Q about steps in exercise tracker

[wonko]

Hi, Sorry if this has already been addressed, but can someone explain to me why the maximum number of steps (for daily count of steps from a pedometer) is 1400?  I tried to enter my total, and a message in red said the max value is 1400.  

I don't think this makes much sense.  An average stride is about 2.5 ft, so 2.5 ft = 1 step.  1 mile is approx 5283 ft.  So I would think (and my pedometer agrees) that 1 mile = 5283/2.5 or about 2113.2 steps.

Maxing the number of daily steps to 1400 is like saying we can't walk more than 2/3 of a mile.

Again, I could be wrong or this could have already been pointed out, either way, I look forward to the answer!

Thanks.

This is actually a bug that will be fixed this weekend. Please try again next week and the maximum number of steps should be 100,000.

Thanks,
