No it doesn't. But it's great although I wanted in black and they sended to me in blue

No, it does not count steps. you need a pedometer for that. Amazon lists several.

.. no it doesn't... just heart rate... and details like maximum... average... length for that work out
353665
No, this is a very basic heart rate monitor only, I think the ft7 or the 300 model will do steps
353666
Oh no. Not that fancy. Just gives you the heart rate, exercise time, average heart rate. Or maybe thats all I have figured out cause thats all I wanted. Who knows.

It does count your steps for a continuous 24 hours. I set mine so it resets all at midnight

I would say yes. It has 3 buttons, mode (miles or steps), set (which I still don't understand that button), and reset. The problem was not its ease of use. The problem is it doesn't count. You literally have to stomp your steps and if it's anywhere but on your foot/ shoe it doesn't do anything.

I do not think it counts steps. It's basically a GPS on your wrist and tracks miles and speed very well. My wife loves it.

I just tried it on my elliptical. To my surprise, it worked! I counted 27 revolutions with my right foot, and the Fitbit counted 54 steps, which I guess would be correct.

No it does not but make sure that you increase the sensitivity to it's highest I have found it works better that way and I does not count steps while you are per say typing on the computer or taking a shower.

Hi Pam! No, this particular model doesn't tell you the time that you walked/ran. It gives you an all day total of steps, and how many miles those steps equals.

it tells your steps,miles @ calories but you don't put a stride in it does it automatically

I either wear mine on a lanyard around my next and it counts steps very well. Riding a stationary bike, not as accurate. Sometimes I carry it in my pocket and it will count the steps no problem.

It isn't sophisticated. All it's measuring is your arm movement (or wherever you're wearing your Fitbit). You could walk or jog holding your arm still and it will think you aren't moving. Or you can shake your arm up and down and it will count it as steps. I did try and count my steps and check it for accuracy. For example, I was close to 6000 steps, then counted another 400. It came out pretty close to 6400, give or take 10 or 12. The trouble is, I'm not that great at walking and counting at the same time! (That's why I need something that does the counting.)

I sent mine back as I could not reset it. Also because it would not accurately count my steps. Sorry.

Sorry no, but you could keep a record of the steps and then calculate each walk.

As soon as I get up in the morning it starts counting my steps. I did 14,200 today but try to make the 10,000 every day with walking, followed by aerobics and whatever I do the rest of the day.

This unit does not count steps in the car or on a bike. I just keep it in my pocket and only when I walk, jog or run does it register steps. Works very well.Bruce

No, I don't think it will count steps. The steps are counted by the stride length you put in. I don't know how you would convert that into bicycle riding.

Yes. You get a day's total of steps. It also records what it terms "ex time" which I guess they mean is the amount of time you exercise.
1563498
Yes it does. Any steps you take at all it counts. Also, it holds up to seven days worth of counts.
