Hello
From being calculated correctly stairs my Sense calculates the number of stairs incorrectly now. It says I went many, many more than I did. What should I do to correct this so that it is correct?

I have restarted the Sense by pressing and holding the left button until Fitbit logo appears. Not better.

from my understanding the stairs is calculated by a barometer or something like that plus a few other factors but it mostly the barometer thing it can be effected by environmental issue such as cold to hot or hot to cold or moisture in the air like a storm coming in idk a few other things i am sure but it also effected like this  I do a ton of Burppe jump down do a push up jump up i am in constant motion of going down and up and it will record i am going up stairs or flights because it measure the movement as long as it ten feet of movement it records that as a flight of stairs so i am only actually dropping down maybe 4 feet and jumping back up 4 feet but i rinse and repeat so next time i go down that makes about 12 feet in total so that counted as one flight because it was a constant motion in progress I could be wrong about this but it seems to be what i have read in these forums over time how that works. Maybe some one else has a better understanding of it then me i am sure but i believe that the gist of it.

The weather has been variable so barometer pressor has changed several times. Still not working. Does anyone have tips on how to fix this?
