Read the metric definition
The Sessions summary counts completed records in main history. It is a count of entries, which differs from the number of calendar days with entries or the number of goals reached.
Inspect the contributing records
Compare the summary with List view when you need to understand it. Remember that an active session is current, and an archived session is retained elsewhere, so neither is part of that main count.
The seven-day chart adds completed main-history durations by local end date. An overnight session is assigned as a whole to its ending day, and multiple records ending that day are added together.
Check the relevant distinction
Two sessions on the same day add two records to the count. A single session spanning midnight still adds one record when completed.
Interpret within the data limits
More entries do not automatically mean a better routine or a more complete account. Tests, multiple short recordings, and different tracking habits can all affect the count.
Bar heights are scaled against the largest daily value in the current view, with a minimum scale. Read numeric labels for comparisons across different screenshots; visual height alone is not a stable unit.
A worked walkthrough
Suppose main history has four completed entries spread across three end dates, plus one active timer and two archived records. The Sessions summary refers to the four completed main-history entries. It is not three because there are three dates, and it does not add the active or archived records merely because they exist on the device. If you restore one archived record, the count increases even though you did not complete a new session at that moment. If you delete or archive one main-history entry, it decreases. This example shows why count changes should be interpreted alongside data-management actions. A larger number can reflect different recording habits or organization, rather than a meaningful change in a routine. For any comparison, state the counted unit first and check that the two datasets use the same scope.
