Apple Watch step counting

It is very frustrating that my watch counts steps while I am seated in my recliner crocheting. I have mobility issues and I rely on step counts for daily activity. How can I fix this?

Hi daenalee3,


Thanks for posting in Apple Support Communities! If your activity is not tracking correctly, we suggest resetting the calibration:


  1. "On your iPhone, open the Watch app.
  2. Tap the My Watch tab, then tap Privacy > Reset Fitness Calibration Data." 

Privacy settings on iPhone

-Calibrate your Apple Watch for improved Workout and Activity accuracy


This will allow you to calibrate again with activity. If you need further assistance, contact Apple Support.


Cheers!
