I just bought a fitbit versa and noticed that it is calculating my drive time as workout time and it also increases my steps and floors count.
Would like to see if I would get a solution to fix this issue.

@ABfit Welcome! Thanks for being part of our Community! Sorry to hear that your Versa is counting steps and floors when you are driving. Your tracker will detect the movement on your arm and translate that movement into steps. There are situations in which your arm may move but you won't be actually walking. For example this may happen when you are playing the drums, burping a baby or clapping. It can also happen when driving. You can negate these steps by logging a driving activity. You can try wearing your tracker on your non dominant hand but select that hand as dominant on the tracker’s settings to make it less sensitive to movement.
Let me know how it goes!

Changing the tracker's setting doesn't make a big difference.
