How can I add steps in my activity app on my Apple Watch? There’s no open to add a steps goal or change one of the preset goals to steps.

Unfortunately, you can't. Move, Exercise, and Stand are the only goals you can set in the Activity/Fitness app. If you would like to make this feature request to Apple, use this link:

Thanks. I’m disappointed. Is there a way to track miles walked/run? It only shows minutes under exercise goals.

That is not correct. Outdoor walks and runs collect Miles (or Km) as the basic measure. It also records time and heart rate graph. If you are not getting miles then something is missing.

Check iPhone, Watch app, My Watch tab, Privacy and chach Fitness Tracking is ON

Check iPhone, Watch app, My Watch tab, Health and ensure all your health data is in there

The basis Fitness Stats app is indeed free. There are the options for in-app purchase, but that is up to you.

BTW - there is no way to set STEP GOALS.

Update - It is correct you cannot set a steps goal but the workouts and daily summary shows them. The 10,000 goal is only in your head so it will not reward you for beating it.

If you reach your goal in a day, you reached it.

On your iPhone, you can download and install "Fitness Stats" and/or "Zones" from the App Store. Both are free apps and can do what you wish. I am sure there are others as well.

fitness stats is not free....I still can't figure out how to set STEP goals on my apple watch. It doesn't seem like it should be that difficult

I know there is a way to set STEP GOALS....but I just can't figure out how to do it

You may need to use a third party pedometer app.
