Gadgetbridge - Fetching Activity Data

Does Gadgetbridge only display activity data while the bangle is connected to the app via Bluetooth?

Or is there some method I'm missing for importing/displaying all of the activity data on the bangle within Gadgetbridge?

For example, it seems as though recorded steps are only displayed within Gadgetbridge if the steps are made while an active Bluetooth connection is established between the bangle and Gadgetbridge. Is this correct or am I missing something?

Hope this makes sense,

Thanks :)

Yes, that is the case - it's come up a lot recently for some reason, for example: https://forum.espruino.com/conversations/385539/#comment16942663

There is an issue open to try and get it improved. Right now the health app does record all the information on the watch, it's just that it isn't synced with Gadgetbridge when you connect

Okay, thanks for letting me know. I wasn't sure if Gadgetbridge wasn't functioning properly or if it was just how it was supposed to work. Glad to hear there are improvements in the works :)

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:

That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

```

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.

If you upload more than 5 files we will display all attachments as thumbnails.
