Is there a way to adjust the length of a step in the Health app?

i took 100 hundred steps and the app said i took 175!

Changing the step length wouldn't change the number of steps show. How did you determine the number of steps? Have you gone to the Steps page in Health, gone all the way to the bottom and tapped on "Show all data". The phone is pretty good about not double counting steps but sometimes it happens. If you have some other app that is linked to Health, that might also be feeding data.

Changing the length won’t change the amount of steps shown. But even the slightest movement that your phone could consider you talking a step will count. Even if you drop your on your couch it could think it’s you walking up the stairs. Fitbits are much better tracking distance and how many steps your ACTUALLY taken then phones are

There is already a very helpful thread regarding that issue. You can find it here:

I am walking on a treadmill 3 mi a day and my Apple Health always under counts my activity. I wear an apple watch and don't have my phone on me. How is it getting this data and is there any way to make it more accurate?
