I Notice while driving that my step count is calculat steps while driving in my car. I know others are having the same issue. My question is How do I prevent it? My whole day feels like a lie!!! Lol. Is Apple doing anything to remedy this issue? Any other thoughts??
Apple Watch, watchOS 2.1
I did the steps in calibration. Today was the first I noticed it counting steps while I was In car. I was actually the passenger the car. It was approximately a 3 hour ride.
Hi
Calibrating your watch will enable it to more accurately estimate various fitness and activity-related results. Calibration teaches your watch how your arm movements relate to your stride lengths at different speeds when you are walking and/or running.
More information:
Use the Activity app on your Apple Watch - Apple Support
Use the Workout app on your Apple Watch - Apple Support
Calibrating your Apple Watch for improved Workout and Activity accuracy - Apple Support
Calibration is an ongoing process: whenever you walk or run outside using your iPhone and the Workout app, your watch will continues to calibrate the accelerometer.
If you would prefer to reset the data and start again:
On your iPhone, in the Watch app, go to: My Watch (tab) > Privacy > Motion & Fitness > tap on Reset Calibration Data.
How do I keep my Apple Watch from counting steps while driving?
