I'm trying to figure out why my step count suddenly jumped to about 1100 steps when i stepped about 400! Could it be how I'm wearing my Blaze? Do i need to reset it? I haven't worn it long enough to have stepped that many times!

A warm welcome to the Forums @MaadaMoore. If your tracker is not being accurate, I recommend Restarting your Blaze. After the restart process you can test your step count.

 

Let me know the outcome. Woman Happy

Thank you for the welcome, Alejandra. I was hasty in my complaint about my device. After talking with a friend and doing some research about step counts without a pedometer, i found that my Blaze was right all along! Who knew we could walk on average, 100-1200 steps in a ten minute span at a brisk pace! Thanks again for yiur response and will keep that in mind should my device happen to malfunction.

You are welcome @MaadaMoore and it's great to hear that your Blaze was working properly all the time. If you need anything else do not hesitate in posting it.

 

Happy stepping! Woman Very Happy
