2. Tips to Improve Footstep Tracking
Use your non-dominant arm for your fitness tracker. It moves less than your dominant arm and is statistically less likely to cause damage to your tracker.
Wear your tracker against your skin, not over clothing.
Keep your tracker charged. Low battery power could cause inaccurate readings.
Fitness trackers are not as accurate as chest straps. Unless the readings you're receiving are very inaccurate there should be nothing to worry about.
3. Reset your Garmin Fitness Tracker to fix step tracking
If the previous tips did not fix your step tracking, you will need to restart or reset your Garmin.
