Your device uses changes in barometric pressure combined with the steps you take to calculate floors climbed.
It was still 8.
If they do not count floors they should not show floors miles cals minutes in the dashboard.
They were around 10 feet.
Just bought a charge 3 just a few days ago.
And yes i did stop to check the result and wasn t running.
What is important to keep in mind is that it is not the elevation itself that causes the floors to be counted it is the changes in air pressure.
Climbed up 2 floors and the count showed 8 when it should have shown 9.
The same can happen when you turn the shower on.
Just to knock off that reason as well.
I feel like ever since my charge 2 was updated that it counts floors climbed a lot.
Does your fitbit app show more floors climbed than it should.
Fitbit devices that count floors have an altimeter sensor that detects when you go up in elevation.

There s no catch in the stairs.
