The App includes a "Categorize Exercise" feature to change a tracked activity eg "Hike" to Bike, Golf, Hike, Interval Workout, Run or Walk But if I log an activity, the list of options are much wider (eg includes Snowshoeing)
I'd like to see all the loggable activities be options in Categorize Exercise so it's accurate

I agree.   I really miss not having a ski app on my charge 4.   I don't understand why they cant put one one easily.

Hi @unsweetenedca, thanks for explaining why you would like to have the option to add snowshoeing and other activities as an exercise shortcut. Thanks for sharing your feedback. I've moved it into a similar request.  A lot of users are asking for this option, I hope we receive updates soon.

I have a Versa 2 but same idea—I enjoy snowshoeing and would like to select it, though “Hike” works in the meanwhile.

Please add snowshoeing to the list of exercises

I would use this as would many people I know.

 

Further - at least two of us had out fitbits auto record our snowshoeing as swimming. This is totally not an accurate accounting of the exercise.

 

Please develop the snowshoe as an option for exercise.

Snowshoeing should be added for all fitbit products. I have a luxe and there is no snowshoeing option. We snowshoe in Canada in the winter.
