@Nenac Welcome! It's nice to have you on board!
Let me help you with your step count increasing while watching TV. Your device will detect the movement on your arm and translate that movement into steps. This is why @Rich_Laue asked if you were moving your arms (maybe when changing channels or grabbing something your were eating). There are situations in which your arm may move but you won't be actually walking. For example, this may happen when you are playing the drums, burping a baby or clapping. It can also happen while driving. You can negate these steps by logging a driving activity. You can try wearing your device on your non dominant hand but select that hand as dominant on the device’s settings to make it less sensitive to movement.
Let me know how it goes.
