The device on your wrist takes these readings to estimate.
Does fitbit flex 2 count floors.
As wtksk8r mentioned your device registers one floor when you climb about 10 feet at one time.
This is a sensor that measures altitude based on atmospheric pressure.
Not very accurate but the fitbit flex is the best of the bunch.
Fitbit devices that count floors have an altimeter sensor that detects when you go up in elevation.
I have noticed that if i go up the two flights in one continuous trip it will count only one floor.
There s no catch in the stairs.
And yes i did stop to check the result and wasn t running.
Your device uses changes in barometric pressure to detect elevation change and therefore requires that you physically change elevation in order to properly record floors.
Climbed another flight of stairs and check again and the number did not not change.
Your device uses changes in barometric pressure combined with the steps you take to calculate floors climbed.
Fitbit accuracy for floor tracking.
It does not register floors when you go down.
Your device registers one floor when you climb about 10 feet at one time.
My charge hr usually registered 20 floors when i went out for a run.
Does the flex 2 count floors when running outdoors.
If i pause after one floor then make the next flight it will count two.
Your device registers 1 floor when you climb about 10 feet or 3 meters.
Please note that fitbit devices that count floors have an altimeter sensor that can detect when you re going up or down in elevation.
Your device uses changes in barometric pressure combined with the steps you take to calculate floors climbed.
Fitbit devices don t count floors on stationary exercise.
They were around 10 feet.
Fitbit devices do not count the elevation gains simulated from a stairmaster inclined treadmill or other stationary exercise equipment.
Just to knock off that reason as well.
Fitbit devices that count floors have an altimeter sensor that detects when you go up in elevation.
Thanks for bringing this to my attention.
I live in a house which has three floors with two flights of stairs.
Climbed up 2 floors and the count showed 8 when it should have shown 9.
Calories burned accuracy verdict.
Your device registers 1 floor when you climb about 10 feet or 3 meters.
Fitbit devices detect floors using something called an altimeter.
Fitbit devices that count floors have an altimeter sensor that can detect when you re going up or down in elevation.
It does not count floors accurately and i have been trying to determine when it does and doesn t count.
Fitbits allegedly measure how many floors you ve climbed using an altimeter which measures when air pressure decreases slightly.
Affects me too.
