Q: my health app not working

I exercised for 30 minutes on the treadmill and the watch added less then 15 min of that time, I don't know about the steps because I did not check before I walked? How do you fix this?

    There are many threads onthis and there is useful information in the watch manual.

     

    In summary:

     

    The watch needs your arm to be moving to register steps

    The watch calibrates your step length with assistance from the phone's GPS (i.e during an outside walk or rn)

    It taks a while for the clainration to get right

    You might find resetting the watch helps

    Are you asking about the Health app, which is on your phone or the Actvity app which is on your watch? If you mean the Health app, you may be better off posting in the iPhone forum.
