Question about Steps

Former Member over 1 year ago

Hello.

See below screenshot.

What is the meaning of the 7290 ? Is it like a daily objective ? How is it derived ? Is it calculated automatically by the watch depending on my age, gender etc or... do I need to change it manually somewhere in the Settings ? I haven't found.

Thank you.

Jean.

It is your daily step goal.

s it calculated automatically by the watch depending on my age, gender etc or

It is calculated automatically by the watch, but not depending on any of your personal parameters, but rather based on you previous day's performance. If you met your step goal, then the goal for the next day will be slightly higher. If you failed to meet your step goal, then the goal for the next day will be slightly lower.

do I need to change it manually somewhere in the Settings ?

There's a setting in garmin connect, where you can choose whether the daily step goal is automatic, or set your own fixed custom value.
