Apps Steps per year....

[limebook]

Does anyone know of an app that can analyze health data to give you metrics per time period eg steps per year. I want to calculate how many steps I’ve done in the last year as a guide to how my shoes are wearing.
(I only wear my Apple Watch when I train and I mainly do HIT workouts.
Thanks

Have a look at wHealth Dashboard, it shows total per day/week/month or year for current period and past ones.
For steps, and for 50 other metrics

I only wear my Apple Watch when I train and I mainly do HIT workouts.

Be aware, Your phone can also contribute steps.

So even though you're only wearing the watch at the gym, your phone has probably been "helping" the rest of the time


go into the health app on the phone and find the steps page
at the bottom of that page, click "show all data", then click a date, it will show you a breakdown of which device contributed the steps

Below that is a data sources and access, it will give you a list of devices, and you can open those and see a total of steps for each day for that device. I seem to have about 20 watch entries, I've only had 4, (series, 0, 3, 3(broke the glass), 5) so not sure if it's every time you do an OS update or how it's broken down, Some entries only have a few days in them.



If you understand XML files, you can export one of those from the health app that will have all your data broken down.
but the file is massive, and you'll need to code your own script to deal with counting the numbers for you.

You’re better off tracking shoes by mileage. Most shoes for running can go 300-500 miles on a person, depending on their particulars, before the foam starts breaking down. They may not LOOK worn out but actually are.

Thank you all. I will hunt down some of these apps. I knew you were the right audience to ask.
[mention]waw74 [/mention] I considered the watch vs phone step count. I have a pretty sedentary lifestyle when my watch is not on. Maybe 2k steps at most.
It would match fairly closely to steps in my shoes.

I thought I had linked my Strava to map my gear usage when I got the shoes but doesn’t seem to have any data. @MJ22 thanks. I will look at that.
A bit different usage as my actual running distance is probably only 1/10 of my shoes usage.

Thank you all. I may look into that raw data at some stage too. Wasn’t aware I could look at it.
I assumed I could as I use HelathFit to sync all my fitness apps without an ongoing fee. Worth a look if you haven’t seen it.

I use QS Access to download the raw data as a csv file then import it into Excel & then create a pivot table to analyse the data by month year. Works really well for me.

You were 100% right
I will have to see my average steps at HIT workouts this week.
Just using my free activity stats for that period- it’s estimated I’ve 2714km
117+76km walking
126.5hrs of hit. I’d estimate I’d step about 3-4km in that time. At most 500km

It would be about 700km I’ve tread in my sneakers if those numbers are correct.

It’s interesting to consider the parameters that make up your health stats.
