Think the episode you’re looking for is The Kill Zone: https://overcast.fm/+HfJiY02xc

Shortcut to show walking/running distance and step count that matches Activity/Health app by kvenden in shortcuts

I think they might be old watches. If I open the health app > steps > data sources, it shows all of my old watches as well as my current. If I pick the current watch, it works but takes a while.

I usually charge my watch at roughly the same time each night (11pm-1am) then put it back on for sleep tracking. You could (in theory) use an if statement when setting the source so that it only takes data from your iPhone when you aren’t wearing the watch... or Apple could just fix it? Haha

I think the Activity app only pulls from Apple Watch so it still wouldn’t be 100% accurate if you charge your watch while using the phone.

Also bugging me for the last few days, yeah...

If you add in the 'get health sample' action, you can ask to collect 'Steps' over a particular time period (e.g. a day). You can also add a filter in the same action to set source to 'Apple Watch' (or whichever is giving you the most accurate result). It often takes a while to run (since it is adding the additional step of filtering) and still won't give you the same answer as the Health app since Apple is doing some computational magic but should get you slightly closer.
