With fitbit I reach effortlessly 10,000 steps a day. With other watches I mostly failed to do so.

Yea, it counts even when I'm just moving my arms. Is it supposed to do that?

It is not supposed to do that as that is not a step, in previous fitbits you could adjust the stridelenght, i have not found this option yet in the sense.. so if anyone know how to fix this? please?
