How to view your step count on your Samsung Galaxy device
Samsung Health uses the pedometer on your connected device, such as your Galaxy smartphone or Watch, to measure your steps. Your step count is an estimate that can be affected by various movements and where you keep your phone. Distance is calculated based on your step count and estimated stride length, which depends on your height and walking cadence.
