I was starting to worry that it had something to do with my heart rate or something.

I recently changed my Fitbit from Versa 4 to Versa 5 and it’s not tracking my floors at all.

Biggest POS that I have ever seen. This is Fitbit’s way of forcing you into a hardware update. Do it! Update your hardware to an Apple watch.

My lifestyle hasn’t changed but my average daily floors suddenly jumped from about 30 to over 200. Yesterday I was awarded a Canyon badge for doing virtually nothing!

Charge 5 doesn’t have the hardware to track floors. That’s the reason I still have my charge 4

Same problem here. I have had my Charge 5 for about six weeks and it has yet to register one single flight of stairs. I live in a two-story house—with my bedroom upstairs—and work in a two-story school, where I make several trips up and down the stairs daily.

Frustrating.

How about fixing the actual issue instead of a band aide that isn’t working for me. This started a few months ago, about the time of an update. Never happened with my Charge or Charge 2. The Sense, overall, is garbage.

Correction, my Sense is doing it. Haven’t worn my Versa in over a year.

My Versa started registering way too many floors at about that same time.
