I unfortunately found myself jammed up on crutches this past week and will be on them for the next good while, and after I checked my app through the last few days I find myself disappointed. I have a bag the attaches to my crutches to help me move around and carry essentials however the app counter doesn’t register my steps. An odd issue seeing as my crutches are acting as my leg while I’m injured. I guess you could say im confused as to why it wouldn’t still track the movement. I cant be the only person using pikmin that has to use some form of assistance device to get around.

That’s strange I walked with crutches for some time and still counted steps fine.. still had the phone in my pocket though. However I don’t think it’s an issue with the game itself, more likely your phone or the way you’re carrying it.
