Hello,

 

Is it the number of steps, miles, or calories burned that are not matching up?  A good test for accuracy is to walk a known distance on a treadmill or walking track and see if the total distance recorded matches.

It's the steps and miles that don't match.  I did however go into the fitbit app and record the stride length that is in the argus.  Today I will figure out my real stride length but I'll see if putting in a stride length changes.  I know that I walk 8 times around a quarter mile track and the fitbit says I go 1 1/3 miles.
