Mi Band 10 overcounting steps while cleaning (sweeping/mopping) – Any way to use GPS instead?
Hi everyone,
I recently gifted a Mi Band 10 to my mom, who works as a professional cleaner. She’s having a bit of an issue with step tracking accuracy: every time she uses a broom or mops the floor, the band registers those arm movements as steps. By the end of her shift, the count is way higher than it should be.
Interestingly, she previously used a Mi Band 5 and never encountered this problem (or at least it wasn't as noticeable).
A few questions:
Is there a way to force the band to rely more on GPS data for steps rather than just the accelerometer?
Are there any settings in the Mi Fitness app to adjust the sensitivity of movement detection?
Has anyone else noticed the Mi Band 10 being "more sensitive" to ghost steps compared to older models?
I’ve already checked the "Behavior Tagging" feature to see if training the algorithm helps, but I'm looking for a more permanent fix. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
