Issues with counting steps on Kwear

I got a Face from Reddit, “Gastly Companion”

The face consists on walking certain amount of steps to evolve a Pokemon. I stumbled upon some issues while trying to install both the apk on my phone and watch4, but when I did, the steps only counted on my phone. Not on my watch, no matter how many permissions I gave.

How can I make it so my steps update on my watch? I’m using both Google fit and Samsung Health on Watch4. It appears that Health connect makes it work on my phone.
