Pedometer - Anyone else's not working? 0 Steps

I've had my Moto360 for seven days... pedometer worked great the first two days, then Zero. The last five days show 0 Steps, but the first two show over 2,000... I've restarted the watch and phone. Heart monitor works fine. Bad sensor maybe?
Please help!

Did you turn off save fitness data?

That was it. Sorry for being a dumbass... I didn't knowingly turn off save fitness data, but sure enough it was turned off. Anyway, thank you the reply!

How do you turn it back on

moto 360 wont register any steps.
I have the same issue. for the first week, the pedometer on the moto360 worked, and showed my complete step history on the watch. Then something happened, either when I installed google fit on the phone (which I have now removed), or I opened s-health on the phone (samsung galaxy note 4) which was a huge mistake. Prior to this, I never used any fitness apps on the phone, and it did not register my steps.
Now only the phone registers steps (badly, about 2x the actual steps), and the watch registers no steps, but shows steps from the phone. E.g. If I take 100 steps wearing only the watch, 0 steps are registered and displayed. If I take 100 steps holding the phone (not wearing the watch), it registers around 200 steps. If I take 100 steps both holding the phone and wearing the watch, it registers 200 steps.
There does not seem to be any way to disable step registering on the phone, and enable it on the watch - I guess this is an incompatibility between moto fit, samsung s-health, and google fit - all 3 apps are not compatible, and there is no way to uninstall or disable any of them. In this regard the iwatch has a clear advantage (for rich people).
The other issue is that I don't want location services on on my phone - I value my battery. If I disable all location services, then no steps are registered, neither if I walk with the phone nor watch.

Install moto body. Without it , fit won't register steps. I almost sent my watch in for repair thinking it was broken. Fixed my issue.

[Q] Moto 360 & Google Fit - Activities History

I can't work out what the problem is here and it's frustrating the hell outta me!
Basically, it seemed to be working fine. On the 360 and within the Google Fit app my daily history could be seen.
Unrelated, I reset my HTC One M8 to factory. I did the same with the 360 and started over again.
Since then, Google Fit just doesn't seem interested in keeping my history. It has no problems counting steps and taking heart rate on the day. If on Monday I did 5,000 steps, come Tuesday when I look at my history on the 360 and on the phone, it will tell me how many steps I've done Tuesday (today) but in the history part it displays nothing. The graph on the watch will display only today. Yesterdays, day before, day before that etc. - nothing. On the watch it will have a 0 next to the day. In the app it will simply say 'your activities will appear here' - but they never do.
I've tried clearing Fit data from within the app and from the Android apps menu, resyncing apps, resetting watch, repairing watch with phone, uninstalling everything to do with Fit and the 360. To no avail. Irritatingly my father in law has a 360 but paired with a Note II and he has no problem recording and viewing his history.
I'm not sure where the fault lies, whether it's with the 360, Google Fit or my HTC One M8.
Anyone else experiencing the same?

[Q] Recovering Watch Faces after Watch reset

I have had to reset my Moto 360 and repair it with my Samsung Galaxy S6. When I go into the Android Wear app, I am noticing several of my watch faces are missing. Some of them do eventually reappear. I know the watch faces are still on my phone because when I try to reinstall them, they show already installed. Is there a way to get the Android Wear application to refresh the watch faces that are on the phone? This seems like a stupid bug since it seems the watch needs to be reset every so often and I always seem to have this problem. I can't believe I have to remove and reinstall all the faces especially since I do not remember all the ones I bought without going through a long history of my app purchases.

I've had this happen a few times and this time I was digging around in the settings of the Android Wear app.
Tap the cog in the top right corner>Select your watch name>Tap Resync Apps.
See if that works for you. My watch synced everything except the faces and that fixed it for me.

Not working for me with Quick pic. Nexus 6.
Same message as photos stopped.

Give it time after a reset or new/replacement watch. If it's on your phone it will eventually appear on the watch. Last time I reset it, it took approximately 2 hours to get back to normal.

