I use an LG v20 phone and I noticed today the Samsung Health did not pick up on the pedometer while my watch was charging. It seemed to detect activity but no steps.

The LG Health app does show the steps but I can't figure out a way to sync those to S Health. Is there any way to do this?

It looks like Google fit and LG Health can sync but it seems there is barrier between them and Samsung. Is this just another quirk with not having a Samsung phone with the watch?
 
I just found the Body sensor permissions were not set by default on Samsung Health. Perhaps that was the issue.
