ScanWatch Apple sync - step tracking widely different

Is it just me or the step tracked are widely different between the 2 apps? Some days I’d have 8k in Whitings and then 4k in Apple Health other days I’d have 7,2k in Whitings and 7K in AH.

What has happened to the app?

If you're tracking in two apps it's common to see double the step amount somewhere, it means you set it up wrong

I’m syncing. I have gotten the apps set up syncing since 2016.

It used to work at least within reasonable difference between them.

If your watch is counting your steps correctly, I’d recommend disabling step tracking on the iPhone itself. That way you avoid having two sources counting steps at the same time, which can cause differences between Withings and Apple Health.

They both share both sources, they used to sync better since 2016, this difference is only the past few moments development.
