  • @Gordon - Good news with firmware 2v09.9, and step counting.

    I did a test walk this morning 1.53 miles
    AmizFit Bip: 3057 steps
    Bangle: 3068 steps

    I did a similar walk yesterday and got very close results but did not write them down before midnight. I appreciate that 1 test result does not make strong evidence - on the other hand I have been routinely testing the step counter widgets (with different settings) across multiple walks since I purchased my Bangle in December 2020. I have never managed to get within 400 steps of the AmizFit bip - so to be within 11 steps is a brilliant result.

    I have been using the ActivePedom Widget with the following settings:

    Step Threshold 5: Active Res (ms) 5000. In other words only register steps after 5 steps in 5 seconds. All other settings in ActivePedom left as default.

    I think if you produced a firmware with this additional threshold built in you would have a pretty accurate step counter. I'd be happy to do some real world testing.
