Last week I drove 1008 miles from Denver to Chicago and stopped only twice, just for gas and to use the ladies room.  My versa 2 congratulated me for logging over 20,000 steps while all I was doing was sitting and driving!  What's wrong?  Do I need to return my fitbit for one that works correctly?

That sometimes happens with all of the trackers. Vibrations while driving can cause false readings. To eliminate those steps (and any floors if recorded) manually log driving as an activity for that period of time.

Thank you!  Now, at the risk of sounding totally stupid, how do I "manually log driving as an activity"?  Don't see anything in "settings" for that.
