Add indoorcycling

[19leus97]

I would like to get new excercise apps like indoorcycling and workout excercise which is not based on intervals. It would be really helpful to track individual workouts in gym or at home based on our own tempo, or based on apps with video excercises.

@19leus97 @rlyun Thanks for your suggestions.

I agree it would be cool having more exercise apps. We'll see what other Community members think.

As for indoor cycling, this is called Spinning and is available for your tracker.

[19leus97]

I know, I found it. But I would like to get more shortcuts. Why should I erase one of my activity to pin a new one?

Would be nice to have app for Stationary Bike,  so many people are using them a nice quiet way to get in a work out without the hassle of going to a gym.

I know have to put my phone in my pocket and take the reading from the phone not my Fitbit it does syc to my Fibit but never really sure if is correct.

Thank you

@redd508b I'm not understanding the comment on your phone. Your tracker does have a mode called spinning. This is what the exercise in an exercise stationary bike is called.

Hello Thank you for your reply.  Where and how do I get this (spinning) app that you mention?
As for my phone it's syc with my Fitbit when I use my bike it does record steps for my Fitbit but as I said not sure it very accurate.
Thank you

@redd508b this is explained in the FAQ. I have to leave for work.

Agree more exercise apps. I would like to see the stationary rower.

[Sdp1970]

Please can we have a stationary bike exercise option, not spinning, on the versa. The normal cycling option isn't suitable for gym based  stationary biking. Thanks.

[Rich_Laue]

@fls29 your Versa does have a spinning option. The procedure to add spinning is the same procedure used when adding spinning to the Charge 3.

How do I track my workouts with my Fitbit device?

[LisaHumphreys]

That's great! Thank you, I don't think it was there when I first got the
versa, great it's there now!

[Rich_Laue]

@fls29 spinning has always been available on every tracker. However the user needs to add it since it does not get added by default. 

See question two of the FAQ. This is added the same way as it was added to the Charge 3.
