Unable to find exercises I want in the app.

There’s options to track “cleaning” and even “hunting” whatever the heck that entails but no option to track hooping and no option to track just straight up cardio either... Why?

Hello @natalie.nott, have a warm welcome to the Fitbit Community. 

I appreciate your participation in the Forums and for sharing your feedback with us. Please note that even when some exercises are not available in the Fitbit app, you can create your own custom exercises, to help you track your most performed exercises:

To create a Custom Activity:

1. Log into your fitbit.com dashboard.
2. At the top of the page click Log > Activities.
3. Click a common activity or search for one  If the activity is not in our system, create your own by clicking the Create custom activity text that appears below the search field.
4. Enter the duration, distance (if applicable), and start time of your activity. You can enter the number of calories burned if you'd like to.
5. Click Log Activity. Your activity will now be visible and editable in the Logged Activities area.

Once recorded you will be able to select it or search for it when categorizing an exercise. Additionally, I would like to encourage you to submit your insight as a suggested idea, to add your custom exercise where members of the Community can comment and vote for it so it can be implemented in the future.

Feel free to share your suggestion with your friends and family to add more votes and comments, this is the best way to make your voice heard and get the attention from our development team.

I hope this can be helpful, if there's anything else I can do for you, please feel free to reply.

There is no option to create your own custom activity though...

Hello @natalie.nott, I hope you're doing well, thanks for taking the time to reply. 

First of all, I would like to apologize for the delay in the response. Please note that when you go to the Activities Section of the online Dashboard, once you scroll down all the way to the end, you'll be able to see the option to "Create a Custom Activity":

Once you click on this option, you will be asked to fill the Date, Start time, Duration, Distance (optional) and Calories burned. Once logged in, you'll be able to search for that specific activity when you want to log it again. 

I hope this can be helpful, give it a try and let us know the outcome.
