Fitness app problem… I walk 5 million steps today!

Hi…. My fitness app suddenly went haywire and now I walk millions of steps daily! Anyone face this problem before?


I tried delete both fitness and health and reinstall…. It didn’t work.

Hello Dreamotion,


Woah what a workout!


I don't think the problem is with the Health and Fitness apps. My advice would be to do a hard restart your iPhone - Force restart iPhone - Apple Support


If you want to remove this from the Health app,


  1. Open Health
  2. Tap on Browse
  3. Tap on Activity
  4. Select the category you want to remove from (Lets say Steps).
  5. Scroll down and tap on Show All Data
  6. Tap on Edit



Remove the data that is being added that you don't like / isn't accurate.


If you still have problems, I'd recommend bringing it in for a Genius Bar appointment


I hope this helps!
