interesting finding! I would have thought the data base would be the same and the watch’s OS do the counting.

currently I have 960 steps in FIT and 956 in Suunto -> very small difference and Suunto more conservative

also I find that the FIT steps are not updated in real time. Maybe different time of sampling the counter

@Massimiliano-Mirannalti found it! Thanx.

I think, if I remember correctly the steps etc should eventually align. It’s just different refresh / sync periods.

I might be wrong though

[pavel.samokha]

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos Yep, may be I’m wrong and it will align now

[Dominik Moser]

hm, right now I´ve got 3174 in fit and 4352 in suunto. That`s quite a huge difference.

I find the Sport mode customization super useful for the S7, as you can design displays with 2 big numbers only that are much more readable on sunny days with the S7 screen (and a low brightness to save some battery) than the standard displays. Good job! Now I only need to be able to load routes and my S7 will be perfect for me!

Hi friend. Welcome to the Community

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos “Power saver tilt” is broken after the update. “Tilt-to-wake” works fine, though.

[Brad_Olwin]

@Metalmi power save tilt is fine for me. Are you using a Suunto watchface?

[Dimitrios Kanellopoulos]

Regarding calories and steps.

Google fit aggregates steps and calories from the phone as well if you use it.

So leaving the watch at home , walking with the phone, and syncing will give you steps from phone etc.

@Brad_Olwin I am. It started working fine few hours later - maybe after I was changing watch face (turning power saver tilt off and back on didn’t help).

[suzzlo]

Due Suunto 7 is a WearOS watch, I see that Suunto is extending the integration with Google Fit.

It would be great if we see improvements in that direction for the rest of watches.

@Dominik-Moser I have been checking my steps for the last few days. Google Fit and Suunto while not exact are very, very close to each other. This includes my running so they are off by at most 1-2%.

[Dominik Moser]

@Brad_Olwin Right now Fit counts 4840 steps, Suunto 5250. A bit more than 1-2%

[aeroild]

@Dominik-Moser My watch now after counting steps for approx. 22 hours since midnight: Suunto 5394 and Fit 5448. That would make a difference of 54 and that is 1%

[JANTIKAINEN]

The new tile with steps, calories and recovery is great!

[chriss860]

Could you show us the new tile? I was waiting for the fitness integration with Suunto‘s own software, so now I‘m courious about news.

[Brad_Olwin]

@chriss860

And my steps are very close…

I think what you are seeing is a temporary delay - mine normally match, especially if you go into the Suunto Today tile first, and then pull up google fit. Steps always match- calories are slightly out, but not by much.
