Kristine - That is frustrating!

I pretty much only get “step credit” if my left arm is swinging. I tried a few old-fashioned pedometers, which detect jarring/bouncing motions (works on hip or foot), but they are all programmed to ignore the first 10 step! Working in my tiny kitchen, cleaning house, doing construction work, or doing yard cleanup involves lots of short distances, none of which count. 🤬 I have read that oura rings report a “step equivalent” that might do a better job of reflecting all movement, but they are expensive and the reviews are mixed.

Yeah, same. There's a part of my job during which I anchor my left arm against a piece of equipment so I don't make a mess, and I always get the "move!" buzz-message. I'm like, "I AM. Bugger off!"
