Step counter strange after 19.18 update?

Updated 2 days ago. Started a walk today with 22ish thousand steps. When I got home (after 3-4km) step counter was at 21ish thousand. When I look in the watch step widget, there are strange spikes through the day. I assume this chart should only be able to go up during the day, not down (like a car odometer should never go backwards). The connect app shows a much more appropriate graph that more likely represents reality. Anyone else?

Vetboy, thank you for sharing. That's very strange! Can you please power your watch off/on and let us know if it happens again?

I will keep an eye out for other comments/reports as well.

I had this issues once a while ago. I contacted support on the matter. It seems that is the watch has some excessive movement that leads to steps , it may notice this and then "backtrack" so to say.. I cannot recall exactly when this was (but pre 19.xx) that I reported this, I noticed it just the once , but I dont look at the graph always,
