iWatch 3 and health app I have iWatch 3, following the 12.4 update 1) Health app would stop counting steps time to time, out of sync as much as 5000 steps. No longer mirrors watch, app would not update numbers. 2) following the IOS 13 update the Health app reduced weekly and monthly step history by more than 10% and yearly history more than 15%. Is a fix coming? Tried several suggested fixes that were posted; reboot, check motion/walking, etc. Prior to updates watch and iPhone 8 matched perfectly and weekly, monthly and yearly counts updated in sync. Anyone having same problem? Is a fix in the works? Will fix recover and correct activity history? Is there another app out there that would mirror iWatch?

Because that's where they end up,not on the watch,any steps you take get sent to the health and fitness apps not the other way around.
