Hello,

it's been a few days that my fitbit versa counts more active minutes than the real one done. I'm sure of this because I put it on in the morning in the moment I leave the house for my morning walk and I always stay out 45/50 minutes but it marks at least 65 minutes. For example today I left home at 7.24, at 8.26 I was at work (after 15 minutes of car) and the fitbit said I had done 75 minutes active (that is impossible because I didn't even wear the fitbit for 75 minutes).
Can someone help me?
Thanks

You say 'Active Minutes', but don't you actually mean 'Active Zone Minutes' on the V2?  With (active) zone minutes, time in cardio or peak counts double.

See What are Active Zone Minutes or active minutes on my Fitbit device? 

or just tap on 'Zone Minutes' on phone app and read about it.

Before posting, re-read to see if it would make sense to someone else not looking at your Fitbit or phone.

Hi Johnny and thank you for the answer.

Honestly I didn't know that in cardio zone minutes were counted double, that explains my total minutes
