Google Fixes Fitbit Calorie And Step Errors

Google says a fix is rolling out to correct Fitbit calorie-goal display errors that left 'calories left' blank or incorrect for some users over the past two weeks. Pixel Watch owners also reported doubled step counts and inflated cardio metrics after recent updates, and Google advises that reboots or clearing the Fitbit app cache can temporarily resolve double-counting while broader fixes deploy over the next few days.
