Should Bangle.getStepCount() reset to zero at the start of each day?

I would recommend this as the best way to get the daily step count into a clock.

I would not recommend getting it from the health app as it might take a day before you get a count for a whole day.
```
function getSteps() {
  if (WIDGETS.wpedom !== undefined) {
    return WIDGETS.wpedom.getSteps();
  }
  return '????';
}
```
Yes, the daily step count should reset each day at midnight, both in the health app and the pedometer widget.

Thanks for your help and the code example, I've now got the basics working.
I've added some coloured bars but this is what I've written.

function getSteps() {
if (WIDGETS.wpedom !== undefined) {
```
return WIDGETS.wpedom.getSteps();
```
}
return '????';
}

g.clear(); // Clear the screen once, at startup

// Load widgets
Bangle.loadWidgets();

//Set background
// top box
g.setColor("#00f"); //blue
g.fillRect(0, 0, 176, 58);
// middle box
g.setColor("#ff0"); //yellow
g.fillRect(0, 60, 176, 118);
// bottom box
g.setColor("#f00"); //red
g.fillRect(0, 120, 176, 176);

//Draw text string
g.setFontAlign(0, 0).setFont("Vector", 55);
g.drawString(getSteps(), 90, 95);
