Won't record an activity

I have a Charge HR. I push the button when I am doing yoga, push it at the end, shows me all the stats if I scroll through, gives me the duration when I am done, but shuts off before any other stats show but I NEVER have a recording in my activity log. I have always had to manually enter my yoga. Am I doing something wrong???

    Yoga isn't a step-based activity, so your FitBit is not going to accurately measure calories burned. I don't know why your activity record doesn't appear, but I think I tried doing a record once when I wasn't exercising - and so, didn't have an elevated heart rate - and it never appeared.

    Bottom line - you still need to manually enter your yoga.

    And if you are curious why you need to manually log the workout, you can manually make an activity record first, to see all the stats that Fitbit did come up with.
    You'll see how few steps, low HR, and low calorie burn you were given.
    Then you can manually log the workout and get a better estimate.

    HRM isn't valid formula for calorie burn for below aerobic exercise zone - which yoga is.
