Activity Section
Click on the progress bars on the right to adjust your daily goals (available for Today date only).
Your activity section shows your number of steps taken, distance traveled, calories burned, active
score, daily badges earned, and whether you have any recordings. Fitbit Ultra users will also see
how many floors they've climbed here.
The floors climbed data does not show your elevation. Rather, it shows the elevation you've climbed
throughout the day in terms of floors without adding in your starting elevation or negating downhill
movement.
Each floor represents about 10 feet of elevation gain. You can expect office buildings to have larger
heights per floor and some residential buildings to have smaller heights.
You do not have to be walking up stairs for your Fitbit Ultra to calculate floors climbed. It will also
count walking up hills.
Regardless of the height of floors in the building you're in, you will receive credit for one floor for
every 10 feet you climb.
Floors climbed is based on an altimeter to gauge your elevation, rather than GPS. It will generally be
more accurate than a GPS device.
