Band 2 and Health App not matching steps

Band reading 10k steps, MS Health reading an absurd 50k. Anyone see this before?

Never seen it. Is your phone also tracking steps?

I haven't changed any setting. It is set to supplement the band, or however they phrase it, but that's been turned on (by default) since I've had the phone.

Yeah, but I've never seen/heard what logic is used to make sure it "supplements" and doesn't double-count. Since I rarely wear my phone when I don't have my Band, I've turned it off.

I don't get the disparity every day, it just randomly happened this one time. It shouldn't have anything to do with a setting that has been unchanged for months.

edit: I should have said, I did turn it off after reading your comment. It doesn't make any sense to have it on unless you don't wear the band most of the time, maybe save some battery at least
