What does "splits" mean?

Some runners want to know their pace for a specific distance or want to check that they are running an even pace over the entire distance. For example if you ran 3 miles and wanted to know your pace for each mile you would have 1 mile splits.
Yes, iOS 9 mile splits added. Also it will import from other Apps. here is a run from RunGap which was imported from Garmin Connect (620).
Thanks guys. Yes tapping on it did show the pace for each mile. And yes it seems to be a new feature for iOS 9 . This is the first time I've been doing activity since the beta came out

1.6MPH walking?????Thanks guys. Yes tapping on it did show the pace for each mile. And yes it seems to be a new feature for iOS 9
How is that possible????That's a great improvement. Just curious...when you hit the share button on the top right, what options does it give you? Do it allow you to export the data out to third party sites?Thanks guys. Yes tapping on it did show the pace for each mile. And yes it seems to be a new feature for iOS 9
Not really an export but it's kinda cool.

I'm on vacation, just a walk on the beach1.6MPH walking?????
. What's a normal walking speed?
You were clearly walking too fast.I'm on vacation, just a walk on the beach
Naw, my normal walking speed is faster than some of my friends jogging speed. lol.
'Normal' walking speed is about 3.1MPH which is slow for a young health person (which you are if I remember correctly). You were walking at ½ that speed. It's just had to see how you could walk for that long at such a slow and leisurely of a pace. Were you purposely delaying between steps?I'm on vacation, just a walk on the beach
To think I was self conscious about posting my (a little below average for me, but VERY crowded race) Peachtree 10K time (official time 47:58).
Which was about the same time you posted for 1.3 miles.Wow, the activity app imports from other apps? So I could use Nike Running on my phone to run with and that would contribute to the Activity app's achievements? That's fantastic news!
On a side note, I was very disappointed to find several months of Activity app data wiped out when I restored my phone from factory settings and set up as a new phone. I thought that data would be stored in iCloud. If they are going to track achievements over years then this needs to happen.
Out of curiosity, did you lose your Health data too? It seems like you would lose that as well, since it does not link to an iCloud data store.
Did you restore from the back up? I restored from an iCloud backup and still have all my health data.
Julien, when you import a workout in iOS 9 into the Activity app, do you get credit for that with your activity rings? If so, that works perfectly got those of us who wear the Watch as our daily watch but a Garmin for running.
He set it up as a new phone. This is one of Apple's recommended actions when the phone is having issues (often battery), and the support & Geeks do not know why. They just tell you to wipe it out and not restore from backup.
No, but I also recorded the same run (Peachtree) with my
Watch's Workout App. So it only gives Activity App credit for the Workout App.EDIT: Just found a day that I forgot to start my
Watch for an Activity. Garmin via the RunGap App counted Exercise time and Move calories to my Rings/totals.Not sure how it determines (or if) Active calories from Resting (BMR) calories.

Have you tried to import when you haven't also tracked with the Watch's Workout app? I tried the iOS 9 beta for a day, but it was buggy for me. So I never got a chance to check out the improvements in the Activity app. Hoping to try again with the next public beta.No, but I also recorded the same run (Peachtree) with my
This. I had to. Too many issues clogging up the backup. It ran like a dream afterwards and all my syncing issues with the watch disappeared. Sadly, all my Activity data went with it.
