Apple Watch series 3 steps question

Hi all, I have recently purchased the apple

watch series 3. I’ve swapped from a Fitbit so it’s very different. When I select workout outside walk, when I’m walking it doesn’t show how many steps I’m walking, where as with the Fitbit it shows the amount of steps I was doing during a walk which encouraged me to do more. Is there anyway of seeing how many steps on the apple watch whilst in workout mode ?

thanks

Apple Watch Series 3, watchOS 7

The apple watch doesn't measure steps in the context you mention,you can see a running total for the day here;

And you can see more info in the health app on the phone in the section "walking & running totals.

If your just interested in how many steps you've done,there is quite a few pedometer apps in the store.The apple watch was never meant to be a pedometer more of a workout tracker.
