Able to manually edit Active Zone Minutes

When I manually log an activity that my device recorded but the app does not reflect, I can add distance and time but not active zone minutes. For example, a walk that Fitbit automatically logged was 102 zone minutes. The walk that I needed to manually log had been over 350 zone minutes, but I was not able to add those. Total s/b 452, not 102.

As an ROG (retired old guy) my main form of exercise is cycling, from road, gravel and mountain bike. I have a charge 5 tracker and really appreciate it, but the heart rate /zone minutes can be off by 50%, or more, on many of my rides. I know this to be true as I also track my heart rate with my cycle computer (Wahoo Element Bolt). I have all the zones on my computer alined with my charge 5 so that data should match up relatively close. I have done all the suggestions from fitbit and any other sources to improve this, but to no avail. My last training ride, which prompted me to contact you, showed only 50 zone minutes on my fitbit, whereas using my computer data it should have been over 180. So, my major concern is that large of a discrepancy is negatively affecting the data from my fitbit. I would love to be able to manually adjust any inaccurate zone minutes on my fitbit to be more trusting of the feedback from my charge 5 and the Fitbit app.

Thank you for making such a an amazing product!!
