The Health app on my iPhone 6 Plus is not recording flights climbed correctly.

The Health app on my iPhone 6 Plus is not recording the number of flights of stairs I climb correctly.  It seems I have to go up the stairs 2 plus times before it records 1 flight climbed.  Are there any settings that I can change?

As far as we can figure out, the hardware is working, but the software isn't, and there aren't any settings to fix it:

I went into Apple Store and asked for help, and the genius said the software is not ready for production and to wait for updates.

  • My health app on my iPhone 6 plus is not displaying any info

    How do I get the health app on my iPhone 6 plus to start back displaying the information?  It stopped displaying the steps, walking+running & flights climbed a couple days ago. I have turned my phone off & on several times & still nothing. The phone is calculating my steps because my "myfitnesspal" app is picking up my steps from my iPhone.

    Next step would be setting it up as new device and restoring from the latest backup:

    The health data should be included in the iCloud backup, or in your encrypted backup made by iTunes:

  • Is anyone having problems with the Health App and Withings?

    After upgrading to ios 8.1 I am still having a problem getting my Withings Health Mate data to correctly update my Healt Dashboard. The information that does show up on the different Dashboard widgets is way off. For example, I today walked 2400 steps according to Withings, but the Health Dashboard shows 10,700 steps (720,000 in smaller print on another line). It further shows my daily average at 313,000 steps! Ridiculous.
    Walking/Running distance for the days shows 22.5 miles with a daily average of 108 miles.....I'm not Barry Allen/The Flash.

    My problems with the Healt App are all over the map. The information on Withings Health Mate is totally accurate, and updates immediately.  I have their scale (since 2011) and wireless blood pressure monitor. Also, I find the heart rate senson on the iPhone 6 to work well, every time.
    This issue for me is with Apple's Health app. I get ridiculous readings on the Dashboards. For example, it shows my daily average in steps as 170,688, and miles walked at 80. Hardly! Additionally, the Dashbord widgets will disappear/reappear for no reason. I have tried switching the priority of data sources for the steps dashboard between Withings and my iPhone 6 (because it is indicated that the top source governs the dashboard info), to no avail.
    Lastly, I don't know how to interpret the infomration on the individual dashboards. On the same line as the word "Steps" there is a number, i.e. 14,272 steps, and just under it the word "Today." However, when I switch from "Day," "Week,," "Month," and "Year," those number don't change. Below the word Today is a number (which changes all the time), and at the bottom of the widget, just above the month (October now) is the number 1,149,749. Nice.
    I would like to get the Apple Watch next year, but if the Health App cannot be fixed I may not.

  • 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

  • The music app on my iPhone 5 plays the same song over and over again.  It will not sequence through an album or playlist.  What can I do?

    The music app on my iPhone 5 will not sequence through albums or playlists.  It plays either the first or selected song over and over again.  What can I do?

    Turn off repeat.

  • My music app on my iphone 5 is not working properly since I downloaded ios7.

    The music app on my iphone 5 is not working properly since I downloaded ios7.
    Sometimes I start to use the music app and then part way though a track it stops. I try to re-start it with no joy. I'm also finding the touch screen is less responsive. Can any help me fix the issue or will I need to take it into the store?

    Removing the SIM has no affect on the power of the phone. It is just the part that facilitates connecting to your carrier. Try holding the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo on the screen and then release the buttons. The phone should reboot. You may need to hold the buttons together for 15-30 seconds.

  • My Health app on my iPhone 6 Plus isn't tracking anything.

    I just got my iPhone 6 Plus and I love it! it is however having one issue that I'm not sure how to fix. In the health app it should be tracking my steps, flights of stairs, and running. It hasn't tracked anything and I don't know what to do. There is no specific setting tab for the Health app.
    Thanks

  • How do i delete or remove the Tips app and the health app that apple added to my phone on the last update 8.0.2?

    How do i remove the Tips app and the Health app that apple added to my iphone on the last update? Update 8.0.2? I didn't want these added to my phone. I have to remove apps every time there is an update. After the phone is updated I reinstall the apps I removed. After 8.0,2 there was not enough room for me to reinstall my apps because they added the Tips app and the health app. How do I remove them? When you hold your figure on the apps they added, X's pop up on all of the apps i've installed, but not on the ones that come on the iPhone and the ones that they added on this last update. Please help.

    They force you to buy health insurance these days and now apple forces you to keep spyware apps on your phone.
    Oh, knock off the fearmongering. None of those apps are spyware. Health stores all of its data on the phone. It will only back it up to your computer if you do an encrypted back up. The only data it collects on its own are steps, stairs and distance traveled. Anything else in it is information you've explicity authorized it to collect from anothr app you've installed. You're not required to put anything in Passbook, Podcasts, iBooks or Newstand.

  • The Health app in iOS 8?

    I have used this app with varying results since receiving my iPhone 6+.  Hopefully, it is still in its infancy and will improve.  One question, among many, here's how it measures and records "flight climbed". I am up and down stairs practically all day, as I lived in a two-story house.  It has yet to register more than one flight climb.  How does this work?  I see no selection to turn in either on or off.  Has anyone else had similar issues with this or other parts of the Health app.

    The information collected in encrypted on your iPhone and Apple cannot use it or view it. If you back up to iCloud it is required that the backup is encrypted as well.
    Here is some further information:

  • 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:

  • 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.

    Submit your feedback directly to Apple using the appropriate link on the Feedback page:

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

  • I have been unable to get the health app to work

    I have a iPhone 6 and my wife a 5C, the Apple Health Apps works on my phone but not on hers. My neighbor has the same problem, it doesn't record record distance or steps. I have them in the dashboard but nothing happens.

    This is because the iPhone 5C does not have a motion coprocessor: a chip that calculates and records your motion like steps and distance. Your iPhone 6 has one (it's called A8). In this case your wife can use a Health supported third party app (like Nike+ Running) to report this data to the Health app.
    Hope this helps!
