Avg year step based on total steps taken in year / number of days elapsed in year

Under the Year tab, the average steps is calculating by just averaging the month averages. This doesn't work when you are in the middle of a month. The correct calculation is to take total steps taken in year and divide by number of days elapsed in the year. Please correct this.
