Google says Pixel Watch step counts, stats are now fixed
Key Points:
- Google has fixed an issue in the Fitbit app that caused Pixel Watch users to see overcounted steps and calories, as confirmed on the Fitbit status dashboard.
- The fix applies only to new activity data, meaning previously recorded incorrect step and calorie counts will remain unchanged in users' logs.
- Users experiencing ongoing issues are advised to reboot their Pixel Watch to apply the update and correct new activity tracking.
- While the fix prevents future inaccuracies, the persistence of incorrect historical data could impact users' ability to analyze trends in their fitness metrics.
