Garmin watch is simply adding steps to the Apple Health App

My Apple Health app is showing almost double number of steps as it is not syncing the data captured by phone and the watch properly. It is simply adding the data from the watch to the data captured by the phone. Yesterday I walked for around 6 Kms but it is showing 10 Kms.

iPhone 12 mini, iOS 14

Fitness App not recording partial miles from Apple Watch I have an Apple Watch Series 6 running the latest software, watch iOS 9. About a week ago it stopped displaying partial mile information on runs. For example, I run 3.5mi but it will only give me data (pace, heart rate, total time, cadence, etc) for 3 miles. It’s not deleting the additional distance, just not giving any data about it. That’s started a week ago. Anyone know how to resolve? Thanks.

Apple Watch Doubling Up on distance walked I have read all the questions and answers to whether Apple Watch is recording information twice together with iPhone. I noticed yesterday that Health Data was doubling up on distance when I was walking from and to places where I already knew the distance. Today I have walked from my car in a straight line. My Health data said that I had walked .5 miles but Maps shows my Parked car is only .25 miles away. So how can this situation be resolved please?

Activity and health not syncing any idea why the health app on my iPhone recorded my cycle ride as 27.4km and my Apple Watch and ‘activity’ only recorded half of the ride? It was still recording when I got home and ‘ended’ the session but the data on the activity app says I finished at 18km. The watch is a fairly new purchase and all other runs/cycles have been accurate.
