I recently bought a sense 2, and have realised that my impressive step count each day is not all from my walking, as it is counting steps while I am driving. I am driving start-stop all day with walking in between so it would be very impractical to manually input driving time. Is there still no fix to what seems to be a problem that has been happening for years with various Fitbits??

Welcome to the Fitbit community, @Noisypete!

Sad to hear that you're having issues with your Sense 2's step tracking. Please be aware that your Sense 2 needs to know you to give you as much accuracy on step tracking as possible for such a device. So make sure you've entered your height, weight, sex, and age correctly. Also doing some walking exercises using GPS will improve step counting as your device will calculate your stride length on that over time. You'll have to start these exercises manually to do so.
