summaries? 

 

I just just use it for stair master, elliptical, and treadmill. 

 

 

FYI difference is mainly calories (not too concerned about heart rate difference). 

 

Thank you!

I would think Fitbit would be more accurate since it has more information about you.

I don't know about your machines, but if you don't enter at least your weight, it could only be for someone of the "standard" weight the machine is calculating for.

Before posting, re-read to see if it would make sense to someone else not looking at your Fitbit or phone.
