    Is there a way to stop it recording steps for a little while? I drive to the bus station and catch a bus for 20mins to uni, dont want it to count these

    This is the most frequently requested feature in the forums. From my experience... the best way to manage this is to press and hold the button on the tracker to start the stopwatch as you start your drive. Press and hold the button again when your commute is over. When you log into the website you'll see an activity record with that timeframe. If it is early in the morning or late at night it may register as a sleep record. Either way, click on the record to edit it and enter 'driving'. It will match the record up with an activity in the FitBit database that removes the steps from the step count from your total as seen through the website but unfortunately doesn't change the amount that reads on your Tracker. It will also adjust the calorie burn down if necessary. When the activity crosses over to MFP it will be more accurate.
