Amid the rising popularity of the Fitbit app, Google has confirmed a bug in the Fitbit app of the Pixel Watch that counts calories inaccurately. 

According to 9to5Google, Pixel Watch users have noticed that calories counted on the Pixel Watch differ from those of other smartwatches or fitness trackers, such as the Galaxy Watch 5 or Apple Watch.

As smartwatches will never be 100 per cent accurate in terms of calorie counts, it was odd to notice Google's new smartwatch varying so much.
