Steps not resetting everyday

Kris

We have had the watch for 3 weeks now. Some days the steps reset to 0 and some days it doesn't. Connected support and after troubleshooting they sent us a new one. The new one is doing the same thing. Apps and firmware up to date.

My son loves the step tracking and looks at it all the time - trying to get to a certain number a day - and it is frustrating that it is not working when other than tracking location this was the reason we went with Gabb. At this point, I am ready to return it and get a refund and somehow get out of my service plan contract to go with another brand.

Other issues include, not being notified for at least 25 minutes after leaving safe zone, "running out of time" on mimic game but support can't tell me what that time limit might be, and overheating.

is there a way for the daily steps to restart? I see this listed on the website but I’ve never seen this screen on my child’s watch. It is similar looking to an Apple Watch daily tracker but I’m not seeing it. My child wants to track daily steps, not overall steps. Also, is there a way for me to see that on the app profile?

Hi @Lns1,

The daily step counter is set up to reset the steps each morning. If you find you are having trouble with this, please follow the troubleshooting steps above.

The step counter page on the Gabb Watch 3 has updated since that photo on our website. On the Gabb Watch, you will see a page that says "TODAYS STATS" the millage and step amount. You can view the steps of your device in your MyGabb app. You can find more information on what is available in your MyGabb app here!

We recently got the Gabb Watch3 for our active son. The Move app appears to be completely unusable (or we don't know how to use it..).

The steps sometimes work. When selecting different kinds of activities (Basketball, biking, etc.) you can start them but not pause or stop them.

Finally, even after a complete reset and update, it shows 16 hours of activities that my son didn't do because it keeps counting due to not being able to pause or complete workout.

He's angry and in tears because he can't accurately track what he's doing.

Can anyone help?
