Fit Zip and sleeping steps

[Texgal57]

Hello,

I take my Fit Zip off at night and put it on the nightstand.  When I wake up in the morning it already has steps on it.  This morning it already had 122 steps.  Anyone know how this is happening?  Is there something I'm doing to cause this?

It's nice to have you here in the Community @Texgal57, hope you're doing great! Is there a fan or other source of vibration nearby? A fan on the nightstand with the fitbit has been reported to cause phantom steps to be recorded by others.

Hope this helps!

MarreFitbit,

Actually I have a white out machine on the same nightstand.  I will move my fitbit to a different location.  

Thank you for the help!

MarreFitbit,

I moved the Fit Zip off the nightstand and when I woke up there were zero steps!  Thank you for help!

Amazing news my friend @Texgal57 , I'm glad to hear we both could figure out what was the issue.
