iOS10 - iPad with M7/M8/M9 - Healthkit?

[honglong1976]

Hi,

just a quick question to those with an iPad using iOS10 beta. Is there a health app now for step tracking?

(nothing in iOS9) 🙁

Thanks in advance 🙂

No

ok, that sucks! what does everyone use to track steps via the iPad?

(thanks for replying btw)

You can probably (or maybe can) find an App that Health can export steps from your iPhone and view on your iPad.


Are you using an Watch, your iPhone or a 3ed party device to track? If using an Watch you could probably use a iPhone App like this one installed on your iPad.

After investigating, there are no apps with use M7 on this iPad.

Although it has the motion and fitness option, downloading any app with uses M7 doesn't work. Total bummer!

So you want to use your iPad for step counting and not just viewing the step info????? As in carry your iPad in your front pocket all day everywhere you go to record your steps????😵😵 'Is that an iPad in your front pocket or are you just happy to see me' 😀😀😀

I would be happy with either.

Step counting via the iPad (which goes in my bag, not pocket! 🙂)
or viewing my healthkit data

doesn't seem to do either 🙁

I had a nexus 7 before. That used google fit to track my steps and synced across any other android devices.

Now i am android free but finding limitations! 🙁
