Upgraded to Fitbit Sense and unable to select Stationary Bike or Spinning in list of activities to record during activity.
Seems to be available on items such as Fitbit Charge.
Used to put my old Versa Lite down my sock when using stationary bike.

@Lambo54   Your screenshot didn't come through.  You mention the Fitbit app.  The Sense is very different from other Fitbits.  All of the Exercise Shortcuts are on the device.  Tap on the Exercise icon on your Sense.  There are 21 shortcuts in alphabetical order.  Swipe up until you get to Spinning.  When you choose Spinning, or anything else, you will see a tiny "^" at the bottom of the screen.  Swipe up on that to get to specific settings for the exercise like goal settings, heart zone notifications, laps (for running), etc.

 

The first time you use the Exercise app, all the shortcuts are in alphabetical order.  After you use one, the list get broken down into Recent and everything else.  You device stores up to three shortcuts in the Recent list.

Hi there, @Lambo54.

I've moved your post to the Sense board as this is most likely an issue and not a feature suggestion. Thanks for the details provided and your feedback about our Fitbit device. Let me clarify your watch has up to 20 exercises available to choose from including Spinning. I understand you've tried this, but could you confirm if you see the options described here when opening the Exercise app on your Sense? Please note the order might be different.

If by any chance Spinning is still not appearing, let me suggest restarting your watch to refresh its performance. Then, sync with the Fitbit app and let me know how it goes.

Hi
As the attached screenshot shows my options in the IOS Fitbit app are
limited and don’t include Spinning.

As with my Versa Lite I record my equivalent steps on my exercise bike by
wrapping the watch around my ankle, inside my sock.

Regards

Hi there, @Lambo54.

Thanks for the details. It seems the picture wasn't attached in your reply, but in case you want to try one more time, check this post and follow the steps described in there.

As a side note, because your post wasn't clear, may I know if your Sense is recording your activities correctly? Please make sure to wear it snug on your wrist as described here and don't hesitate to let me know if you have another question.
