Which fitbit tracks floors.
Because the device looks for continuous motion pausing when you go up a flight of stairs can cause the device to not count the floor.
Your fitbit charge 2 calculates floors using an altimeter which is a sensor that calculates altitude based on atmospheric pressure.
Thanks for taking the time to report the situation you are experiencing with your charge 3 tracking floors.
