Versa worked well for about a week. I've had it for 3 now. It stopped tracking sleep altogether or when it does it is wildly inaccurate. Auto recognizes walks and says Ive burned between 200-300 calories but when I take a 60 minute bootcamp style class it says that I burned 130 calories. Not sure why it isn't tracking properly. Ive cleaned the sensor multiple times which helps for a few hours. I can't wear it in it the shower anymore either because it auto recognizes my activity as "swimming". It doesn't count stairs properly and it almost never recognizes my heart rate. I know Fitbits arent totally accurate, and thats fine, but $200 for what is now just a digital watch that drains my phone battery is ridiculous.

Restart is the first and easiest thing to try for any problem.
I find it generally more reliable and accurate to use the Exercise app to manually start and stop any workout, rather than count on auto-recognition. This assures that you get credit for the full length of the workout, and you specify the exercise type rather than relying on the tracker to correctly recognize the activity.
See How do I track my workouts with my Fitbit device?

I manually started my 6 mile walk this morning, and it only registered 1 mile . . .
