I go for a bike ride every day  twice a day. I take my dog with me so the pace is very slow. (walking speed) .

 

Could this cause my fitbit to not pick up on the activity? My heartbeat is significantly higher because we do sprints in between.

 

How does the versa 2 recognize cycling? Am I doing it wrong by going too slow?

Hi @Marr90 , go to https://www.fitbit.com on your computer and you'll see the Fitbit Dashboard (of course only when you're logged in on your Fitbit account). On top of the screen on the right side you see the settings icon. Press that and press settings again in the unfolded menu. On the left side of the new screen, you'll see "Versa 2" and press that. Scroll down on thet page untill you see "automatic exercise recognition", which shoul be "on". Press the downward arrow on the right side of it and you will see all the exercise options, including "outdoor bike". You can ignore execrcises or, as in your case, set a minumum amount of time for the exercise to be recognized automatically. 10 mins is the minimum. Press now on top of the screen on the left side the "back arrow" , bringing you back to the home screen of the settings. Scroll down to the bottom of the page and press "submit". Hope this helps, regards kuzibri
