Number of steps for a recorded walk in Apple Fitness

There is a way to get the estimates but it is messy and probably not worth it

First look at the workout in iPhone Fitness app

note the time elapsed .

Then in iphone Health app, browse, Activity, Steps, then at the bottom 'Show all data'

Tap on the date

then find the times and add them up

Note that the times do not correspond exactly to start and stop of the workout. Also the feed swaps between watch and phone.

I did say it probably was not worth it and that is why the workouts don't show them.

I would rely on the GPS distance, calories etc for your health monitoring,?and use the daily total steps against the recommended target for your age and gender in public health sites- usually around 10,000

Hello mildy3,

The individual workouts in the Fitness app may show distance but not necessarily steps in this particular area.

While I agree with LD150 when they say to look at the distance rather than the steps for individual workouts, you may not. I suspect there may be apps in the App Store that will do what you want. It might take a little searching. In a quick search, it looks like one called Pacer Pedometer & Step Tracker may do what you want.
