  I don’t want to sound like I’m out to break your game, I have no such intention. This makes me immediately think of the tools available to Pokémon go cheating, specifically for hatching eggs which counts steps similar to this game. There is a tool called defit that’s designed to inject believable step histories to your google fit data to fool the game into believing you went on a 30 mile hike in the middle of the night. Pogo never managed to stop that despite cracking down on a lot of other tools. My assumption was always that the spoofed data landed too close to believable and they would have started banning legitimate players if they tried. Another comment here mentions your game requires google play services, so is it working with google fit data the same way as pogo? Is the defit data identifiable for you?
