Please add roller blading to the activities on the Fitbit Blaze
Moderator Edit: Clarified subject and label
This is needed because:
I enjoy rollerblading and often use it as a warm-up cardio for my workouts, as well as general transportation and hobby. It would be great if I could track it as well.
Hi @PetraAlexis, thanks for taking the time to share your feedback with us, this feature suggestion already exists so I’ve moved your post here as it is not currently planned.
None of the apps' exercise options capture skating like it should. Workoit mode had the steps and calories much much lower than any other app I have used specifically for skating. Like half the amount. Please and thank you.
Hi @Hapinez77. Thanks for taking the time to explain why you'd like to have skating or rollerblading as part of the exercise shortcuts. This feature suggestion already exists, so I’ve moved your post here. While this isn't currently planned at this moment, we have left voting open so we can keep tracking this request over time.

Please include GPS tracking, the current method is completely inaccurate, logging less than half the distance I skate. You're really going to have to up your game if you ever want me to upgrade this device. 5 years of ignoring this suggestion.... Wrong.
Hi @FlyingsCool, thanks for taking the time to share your feedback about adding Rollerblading and Ice Skating to the list of activities. This feature suggestion already exists so I’ve moved your post here as it is not currently planned.
My main sport is rollerskating in summer making long tracks and ice skating in winter and also some rollerobics in between. It really would be beneficial for fitbit te add a skating exercise which is able to track distance and km per hour/speed. This is only available for running and biking now. It really would be great to have this for skating or a general workout that tracks distance and speed. The general workout now does not track distance and speed. And this is not usefull for skating. Also runing or bikinng is completely different then skating. I would like to be able to logg these exercises differently. Skating is really a sport in its own right and is different then all the exercises that are available at the moment in the app. Please fitbit I think alot of people are waiting for this option. There are alot of skaters amongst us. I really love fitbit and being able to wear something comfortable during skating like the Inspire HR is a great plus. Please add this exercise. ❤️

Whether you add this as an execrcise or keep it as an activity you have to edit to get it recognized, please at least add an editable mileage field to the Rollerblading activity/exercise, or, allow it to be obtained from GPS (on my Charge 3, too please, I have not yet figured out how to get GPS to work with my Charge 3). I'd like to keep track of my mileage and performance based on that mileage. I'd bet also that you guys could figure out some stats you could calculate based on that stat combined with heart rate, oxygen, etc.
Hi @Arminirl, thanks for explaining why you would like to have the option to add Roller Blading or Skating/Ice skating as exercise. I've moved it into a similar suggestion which has been updated as "Under Consideration". You can learn more about it here. I hope to see you around.
I would love it if fitbit adds more excercices and absolutely roller skating and badminton. It would make the watch sooo much better than it already is.
Hi @silkemestdagh, thanks for explaining why you would like to add Roller Blading as exercise. I've moved it into a similar suggestion which has been updated as "Under Consideration". I hope to see you around. You can also check this other request: Add Badminton.
It would be great to be able to track roller skating like I could running/biking/etc. as an exercise shortcut on my Charge 2, so I don't have to go into the app and recategorize my sessions afterward.
Hi @vaughanclare, thanks for explaining why you would like to have the option to see roller skating as exercise on your Fitbit Charge 2. I've moved it into a similar suggestion which has been updated as "Under Consideration". I hope to see you around.
