Hi, Hanna. The tracker will continue to track your activity even in sleep mode. you can make adjustments  to your log, if you like, by looking at the graph. It will show increased activity when you awoke and began to move about. hover over the graph and it shows the time of each active moment.

@hanna287Your data is safe and sound. The only difference between the sleep record and a timed activity is are tghe Filters being used to determine the activity.

With the sleep record the Fitbit senses a predetermined non activity and assumes you are asleep and when you stop the tracker that is your sleep record.

You can Log into your Sleep activity and edit that record and you will see your steps etc will be shown correctly in your Activity log. Hover over the record and the edit and trash can appears.

You will notice when you edit the sleep record there is an option to change the whole record to an activity record..... Reason: In the early days of Fitbit, Fitbitters were setting there trackers to record an activity and they had a sedentary time near the start of that activity..... Then there was panic, I have lost my activity record and it was in the Sleep log area. Hence the option to swap the record type.

See how you go.

Thanks, I've been trying to figure out how to fix it when I accidently bump my fitbit and it goes into sleep mode
