Fitbit accuracy for floor tracking.
Does fitbit flex 2 count floors.
Fitbit devices that count floors have an altimeter sensor that can detect when you re going up or down in elevation.
Fitbit devices do not count the elevation gains simulated from a stairmaster inclined treadmill or other stationary exercise equipment.
As wtksk8r mentioned your device registers one floor when you climb about 10 feet at one time.
It was still 8.
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.
My charge hr usually registered 20 floors when i went out for a run.
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.
Thanks for bringing this to my attention.
And yes i did stop to check the result and wasn t running.

It does not count floors accurately and i have been trying to determine when it does and doesn t count.
