When a completed session is not in today's bar

A completed session belongs to its local end date, which may differ from the date you expected. It may also have been archived or ended outside the chart's rolling window.

A completed session belongs to its local end date, which may differ from the date you expected. It may also have been archived or ended outside the chart's rolling window.

Inspect the contributing records

Find the session in List, inspect its full end date, and check Archived sessions if needed. Confirm that the record has actually been stopped rather than remaining current.

The chart's compact hour labels are rounded, while individual records retain hours-and-minutes displays. A summary is a view of stored timing data, not a measurement of nutrition, mood, or medical outcomes.

Check the relevant distinction

A session begun today but still active has no completed end date to contribute to the chart. Its elapsed value is on Today until you stop it.

Interpret within the data limits

Avoid stopping an active session solely to make a bar appear. Record the event honestly; the chart will follow its completion rule.
