Can you please add skating or hockey as an activity? The step and activity tracking is way off when trying to track someone that plays a lot of hockey or skates.
Please vote for the suggestion below, so that perhaps Fitbit will listen to their users, about adding some other exercises options in the activity shortcut. It's obviously a want from people, dating back to 2015 and would be such a simple software upgrade. Puzzled as to why Fitbit has not implemented this yet.
I'd also really appreciate an inline skating as an activity. My Charge 2 has elliptical and treadmill (which I've never used) so why not add something which is actually a sport like skating!
Not only does it need an Inline skating mode but it also would be good if it supported Connected GPS to track elevation and other parameters in this Skating mode.
I like rollerblading and would love seeing a sport category for skating. I have been using the workout feature for the heart rate monitoring but I would really like the gps added without the pace feature of running/walking.
Please add some skating categories to your list. In particular Roller Derby and Outdoor Skating (with Blades & Quads listed seperately as Quades have at least double the resistance of blades, therefore require more effort over the same distance) - if this is too complex then Perhaps introduce various skating intensities (low, moderate, high) instead...
Please add Roller Blading (inline skating) as an exercise option. Roller Blading is a very popular form of exercise around the country, and it's a great workout. It is different from running or biking, so I'd like to have that option available on my Surge. I like to mix up my cardio and roller blading is one of my favorites.
Hi everyone, thanks for sharing this suggestion. We're always striving to enhance Fitbit products and services, and we appreciate all of the input we receive from our customers. We do not currently have plans to release this feature. You can learn more about how Fitbit decides what suggestions get released in our FAQs located at the top right box of the Feature Suggestions Board screen. For now, we will leave this suggestion open for votes (and closed to comments) so that we can continue to track community demand over time. Thanks for taking the time to share your feedback with us and we will let you know if anything changes.
I'd be interested in having a quick shortcut for me to start up on my Versa when I'm rollerblading indoors as well as outdoors.
It would be great to be able to track rollerblading in the fitbit app from my tracker (and not just hope that it auto tracks a sport and allows me to edit the name of the exercise).
For example, currently I use Map My Ride for outdoors rollerblading which is fine and syncs to Fitbit but is battery draining and doesn't save the GPS map to the fitbit app - it would be nice just to be able to do it straight from my Versa and have the map come up under exercises as it does with running.
I also rollerblade indoors at a roller rink and it would be nice if I could set it to start and see how many laps of the rink I do in a certain time - this would be without GPS.
Sometime the auto logging picks it up as 'walking' but sometimes it doesn't at all.
It would be really nice to rely on less on other apps and just use fitbit.
