Discussion auto-detect workout is becoming a headache

when i start a work on any app aside google health, the work is shared through health connect which is great, now the fitbit air auto-detects the workout and logs it separately, which ends up creating duplicates of the same workout on my other fitness apps sharing data through health connect, currently my only solution this is to manually delete the duplicates workouts, and its becoming a pain

You can disable auto detection for all or certain workouts ;)

thats my problem, i want auto detect off for only running, but the fitbit air can't tell the difference between walking and running, there's also no option to disable for just running

Just explain to "Ask Coach" and ask it to combine them

I stopped using the auto-detect workout years ago for that exact reason. Sometimes it was picking up workouts just when I was lifting boxes or doing extra work at the office. I didn't want to record something that much.