Google Fit

Howdy everyone,
I just purchased a Huawei watch that I'd like to use to replace my FitBit plus lots more that you can do with Android Wear.
Odd thing that I'm dealing with is that the watch and phone are reporting wildly different steps - it appears that Google Fit on the watch and Google Fit on the phone are not communicating.
I have looked at the Google Fit Connects Apps -> Google Fit apps & devices, but do not see the Huawei watch listed - if the watch is connected properly, should it show up here? If it is supposed to be listed to connected Google Fit properly, how do I make that happen?
Thanks.

Which app is set to count your steps in the actions menu?
Android Wear App -> scroll to the bottom -> More Actions -> Show me my steps -> Fit

Good question. Ive been thinking about this. Given that Fit is on the device and the Huawei fit app is also there, which app gives the better stats, as they show different step counts. Also, if you are using the Google Fit app, is that only counting steps when you have your phone on you, or does it count steps when you leave your phone on your desk?
Edit:
Just tested it and it appears as though Google Fit uses the watch to calculate step data as I left my phone on my desk and went for a walk, and the step count increased.

I have the same problem i was expecting the watch would be connected to the phone app but it doesn't look like it. So what happens when i start one of the predefined activities on the phone such as stationary bike the watch is not doing anything. I can only start tracking from the native wear app which has very few predefined tracking types. Is there any solution to this?

Not sure if this is a common bug or not - if I do NOT have Fit installed on my phone, fit tracks steps on my watch fine, but if I install Fit on my phone, it just reads zeros for current activity on the phone and the watch.. but if I uninstall Fit on the phone, it seems to work fine on the watch. Trying to figure out if it's a phone or watch issue. I did give it permissions to read sensors on both phone and watch on install

Same issues
Google fit did not record steps on my gen 1 Moto 360. I just bought the Huawei Watch as a replacement and fit still does not record steps. The Huawei app works great. I am at a loss on how to get this working. I can't believe it does not work at all. There has to be a setting issue but I have yet to find it.
Update: I have Fit working pretty well now. (have to go back and change my rating of fit from 1 star to maybe 3 ) Here is what I did:
- Deactivated Fit on my phone and deleted all the data. Then I reactivated it.
- I went into the Wuawei fitness app and connected it to Fit. There was not an option to do it the other way. But after I connected it it shows up in connected apps in Fit.
- Everything pretty much started working after this. One thing to note: Everything does not sync automatically. I have to open my Wuawei fitness app on my phone and update it before those steps seem to show up in Fit. So, it is not perfect but it is close.

Problems with counting steps

I'm experiencing problems with counting steps on my SWR50:
- When I walk very fast it seems to miss steps. The other day I walked 10 km and it had recorded about 6000 steps while it should be well over 10k steps.
- Today I was walking over 4 km and near the end of the walk the steps shown was over 5000. But when I was back I noticed that the stepcount was on little over 2900. Sometime later it was on around 4300 although I had been sitting. This is on Classic Watchface. But if I look at the Bubbles watchface it shows 6.8k steps.
- When I look in Google Fit is says also around 4300 steps while Lifelog says 6200 steps.
Has anyone noticed the same? Is there a way to get a uniform reading?
And especially how can I make it record my steps properly when I walk fast?

I had similar issues but I eventually gave up. My primary use was for fitness tracking and it was just too inconsistent. I've put my smartwatch up for sale and bought a Fitbit blaze. The notifications are read only but I never really used voice commands and always had issues with gps so it felt like an easy trade off.

My SWR50 stopped recording steps at all in recent few weeks. I think it had to do with some Google S/W update that was pushed without any input on my part. (Gplay services framework or Google App or something)
I eventually got tired of it registering nothing, so I un-paired it and re-paired it with my phone. Shortly after that I noticed it had recorded a few steps. Yay!
The next day, it was back to nothing again.
It always shows up in Android Wear and it still alerts on phone notifications, just doesn't record steps any more.
