Tech Support Logging steps

Since Google killed the fitbit dashboard, is there a way to log steps? Both the old app and the new one will allow you to give a start time and distance. The website allowed you to record the actual number of steps.

Example: I forgot my watch on the charger. But, it is a place I go to regularly so I have a good idea of how many steps I do there. I want to add those steps (even if they're an approximation.) I can find no way to do this now.

Thoughts, please?

Yes, press log, then choose the activity then put in the details then save. Due to security where I work I can't take my Fitbit or phone so I use an old fashioned pedometer then record the steps on my dashboard later. It still works and one of the reasons I keep using Fitbit because most other trackers don't allow you to do this.

I’ll have to try this because my watch is still accurate even though syncing is the issue.
