The iPhone 4s, 5 and 5c do not have the Motion Sensor co-processor so they will not record steps. You can use another app to record the data and the iOS 8 Health App will use it as a data source (check out Health Mate by Withings, Nike+ Running apps or others here).


The iPhone 5s, 6 and 6 Plus all have a motion co-processor. Data will automatically appear in the Health App on these phones.
