What's New
More reliable steps: what changes in 190
The day's total and the hourly chart now only tell you what was actually measured: no inflated sums across devices, no chart making up missing data just to match the big number.
TL;DR
- The day's steps total is chosen from the most consistent source with the most hours measured that day, not simply whichever has the biggest number.
- The hourly chart only appears when the sum of the hours matches the official total exactly: otherwise it stays hidden, and the day's total is still shown.
- The dashed line on the chart is your own average from previous days (up to 7, real data only), not a steps goal.
If you wear more than one device — a watch during the day and a ring at night, for example — understanding how many steps you actually took shouldn't depend on which source happens to report the biggest number. With this update, FitMesh chooses the day's total by looking at which source is most internally consistent and actually measured the most hours, not whichever added up or inflated the most. The same principle now also shapes the hourly chart and the dashed line on the steps chart.
The three things you'll notice
- The day's total is chosen from the source that's most internally consistent and has the best hourly coverage for that specific day, not the highest number among the available sources.
- The hourly chart only appears when the sum of every hour matches the day's official total exactly: if it doesn't match, the chart stays hidden with no rescaling to force the numbers to line up, and the day's total is still shown.
- The dashed line is your own average calculated over previous days with real data (up to 7, a minimum of 3 to be drawn at all), not a steps goal set by FitMesh.

The Steps Total Doesn't Match the Hourly Chart? Here's Why
A daily total and an hour-by-hour chart that sometimes isn't there: it's not a bug, it's how FitMesh handles multiple sources of the same data without making up numbers.

What Is FitMesh and How Does It Work?
FitMesh Sync reads your wearables' data, including the Colmi ring over Bluetooth, merges it without duplicates and shows it in one web dashboard. Here's how it works, screen by screen.
