Forerunner 255 has problems counting steps

I went för a walk and used the walk activity. I counted the steps in my head and got 3500 steps. I used another app on my phone that counted the distance with GPS but also steps and it reported 3443 steps. Pretty close, I might have counted wrong while walking.

Anyway, I thought I could see how many steps the watch thought I walked but it's not visible in the summary page in the Garmin Connect app where I see heart rate, time, pulse etc. Why is that? Silly!

I tried to calculate the steps by looking at the steps graph in GC and subtracting the end number from the start and it gives me about 2725 steps which is about 700 steps less than my count and my other app's counting. This a big difference!
