Incorrectly recording sleep

My fit bit thinks I'm sleeping when I'm just sitting on the couch. How do I correct this?

I'm guessing you must be using a tracker without heart rate monitor.

They can consider at least an hour of inactivity as sleep.  I would think if you just wave that arm around occasionally, that would be enough to let it realize you are awake.

Before posting, re-read to see if it would make sense to someone else not looking at your Fitbit or phone.

No, I do have the heart rate version tracker. I guess waving my arm around might work but I'm hoping for a more consistent and reliable solution.
