My apple watch (6 series) counts half of the steps.
Any ideas?
Apple Watch Series 6, watchOS 7
Thanks, but I do not see how this is related to my question.
I will elaborate.
What happens is that the number of steps that are counted are way off from the real number of steps, in my case by about 50%.

Thank you for the explanation. I will check that.
So, for example when I walk in the house, shall I conclude that the Apple watch is not counting steps? It would be a quite useless device then.
To earn exercise or workout credit you must move at the speed of a brisk walk.
To earn 1 minute of exercise credit(green ring);
Travel a full minute at a brisk walking pace 3.3 mph or 18 minutes per mile approx.or 5.3kph or 11.3 minutes per kilometer.
Raise your heart rate to approx 75% of your maximum.
When you're at around or above this heart rate and speed for the entire minute you'll receive 1 exercise minute credit.

The watch only records steps and distance according to the criteria above so for 50% of the time you are not meeting that criteria.
