Ratings and reviews

I like the app but wish I could adjust the 'year' when manually entering data. Technically I think you can by swiping a ton of times through the dates and you'll go back to the previous year but you need to keep swiping until you think you get to the right year. I was able to manually enter the data a few months back but now I'm not seeing any sort of way to edit the 'year' of the body weight information.

**Update: the sleep score is still based only on the most recent sleep period, which sucks if i wake up with my kids during the night. It does show all the data for the whole night now, but it would be so much better if the score was based on the WHOLE night instead of just part of it.** The sleep function is the most important to me and since the last update I hardly ever get any data. If I have to get up with my baby during the night I can't access any data prior to that. Very disappointing.

This update is terrible. My steps aren't being recorded accurately. I have my phone in my pockets during my workouts and long walks, and this app doesn't record my activity any longer. If I walk from my bed to the bathroom, it will capture those few steps, but when I putting in the work that truly counts, it doesn't capture them. Before this newer update, the app captured all of my steps. I like to see my progress throughout the day, so I'm disappointed that the app no longer is useful.
