    just got new phone. On old one, I saw my weekly steps graph (each day) and on same graph, it showed weekly average. Now it's farther down the page. Can I set it up to see it on one graph?

  • Question
    Will steps register if the phone is in my hand, my pants pocket, or my purse?
    Community Answer
    Yes, as long as you set up health and fitness. You can turn off your phone, but not complete power off.
