This morning I did a brief (4 minutes) exercise challenge. I rapid tapped my flex to put into "activity mode" and it successfully recorded it as an activity. However, it was not counted in my weekly exercise count (x out of 7 days). 

Previously I had manually added the exercise and that would count towards my weekly, but then I remembered this "trick" and thought I would save myself some time. 

I have already reset my flex, closed out of app & relogged in, and my version of the app is up to date.

Any suggestions/thoughts? Thanks!

Hello @SunsetRunner, I hope you're doing well, it's nice to see you around the Fitbit Community! Smiley Happy

 

Please note that auto-detected exercises that are less than 10 minutes long won't count for your daily exercise count. They will count only if they exceed 10 minutes or are manually logged in. 

 

I hope this resolves your inquiry, if there's anything else I can do for you, please feel free to reply. Smiley Wink

Thanks for the reply. I will have to try it out when I am doing 10 minutes or more. I wonder if it will actually count towards my weekly exercise goal since I am using a Flex and it technically doesn't have the auto detect and I am putting it into "activity mode" myself.
