Hello @Manojkumar542 and welcome to the Fitbit Community 

I see you have questions about your Fitbit Inspire HR counting steps while riding your bike as well as traveling in transport. On bumpy roads or in a car driving your device may add some steps due to your arms moving to steer your bike/vehicle and even vibration. For most individuals, the number of extra steps added when driving or riding your bike are really not that significant when compared to your overall stats. If you want to remove the steps from your daily total, manually log the driving activity for the time you were in a vehicle or when your riding your bike will help negate those steps counted. Look here on how to alter the time period your driving/biking to help negate those steps:https://help.fitbit.com/articles/en_US/Help_article/1306?q=driving&l=en_US&fs=Search&pn=1

 

😃 please let me know if this did provides you with a resolution to your question by tapping the  “best answer“ box under my post. Doing so helps others who are seeking answers to questions similar to your own. I’d appreciate it.
