Step counter doesn't start on new day

[coneng96]

• [X] I searched for similar bug reports and found none was relevant.

What happened?

Step counter doesn't start counting after 12AM unless watch is awaken

What should happen instead?

Even if you don't wake the watch it should start counting.

Reproduction steps

• Setup your watch to wake up with single or double tap
• Wait for time to pass 12:00AM
• Without waking up the watch (either by single, double or pressing the button), start walking
• After few steps wake the watch and see if the steps counter is still zero.

More details?

The counter will work if you have the wake up setting to Raise Wrist.

Version

v1.6.0

Companion app

n/a

I experience this issue as well. It works with raise wrist wake as it's likely the action of putting the watch on is triggering this motion. I have that feature disabled and can be 3000 steps into a walk before I check the time. Not a vital issue, but one that would be good to fix.

Experiencing the exact same issue, had to turn off raise to wake so my battery life was more than 2 days and began noticing this.

hum i'm not using any of "single tap/double tap/raise wrist" wake up methods, and my steps are properly counted (e.g. if i wake up at 2 am to drink water, then go back to bed, when i wake up and check time, i can see like 100 or 200 steps.

are you saying that the problem is with single/double tap wake up methods?

[drgnomage]

@ncartron I've found that if the bluetooth connection is up then it works as normal but if it's disconnected then it won't count steps until you wake the screen.

I'm impacted too, on version 1.8.0. The same code that resets the step count should probably initialize it, but I don't have an unsealed version of InfiniTime to experiment with.

I will be working on a fix for this.

i noticed a bit different issue. but probably it's same from the different point of view:

InfiniTime counts the steps after the midnight, but when you unlock the PineTime the first time on day, it sends the counted steps on this day + previous day, then it resets to "0", and send/sync steps again with value "0".

so, for end user it looks like it does not count the steps, but actually there is an issue with a proper (?time for) resetting the counter. that issue also leads to the issue on companion app side (see Gadgetbridge#2783 for details).

@Riksu9000 i know this is quite an old issue, but could someone from InfiniTime team comment on this?

I have the same problem -- InfiniTime version 1.13.0 with a build date of Jun 24, 2023. I guess I'll try turning on the wrist raise to wake because sometimes it's midday before I notice I've got zero steps.
