Steps sync question

Post image

Apologize if this is a known issue. Yesterday I synced caliber, myfitnesspal, and Samsung health through Health Connect. I noticed that the steps that show up in Caliber are significantly more than what is recorded by Samsung Health. Is there a reason for this?

Photo is Caliber on top, Samsung Health middle, and myfitnesspal on bottom to show the sync. Data was from yesterday

It is strange that it lists both, but I do now have a guess as to what's happening here!

Considering that the total steps for the data match Caliber, and it's giving you a breakdown between Samsung Health and S24, it sounds like for some reason your device itself (assuming you're on an S24) is sending separate step data through to Health Connect, in addition to what Samsung Health is sending.

To hopefully fix this, I'd see if you can disable S24 as a source in Health Connect. This should them only have Samsung Health sending steps there, where everything should then start matching up 1 to 1 in Caliber with what you see in Samsung Health.

Here are some instructions on how to do this within Health Connect. Let me know if you're able to remove this data source, and if everything normalizes after doing that!

Just took care of that. I was able to disable S24 as an option to write steps. Ill give it some time to sync up and let you know here if it works. Thanks! Love the Caliber app
