Steps now broken with 13.37

First day after the 13.37 update Step count is wildly inaccurate.

I after a 1km walk, breakfast and doing nothing I already had my 7000 step goal alert going off.

Other reports about step count issues over at the Fenix forum.

I have a Tactix 8 updated to 13.73 the equivalent update for it. What seems to happen here at least as far as I can tell is step and floor count no reset at midnight and adds today's steps etc to previous days total. Sounds like you have same there.

Worst thing is that this is a really expensive watch and Garmin wont even tell us 13.37 changelog.

Every other watch I got have always told us what the update does.

I have another bug since 13.37. My watch have been recording my sleep bad. It's several hours wrong

It was listed in Garmin Express: https://forums.garmin.com/outdoor-recreation/outdoor-recreation/f/fenix-8-series/410249/fenix-8-13-37-firmware/1927966#1927966

"Fixed AliPay Transit Code Failure".

So, nothing that affects anything really.

My steps and sleep tracking work just as before the update so the issues you are experiencing are probably because of something else than the update.

Same. Mine racked up like 100 steps just from tying my shoes and diving to the gym. Insanity

That is nothing odd. Driving can log steps depending on your car, road and where you drive (lots of turning and manovering). I would say that 100 steps for that is very low.
