9533 steps yesterday.  Well, I certainly felt better than the day before.  I don't know what was going on Sunday but happy to be OK on Monday.  I have been out walking a bit this morning and so far so good.

8,393 steps yesterday.

I got my new phone activated today. For some reason my Stepz app froze up, so I won't have a count for today. I downloaded a different step app called StepsApp. After a while for some weird reason Stepz and the new app synced their counts. I may try deleting Stepz and reinstalling it. I don't know what to trust at this point. Everything else seems to be working just fine...

The iOS has a built in App called Health. The phone has a sensor which measures steps whether you have an App or not. All of these apps get their info from this sensor.

Yes, I know about that app, but what is weird is it has a totally different number  (higher) than the two apps... ???

ETA:I just checked again and the Health app number of steps is 2x what the Stepz app says or the two step apps combined...that is really weird...

6156 steps yesterday.  I kind of slacked off and today I am not even going to try to go very far.  Lots of visiting and eating.
Barbara, glad you got your new phone set up.  Sometimes deleting and reinstalling an app will fix a problem.  Hope that works.  It's weird because on my phone the health app and stepz both show the same count.

No idea of the true count of steps yesterday, the Stepz app said 4,966, but I know that isn't right.

Both step apps seem to be working today and both sync with the Health app. I guess it just took time for them to settle...

Now I am waiting for the phone to finish downloading from the cloud to do an update to iOS 12. It seems odd that 2.2 G is taking this long to restore. Tomorrow if it isn't done, I'm going to call AT&T to see what they suggest.

4332 steps yesterday.  I really didn't expect to do much.  Most of the day was just visiting and "helping" in the kitchen.

8,118 steps yesterday. Just me and Baby Boo so just a regular day.

I walk around the house when I am talking on the phone so the calls from the kids got me a lot of steps.

That's a very good habit Barb. Sitting is the new cancer.
