Health app tracking distance

II've recently installee v8.3 and find that my health app is now not tracking distance, only steps taken and flights climbed. I've switched phone off to no avail. Any ideas please?

Did it ever do that? As far as I remember, you'll need supported accessory to do that.

  • Health App tracking issue

    Since the latest update to the Apple Health App.  My daily calories burned no longer tracks properly on the dashboard graph.  It will show what's loaded from other apps and manually enter correctly for the current day, but prior days are gone.  This has happened every day since the last update.  All the other information like step, distance ran, etc are still tracking correctly.  Is this a common issue with the update?  or this their something I can do to correct the problem?

  • Health app on my iPhone 4s

    How do I activate the Health app on my iPhone 4s. My husband has the new iPhone 6 and his Health app tracks his steps automatically.

    Even though the Health app is (I believe) installed on the 4s, the 4s itself does not have the required hardware built-in (M7/M8 co-processor) to track movements, etc. I believe you need to use external sensors connected to the phone via Bluetooth for the motion tracking used in conjunction with the Health app

  • Wrong distance in Health app

    For two weeks now the Health app on my iPhone6 shows wrong data for distance travelled. For example it says I took about 8000 steps but that converts to just 500 metres. I restarted th IPhone but that didn't help. Anybody an idea? (ios 8.2)

    Same problem here. App Health tracks steps but not Walking + Running Dinstance since iOS 8.2 update

  • Health app: bad walking distance since i upgrade 8.2 but good steps number

    Bad walking distance since i upgrade 8.2 (but good steps number)
    I am using Health app on my Iphone 6 every day since 6 month and since i upgrade, i got  ridiculous number for kilometers for example 0,4 and 8453 steps ...i have walk approximatively 6 kilometers.
    I have noticed that the speed display for weeks, months, years was very good after the upgrade , but there is somme trouble with tracking …
    Any idea ?

    Hey Makwassie,
    Thanks for the question. If I understand correctly, the steps taken are not being updated in the Health App. I would recommend that you read these articles, they may be helpful in troubleshooting your issue.
    If your Health data doesn't update on your iPhone or iPod touch - Apple Support

    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Have a good one,

  • Health app, is it possible to display weight and distance in imperial rather than metric ?

    health app, is it possible to display weight and distance in imperial rather than metric ?

    Hao,
    first of all, you are using a chart which has three options for updates if the chart is "full":
    Strip chart (default)
    Scope chart
    Sweep chart
    These are called "update mode". Test the modes yourself.
    Also you have to know that you will not likely have an integer number of periods of your signal in the display of the chart. Therefore, a continuous signal will "move" the graph from update to update.
    You can implement some algorithm to discard data to maintain a static "trigger" level for display, but as stated, it will leave gaps in the signal. These gaps are not a concern unless you use the displayed signal for analysis (e.g. FFT).

  • Do I have to use another fitness app in order for the new health app to track my fitness? Or does the health app have its own gps tracking? It's not working for me.

    I have the iphone 6 ios 8.0.2. The health app hasn't worked for me yet. I have pinned things to my dashboard but it isn't updating anything. I curious to know if I need a third party app in order for it to track? Or if it is supposed to be tracking?

    The iPhone 6 has a built in M8 coprocessor that tracks steps. Start with the manual:

  • Health app inaccurate in recording Calorie and Carbohydrate tracking

    The Health App on my iPhone 5s, iOS 8.0.2, does not record data accurately.
    It doesn't matter if my input is manual or via another tracking app.
    Carbohydrates are way off.

  • Health app stopped tracking

    I got 6 plus on 19th and health was tracking steps, flights climbed, walking + running distance till 24th.
    Suddenly on 24th it stopped working and all the history got deleted.
    I didn't update to 8.0.1. Only thing I did on 24th was restarting my phone.
    Any thoughts.

    I had the same problem.  I think the IOS 8.0.2 update broke it.  Here's a work around:
    1. Select Steps (or whatever you are trying to measure)
    2. Select Share Date
    3. Select Edit (on the top right corner)
    4. Look at the data sources list - there should be two: the iPhone itself and Health.
    5. Move the iPhone above Health so that it is a higher priority than Health.
    6. Repeat for anything else that is not working.
    After I did that it starting showing the correct number of steps.
    Hope this helps!

  • Health App needs to add Blood Glucose and A1c for tracking. Eliminate some of the items under nutrition.

    Health App needs to add Blood Glucose tracking and A1c tracking. Plus there are way to many items under Nutrition. How many people keep track of their intake of Biotin?

  • Where is menstruation tracking in the health app?

    Just got my iPhone 6 and was looking at the health app.  I cannot find menstruation/ovulation tracking in the app.  Am I missing it?  Or do no women or married men work at Apple?  Seems like a basic thing re: health, and one that should be included in the app.   If I am missing it, please me know where it is.

    Meanwhile, take a look at some of the other apps available in the App Store. iPeriod seems pretty good.

  • There is no period tracker on the health app

    I just wanted to know why and if there was a reason why the health app wouldn't have a period tracker on it.

    Apple does not discuss its decision-making processes. You may let Apple

  • IPhone 6 Health App not tracking anything

    I was hoping 8.1 would fix the Health app, but it's still not working for me.
    It doesn't track any steps.  When I restart the app my dashboard is reset to empty and I have to add things back on the Dashboard.
    Is anyone else experiencing similar issues?

    nappin,
    Mine seems to be working much better now. I find that there is often a lag of up to 15 minutes between the data being taken and the time it shows up in the app.
    I one instance, it shows that I climbed a flight of stairs at 10:03, but it was not added to the health app until 10:15. For other data the two times match.
    I don't know why your data does not display on the dashboard. Perhaps you can find an answer in some of the other threads on this topic.
