Steps

Hi all, 

I'm in a step comp with 2 other friends but my fit bit is behaving stangley when I look at the steps.

Yesterday I wax 75,000 and in the middle of the comp but today I have dropped to 66,126.

This has been going on for a while , have I dfomne something wrong?

I assume we are talking about the step total as shown on the friends tile. If so, this tile shows the steps taken so far today plus the steps for the previous 6 days. Once you have logged at least a week of data the total will always go down at midnight as it deletes the oldest day's data to make room for the new day.

Would this account for what you are seeing?

Hi Steve

Normally my weekly tally keeps growing then returns to 0 on a Monday.

What happens for example  is I'll be on 75,000 steps on Wednesday then on Thursday it'll have dropped to 60,000.

I can understand the drop from 75,000 to 60,000. That's perfectly normal for the reasons I gave earlier. 

However, the friends tile should never reset to zero unless you don't take a single step over the entire 7 days. Can you confirm that it's the total steps on the friends tile that goes to zero on a Monday and not a weekly total elsewhere on your dashboard.
