Check your stride!

I have been using my Charge HR for about two weeks now and it finally dawned on me to compare distance measurements between the Charge and a GPS app (map my walk). Well the app said I walked 1.77 miles and the fitbit said I walked 1.25 miles. Big difference! I measured my stride and entered it manually and it is now much more accurate. Just thought I would pass this on. The default stride can be inaccurate.

    How do you adjust stride?

    Yes I'd like to know how to adjust stride length - I looked at settings, but couldnt see where you do it.

    Found it for the flex - settings, personal info then in the area where it asks whether you are pregnant/nursing, there is an option to set stride and running stride length.
