I hope that I just misunderstood, but it seems that the step goal and heart rate measurement frequency are hard preset options in the watch face file. As if watch face was an standalone app obtaining these values on its own, not synchronized with anything else that collects these information too. To me it seems like redundant use of resources, but what is more important, if the watch face is made to work with these values, then it also should allow the user to set them.
Best way would be enabling user defined tag variables.
Or there would need to be number of versions of same watch face set with different step goals times different heart rate monitor presets. What should user do, if he wants to set different step goal when his condition changes? Ask designer to sell him new watch face with new settings?
What is the point in bringing new top fitness features like SPO2, ECG or BIA and then letting the face over it to be just another shallow standalone app, not sharing any already collected basic data?
