iPhone 6 not counting flights of stairs

i just went went back into the health app, chose fitness then flights climbed and after about a minute the data showed up ther so not sure why the delay (didn't notice that on a 5s) but is working.

WIth regards to the question from DeAugie, no you don't need to set anything up for the m8 processor to capture, it does this by default and allows access in health app. The only time you need to setup anything in relation to the m8 coprocessor is when using other apps that want access then you need to grant or deny as applicable. You can check those apps at any time in settings, privacy motion activity to see what are accessing that chip data.

Just a quick update from my side, still not seeing flights climbed tracked correctly. Have done about 6 flights already and Health is showing 3. Just completed another one and was watching the phone while walking the flights and nothing registered. Not sure if there is some time out set on the gyro so it can calculate when to stop a flight etc for calculation but will raise a bug on this to see if there is something we are missing

Is it tracking yours correctly ? With mine some is not being tracked at all and therefore the number represented is inaccurate

I opened a bug on this, hopefully just something we're doing wrong or a simple fix

Found something else interesting tonight regarding delays of data in flights climbed. It was still not reporting accurately by this evening so I went into the health app, selected flights climbed, then show all data, picked a certain time of day that showed a flight and saw something interesting. The delay I had mentioned and others too can be seen in this data. Again by following the steps above you see the date and time the step/flight was actually achieved and then the 'Date Added To Health'. In some case I see this was added almost immediately (say within a minute of the action) but in other cases (today was a good example) I had a flight of stairs walk at 11am yet it was added to health (according to the data) at 2:20pm.

Now this may or may not be an issue, maybe the M8 caches this data and offloads at a certain point but it has me wondering if that delay may be causing data to either disappear or inaccurately represent. Take a look yourselves using the steps above and see what yours say, would be interesting to correlate if others are also seeing data not register between these gaps or delays.

Again don't know at this time if this is working as it should (delay) but it does make me wonder why some data is written immediately whereas the same data at other times is delayed. Maybe this is something that needs calibrating in a later update or indeed could be related to some of the health app issues Apple is already working but at least wanted to share what I was seeing on mine in hopes it helps.

Also for completeness I also noticed this delay in Steps as well again some recorded instantly, some delayed

Thanks
