Thank you @YorkshireIoT for adding the sensor blood pressure and pulse.
I have another request - you can add a total number of steps sensor, so that it does not delete once a day.
Based on it, you will be able to create a monthly number of steps, a yearly number of steps.

Hi @rafkan20 ,
I have something similar on my own install just through creating a new input number helper and then using an automation to add the current steps at 23:55 every day.
Adding this into the integration would lead to more code bloat, more API requests, slower update time and a marginally higher CPU + network usage.
I think on balance this is something better done outside the integration in the way described above.
If you would like a more detailed explanation of how to do this within Home Assistant, let me know
