Add soccer/football to the exercise shortcuts list

[BeefyClyro]

Hi Guys,

Right now there are only a handful of modes and exercising which is very limited. Putting stuff in generic workout does not provide anywhere near accuarate results. E.g. I could be doing a home workout with pauses between reps and sets or I could be running flat out playing football/soccer .. The results should be very different.

I'd like to see Football/Soccer, Squash, Tennis, Cross country. Skiing and Snow shoeing, Rock Climbing Golf and any others you could add, seriously people love choices and the more the merrier.

Thanks,
Keith

Hi @AndreasSport, thanks for explaining why you would like to have the option to see more modes, adding golf, skiing and other activities to the Fitbit app. I've moved it into a similar suggestion which has been updated as "Under Consideration".  I hope to see you around.

Would love to see a workout option for my Charge 4 that tracks sports - I play soccer almost daily and would love to know how many kms I am running during a session. I would just track it as a regular workout but this doesn't track kms. Please add a general sport option for workout - I love that some specific ones are on there (tennis, kickboxing-

Run mode is unsatisfactory..

What I would love is
BPM, distance, GPS
Primary areas covered
Top speed
Acceleration/deceleration
Sprints (speed, number of, distance, location data specifically for those data points)
Register data for 1. and 2. half instead of everything as a whole
# of tackles, turning speed, direction changes etc.
