I am hoping someone has a fix to this problem I am having. For a couple days a week I ride my motorcycle to work. It seems the watch likes to add 2000 steps each time I ride. So on average it inflates my daily steps by 4000. The watch does not auto detect any type of workout which is odd, it has no issue doing that when I am walking around at work. I want to mention the watch records even when I put it in my pocket. I am hoping there is some fix to this other than turning it off everytime. Thanks in advance!
