See my 'Steps' by week [Mon-Sun], not last 7 days accrued?

I have a Garmin Venu 2, and while I am quite happy with the watch, there is one thing that really bugs me.

When I look at my Garmin Connect app on my phone [Android], it can show me all the steps I have done over the last 7 days.

However, it doesn't remain static, as in, showing me the steps that I have done from Monday to Friday.

For example, today is Thursday and when I click on my steps, then click on '7 days' it shows me the amount of steps that I have done between last Thursday and today (Thursday).

I know that this makes sense as it IS actually showing me my last week of steps.

But, I just want to see the (amount of) steps displayed that I have done since Monday this week, not since last Thursday.

I want my stats to show me the steps that I have done between Monday - Sunday (like my old non-Garmin fitness watch did) if that makes sense.

Is there a way that I can make the display on my app do this?

Any help/info appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Wait until Sunday evening and you will see the week ;-)

No, there is no way to view that. Garmin is using sliding windows. You can easily do the math if you want to get the count for just a few days. View 1 day page and swipe right.

Yes, there is - go to Reports » Health » Steps, select the 1 Year tab, and by default you get a chart with weekly sums. Use the mouse to see the numbers in the mouse-over tooltip

It is still the 7 day rolling values.

The date says Oct 28 which is the start date for the period I'm hovering and that is a Saturday. In the table below you see that the period is Oct 28 to Nov 3 (Saturday to Friday).

Thanks, guys - all comments are appreciated.
e7andy is right though, the stats still show weekly rolling values.

I basically wanted to know if there was any method of seeing Monday - Sunday steps recorded on my phone interface like the interface was in my previous Fitbit watch.

I'm guessing that the answer to that is a resounding 'no'.
I just preferred the 'steps' interface on there to the one on Garmin. It wasn't a rolling one, just a standard Mon-Sun one.

This is kind of a pain, but the workaround for the website, not the app, is to temporarily change the date on your device (phone, tablet, computer) to match the end of the desired rolling window.

e.g. Today is Friday, November 10, but if you change the date to Sunday, November 5 and open the Garmin Connect website, you should see the data you're looking for.

No idea if this would work on the Connect app tho.

EDIT: I tried it on my phone and Connect app, and the workaround just caused the app to sign me out of my account and prevented me from logging back in :/

It still works with a PC and the website, although I realize it's not ideal. Might also work on a phone and the website, although the website sucks on a phone tbh.

Progress Summary has static dates for weeks, but no steps.
