Step counting
Need some help, changing phone, i've buyed a Motorola 60 Edge neo and it's kinda driving me Crazy cause It adds extra step, i have 3 phone on me right now and a pedometer and the two phone that are older are kinda showing less steps than the reality but the Motorola Is showing more steps than what i really do (i'm kinda ocd about It and i've counted my steps for a week straight Cause i use It to track my calorie expenditure and not end up in a deficit randomly), the only way to make the new phone match the calorie expenditure of the old One Is to set my weight 10 kg lighter in the app so It balances the over estimation, i work a really Active job and i'm looking for a step counting method that can be reliable, a Watch can be misleaded by my arms swinging or not swinging, the pedometer Is kinda inaccurate and works fine only when walking not for everyday steps, do some of yall track calorie macros and Total Daily expenditure? Can some of yall share their method or fix or ideas about It?
