Global challenge data issue

[vikramdinesh]

I joined the global challenge for September today, but why does not Samsung Health app add the past 10 days data to the challenge?

S-Health starts counting from the day we join the challenge.. that is why, it is recommended to join on the 1st of every month

[vikramdinesh]

Yeah, but what if you forget to join on the 1st?

[vikramdinesh]

I can understand stopping count when people leave the challenge. But it makes no sense to count from the start date.

[TechieMann]

yeah I understand..
may be, by doing this, they want us to remember to visit S-Health, otherwise we might not care to open the app

[vikramdinesh]

Well, challenges are the only thing that need the app. For everything else there is a widget.

[TechieMann]

yeah, thats right
