Anyone else’s Fitbit recognise putting laundry away as swimming?!

[Mydarlingsleepthief]

Very random but it always recognises when I do this as swimming! I find it very hard to believe that my putting laundry away burnt that many calories

[CaptainMyCaptain]

Mine thought me using a sewing machine very fast to make curtains was running.

Mine picks up crocheting as steps

[CaptainMyCaptain]

That's fast crocheting!

[SDTGisAnEvilWolefGenius]

Mine counts knitting as steps.

[Mydarlingsleepthief]

Ha ha brilliant! I guess they aren’t particularly accurate then

[HipHopBanzai]

Mine thought I'd been swimming. I'd actually been doing the big shop at the supermarket!

[Igotmyholiday]

Ironing is picked up as swimming on mine

[doctorhamster]

Mine adds on steps when I use my indicators in the car. Only when turning right though, not left. I could easily run a marathon just by driving round in circles.

Mine used to think I was riding a bike when I was pushing a pushchair.

[boredinthouse]

I was in the waiting room for the dentist and I was so scared. My Fitbit thought I was on a run!

Mine used to think I was riding a bike when I was pushing a pushchair.

Me too! And it counts cleaning the whiteboard as steps.

I remember going out early one night and throwing some impressive moves on the dance floor. My Fitbit has me as playing basketball for an hour!! God knows what I must have looked like

[ladygracie]

I made my daughters bed and it thought I’d been swimming! Also sometimes it counts steps when I am driving!

[GammyLeg]

I can easily add 10k steps at a good drumming session!

[WaffleCash]

That seems quite random, I do a lot of swimming which it always recognises correctly, I've never had it think I was swimming when I was doing something else.

On the other hand, whenever I have a courtesy car from the garage it thinks i'm riding a bike. It never does this when I'm in my own car.

My Galaxy watch records housework as a workout. I don't clean energetically or anything.

[Stopyourmessingaround]

Mine quite often thinks I've been cycling when I'm driving and logs changing the beds as an aerobic activity.

[TonTonMacoute]

Mine thinks that when I do the washing up I am, in fact, riding a bike.

[RoseMartha]

No but it thought driving the car was cycling!

[ChalkDinosaur]

Mine thinks driving in heavy traffic is 'outdoor cycling'.

[MrsMaglev]

Pray and driving are biking
Playing guitar is running!

[MrsMaglev]

Haha 'pram' I'm sure praying would also be 'outdoor activity' or something

[Gloomandglow]

Mine thought I was on a cross trainer when I painted the bathroom

[WunWun]

On the other side, I have been to the gym or an exercise class every day so far this week and it hasn't registered as exercise at all. I can barely move my arms today.

[Aroundtheworldin80moves]

Played musical statues. Swimming.

I've started having it my pocket as I was getting a rash. It seems a lot more accurate.
