Stride Count

Since getting my Sense on 12-14-2020 I have using my other  smartwatch (ITouch Air SE) comparing the step count and floor count, since that is a very important feature for me. The Sense and the Itouch were reporting very different numbers, so I used my morning walk to better gauge the numbers.

I used the starting count and ending count as the watch shows and my actual pace count as I walked ( probably off a bit) after someone on Support Chat instructed me as how to set the Stride Length (set at 76 inches) the numbers after my walk were only off by a negligible amount.

Any one else using their fit for walks and how are your numbers coming up?

@cplmckenzie I also had to adjust my stride length. This is expected. 😊

Yes expected,but I had to set mine at 76 inches (that's 6.3 feet) just to
get close

Changing your stride count will not affect the actual steps counted. 

To check the steps counted do a step count test. 

Take a walk and use you mind or an event counter to count your steps, then compare with what Fitbit recorded. 

Changing the stride will only change the recorded distance.
