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, 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).

Health app, count steps but not count distance and running

Hi,
After update 8.2, health app not count distance and running.
Only count steps, today have 2.951 steps but total distance is 0,01km
Somebody has the same problem?
Thanks

I found a workaround!
Launch Health, open Walking+Running Distance, tap Share Data, and check all apps in here, find them, (backup if you like, ) delete them, and done!

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.

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.

The App Nike Running is not working well with my Ipod touch 5 th generation It always gives me the wrong distance and velocity. Is it normal? What could I do?

Health app not measuring walking distance

The health application is working perfectly for step counting,but does not measure correctly the waking distance.The problem began at 11 or 12 of March,I think after the iOS 8.2 update.Before this date it worked absolutely fine.So everyday I have an average of 5.500 steps and of 0.17km

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.

Health App distance stuck...

Health App step count issues

I noticed on 12/27/2014 that I had a huge spike in total steps recorded by the health app on my 6. It recorded 18,298 steps at 07:35 !
The screen shots below show that the app created this record. I am not using any other external devices to track data at this time, but how it can possibly record 18 thousand seems as if something major is wrong.
Has anyone had similar issues ?

The iPhone measures both steps and distance separately. It measures distance using GPS functionality and steps using the accelerometer. So it doesn't need to know step length to find distance. It DOES know it, however; under Location Services there is a function called "Motion Calibration." That's what its for.

Health App not collecting data

I have a iPhone 6 and for the first three weeks the Health app worked just great. Now since about one week it doesn't seem to collect any data anymore. The dashboard just shows no data on steps, distance and stairs. Also all historical data is gone. I also have Fjuul and Withing apps, which both are counting steps like before so obviously there is nothing mechanically wrong with the movement processor. Any ideas what to do to get the Health app up and running again? Naturally I have rebooted the phone several times so that doesn't help.

EdHDC,
I'm sorry that I don't have a fix for your issue, but I did want to mention that if you end up in a scenario where you get things working and find that you have data prior to your fix that doesn't automatically get imported in, we have released an app specifically for importing data into HealthKit / Health App. It requires data in a CSV (comma separated value) format currently, but that is the format that most apps provide for their exported files.
The app is called Health Importer and more information is available on the App Store at: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/health-importer/id930943780?ls=1&mt=8
Hope it's a helpful tool for you or others who come across the post!

Health app: bug in daily average for sleep in year view?

I've manually entered sleep time for everyday since August 2014 in the Health app (on iOS 8, on an iPhone 6).
In Day, Week, and Month view, the daily average seems correct (resp. 7h49, 7h09, 7h09).
But it is obviously wrong in the Year view (12h36mn).
Also the graph in the Year view is wrong. (The bar for August is twice as high as the one for October for instance.)
(I've check -3 times- that these manually entered data were correct.)
Does anybody experience the same problem?
Or as any idea what the bars, in the Year Graph, are supposed to represent? (daily average for each month? or total sum of sleep time for the month?)
Thanks in advance!
Antoine

The Health App really serves as a conduit between a variety of other apps that wouldn't ordinarily be able to talk to each other. The App Store has a section for apps that work with Health to be able to sync data.
You can submit feedback to Apple here:

Don't stress to much if you can't find a section dedicated to Health. Pick something under "iPhone" and just make sure you explain it well.

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.

Fitbit Activity to Health App Successfully Working

I was able to get my Fitbit activity (total steps, total floors climbed, total distance walked, total calories burned, sleep, and weight). You will need to install the Jawbone Up app (purple icon) and the IFTTT app. Create accounts in both apps. Log into the Up app and have the app send info to the Health app. Log into the IFTTT app and add the Fitbit and Up Channels. Add the Log Fitbit Activities to Jawbone Up, Fitbit Sleep to Jawbone Up, and Log Fitbit Weight to Jawbone Up recipes (the will be under the Fitbit Channel and the icon with have the Fitbit logo on the left and the Up icon on the right). You will get a notification on your phone from the IFTTT app when the recipe runs.
Hope this helps everyone.

HI, I'll see. There is also other app called SYnc solver for Fitbit. but I'd like something free because if Fitbit deny the access to data by third party app these app stop working.

MMine were syncing and now they have disappeared. I am running Withings and MyFitnessPal on iPhone 6plus

Health app

Hi,
I downloaded the new software but somehow the options in the health app are not working. For example, steps and walking + running distance are not working- I am not sure how to turn it on ( not even if we have to). Can anyone help me please?
Many thanks

Where in the Health App can you record glucose? I look in the "all" and can't find it.
