Guides
Written from the questions people actually ask — on Reddit, in Apple's forums, in app reviews — and from building an app that lives inside this exact problem. No fluff, no filler, honest about what works and what doesn't.
Apple Watch · walking pads
The Watch counts wrist swings, not footsteps. Why steps vanish while you type, every workaround rated honestly, and how to record the belt itself.
Apple Health · how syncing works
Health can't pair with a treadmill and never will. What “syncs with Health” really means, why workouts arrive without steps, and the one question to ask any pad app.
Apple Health · data sources
Synced steps sitting in All Recorded Data while the daily total ignores them. How Health picks one source per moment, and the reorder that fixes it.
Accuracy
They will never agree, because they measure different things. The verdict metric by metric, and why calibration doesn't fix a desk walk.
FitShow · troubleshooting
Distance arrives, steps don't. What owners report, why the failures are structural, the settings worth checking first, and the alternative on the same pads.
