iPhone activity tracker

I ran 3.1 miles on an elliptical avg 5.1 miles per hour 37 minutes. My IPhone activity tracker says 2.9 miles. The iPhone Fitness App says 2.73. What is going on with these apps?

iPhone 13, iOS 16

Hi Eddluce,


Thanks for using Apple Support Communities. Make sure that all of your apps are reporting data to the Health app. It may be that your tracker isn't getting info from all sources. The following from Manage Health data on your iPhone, iPod touch, or Apple Watch - Apple Support can help.


"Add information from other apps

  1. Open the Health app.
  2. Tap your profile picture in the upper-right corner 
  3. Under Privacy, tap Apps. You can see apps that you already own that are compatible with Health. If you don't see an app, it might not be compatible. 
  4. Tap an app and turn on the health categories that you want that app to track.

You might also need to open the app and adjust its settings to allow it to share data with Health."


Take care.
