Because iOS does not tell widgets about your steps in real time. No step widget on iOS does — not this one, and not anyone else's. iOS wakes the app in the background from time to time, the app rebuilds the widget's picture then, and iOS allows only a limited number of those updates per day.

So the gazelle moves in hops of several minutes to tens of minutes rather than gliding. On a heavy walking day iOS may space those hops out further. Opening the app always brings the widget fully up to date immediately.

Open the Health app → your profile picture → Apps → Step Gazelle, and turn on Steps. Step Gazelle only ever reads; it will not write anything to Health.

Your goal is not a number we picked. Step Gazelle looks at your last 30 days and sets today's goal to one of your lower days — so it is always something you have actually done recently. As your quieter days get busier, the goal rises with them, up to your target. It is a floor you raise, not a target you chase.

A day off. Travel, illness, a rest day — excuse it, and that day stops dragging your floor down. Your goal reflects the days you meant to walk, not the ones life got in the way of.
