The Steptember app manually syncs with Google Health Connect (Android users) or Apple Health (iOS users). So first, make sure you connect your wearable e.g. Fitbit with Google Health Connect or Garmin with Apple Health.
Then, in your Steptember app account, select 'Log Your Steps' and choose 'Sync from Apple Health' or 'Sync from Google Health Connect'.
If you are recording your steps or activity any other way, then you will need to add your daily steps and activity manually.
