Hello ChloeMS,


Thank you for reaching out to Apple Support Communities, and we'll be happy to help in any way we can. We understand you have questions about the walking steadiness feature. The related article at the top of the page is a great place to start. As the article states: "Put your iPhone in your front pocket or in a pocket near your waist while walking." 


We recommend following those instructions for the most accurate reading as that is the best place to keep accurate track of your movement.


We hope this helps.


Cheers!
