In the meantime i switched to the newer fitbit charge hr 2.
Does fitbit charge track floors.
In this case there are a couple of things that may be causing your tracker to record extra floors.
Know your body better by using your tracker with the fitbit app to follow your cycle record symptoms and more.
This story happened to me in 2015 while wearing a fitbit charge hr fitness tracker.
In fact floors do not count for anything floors do not carry any incremental caloric burn value it s just a statistic aimed at keeping people motivated.
Your fitbit charge 2 calculates floors using an altimeter which is a sensor that calculates altitude based on atmospheric pressure.
This is my fourth day of having the fitbit charge 3.
The fitbit charge 4 looks almost identical to the fitbit charge 3 and while the charge 3 did offer an updated design it does still feel a little dated at this point.
Your device uses changes in barometric pressure combined with the steps you take to calculate floors climbed.
Congrats on getting a new charge 2.
I realized this on the second day and looked at the blog and reset it as directed.
And yes it tracks floors.
You ll see that it is a really cool tracker.
Your device registers 1 floor when you climb about 10 feet or 3 meters.
Track activity sleep heart rate and more with multi day battery so you can do more on a single charge secure tap to pay make purchases from charge 4 at millions of stores or transit stations no phone or wallet necessary.
Thanks for taking the time to report the situation you are experiencing with your charge 3 tracking floors.
Though your tracker is designed to look for pressure changes based on elevation gains pressure changes due to other causes such as a gust of wind a weather change or opening a door can occasionally.
It does not register floors when you go down.
Beside that it tracks steps distance calories burn heart rate sleep hourly movements active minutes and it has breathing sessions that you can adjust to 2 or 5 minutes.
Charge 4 tracks all day activity like steps distance floors climbed active zone minutes and calories burned to show how every part of your day gets you closer to your goals.
Only up one floor in my house and already in my fitbit i have 10.
It does not track the floors climbed.
That s not to say that.
It worked for one day i woke up in the morning and it did not work that day then recorded one floor but not the rest.
