Bike Tile and Steps

[anon(9312357)]

Hi - forgive me if this was posted somewhere but I didn't see it! I just picked up the band a few days ago and so far everything is great! I have a question on the bike tile and what it doesn't do after you track a ride. Steps don't increase and now I am guessing that is how it is intended to work but would have thought it would have given me something. Even my Fitbit used to and what is also interesting is that I also tracked it in Health and Fitness and that gave me steps for my ride. Does anyone think it should? Just curious as someone who likes to keep track of their goal and if it isn't counted then I feel like I have not met it.

Thanks!
Mike

You aren't walking or running so I don't see why steps should increase with biking. Biking adds to your calories burned, which seems like a better indicator of exercise.

Yes very true but what I find interesting is that the MSN Health and Fitness app gives me steps when I track my bike ride from the app.
