Was getting ready for work this morning and was moving my arms, sometimes I would take a few steps but for some reason my Versa thought that I was walking and now I have 2000  steps more than my phone step tracker.Does anyone know how to make sure that it doesn't track my arms? I wish there was a way where you can set it to your own walk like a set type of things

Unfortunately there isn’t a way to make it stop tracking arm movements but you should be able to change the setting from non dominant hand to dominant. From what I gather changing it to your dominant hand makes it a bit less sensitive to movements.
