I have an s4 mini and the Gear 2 and am having a hard time using sHealth and the pedometer; are there other Fitness apps I can use to sync steps from my Gear 2?
Thank you,
Shane

I don't keep track of steps with the accelerator in the s4 mini, I only use the watch, are you saying you enabled Both and the #'s are not the same? I'm not surprised, I bet the watch on your arm and phone in your hand/ pocket have much different ranges of motion. I would use 1 or the other.i use a note 3 and gear 2...it seems like the built in pedometer on the watch and the s-health pedometer on the phone are not linked...i had them both running figured they synced up but the steps were nowhere near close...weird...anyone else experiencing that or know how to link them?
call me old fashioned but i feel like integration there would have made sense lol
Samsung for whatever reason created both of these apps; why I don't know. And why only 1 works I don't know. Sorry I couldn't be more help.
I would have guessed it was a calculation x steps = x distance. For me when I do 10,000 steps it is 5 miles.Been using my gear2 and sgs5 for just over a week now and find the steps / distance confusing...on one day I walked 13000 steps and traveled 1.1 mil while on another I walked 8300 Steps but traveled 3.9 mil - how is this possible? / does the gear2 measure distance by gps/physical distance only, rather than the theoretical distance of the steps taken?
So should I just use fitness and the Widget for fitness step counter till sHealth is compatible with s4 mini?Ton of difference between the apps. However depending on your phone, versions of shealth may not be compatible. Samsung is supposed ly working on a generic shealth app for all devices.

Mine would do that on an s5, not on the s5 mini. (in s Health)In S Heath on my S5, I go into pedometer and click on the 3 dots setting tab upper right. From there, you can select device data to view and your watch will sync with the phone and reset daily.
