How to convert activities into steps

[xten63]

Rowing is my jam! I have this great rowing machine. I use it four or more times a week about 30 minutes or more that also includes a cool down period. This is the most fantastic exercise I have found for me, but my Fitbit is all over the place on the exercise, like I've walked in circles around my house but doesn't track anything even when I've changed it over to swimming. How can rowing meters be converted into steps? Since November, I've rowed close to 200K meters yet nothing has registered on my Fitbit.

Has anyone done any conversion of other activities to steps, and if so, do you manually enter them once your activity is done, or have you found a way that will convert your activity to steps without having to manually enter them?

Thanks for your input! Oh, and the labels they make you add just to post a message is utter garbage. None apply here!

Thanks for the information provided.

You can add steps to your account by manually logging activities like Walk, Run or Hike in the online Dashboard at fitbit.com. Please be aware these steps don't count towards badges, Lifetime or challenges.

Thank you for your feedback about the labels. This board is meant to talk about Third-Party Integrations (Strava, MyFitnessPal, etc). If you tell me which Fitbit device you have, I can move your post to the right board that contains the right label.

See you around.
